Epson teams with KlickTrack to help cannabis retailers thrive

October 30, 2019

Epson America, Inc., a supplier of point of sale solutions, is partnering with KlickTrack, a POS software and inventory management provider, to provide a POS solution for the cannabis industry.

Together, Epson and KlickTrack offer a fully-functioning POS ecosystem to aid with managing receipts, shop queues, inventory, processing incoming cash and other core retail functions. The solution, according to a press release, can save retailers time and hassle and help staff maximize sales, thereby improving the customer experience. It also helps facilitate record keeping while adhering to compliance issues, a critical aspect of the highly regulated industry.

"Combining KlickTrack's powerful new technology with our intelligent POS printers offers the perfect solution for the recreational and medical natural products market. Together we can save retailers time and maximize sales while minimizing their investment risks," Tom Kettell, director of commercial channel for North America at Epson America, Inc., said in the release.

Epson OmniLink TM-T88VI printers can keep the queue running smoothly through its server direct print technology, which prints online orders from a web server directly to the printer. These receipt printers can also help manage copies of receipts which, when provided to the customer, prove retailers are collecting all the relevant taxes and dispensing product. 

Retailers can use the POS system to send a backup copy of each receipt to the cloud or store the backup offsite. Customers' buying histories and preferences are tracked, including favorite products, frequency and volume of purchases, and when appropriate for medical dispensaries, their patient status. This allows retailers to make the right recommendations, vastly improving their overall experience within the natural products retail environment.
