Cannabis is a unique consumer-packaged good. If you purchase a gram of shatter or an eighth of flower, you’ll also need to have the means to consume it. So as a retailer, to properly serve your clientele, you’ll need to sell cannabis accessories right alongside the cannabis products.
Yet, despite the vast majority of cannabis retailers offering accessories, getting them into inventory is often quite frustrating. Unlike the provincial cannabis catalogues, accessory order updates are incredibly time-consuming.
With this in mind, we are pleased to announce that the TechPOS ecosystem now makes cannabis accessory orders simple. Here’s how.
Easy Ordering, Easy Inventory Updates
TechPOS has recently added a brand new feature to make ordering accessories from your favourite distributor much simpler. We already facilitate easy ordering of cannabis products from provincial distributors, but now we help you place your bong, pipe, and dab tool orders as well.
We are partnering with a growing number of leading cannabis accessory vendors to simplify the ordering process. Now, through the TechPOS dashboard, you have instant access to the latest accessory catalogues from your favourite distributors.
When ready, quickly and efficiently import your order into our system. No need to manually input each item one by one. And when it comes time to receive the order? Don’t worry, the process is just as streamlined.
Here are just a few of our current accessory partners:
- 420 Panda Distribution

Increase Cannabis Accessory Sales with These 3 Tips
Cannabis and Accessories Combos
It makes sense to pair cannabis accessories with flower or concentrate. These products naturally go hand in hand.
Sell more accessories by creating a product combo: flower and rolling papers or concentrates and dab rig. Plus, when done right, combo sales can help move older products that are lingering in your inventory.
TechPOS allows you to create product combos directly through the terminal. Budtenders can access combo information from the POS dashboard, and discounts are automatically applied when items are scanned.
BOGO Campaigns
Everyone loves a Buy One, Get One campaign. Offering BOGO on pipes, bubblers, papers, or bongs is a great way to sell more accessories (and also increase average cart size). This is a great opportunity for upselling. Get your budtenders to promote the BOGO sale at till and offer helpful product suggestions.
Not convinced? Did you know BOGO campaigns are a proven strategy for encouraging store visits and purchasing decisions? A study in a non-regulated industry discovered that BOGO sales are the preferred sale type by most customers.
Just remember that Canadian law doesn’t allow you to give away free products or accessories, but you can offer a “Buy One, Get One for a Discount,” provided it meets provincial discount criteria. If you have questions about what promotions or prices are allowed under Canadian and provincial law, speak with a compliance consultant or lawyer.
Digital Signage
Why not promote your cannabis accessory line through in-store digital signage? Proudly, TechPOS offers an omnichannel solution that integrates your business dashboard with your POS and digital signage, as well as eCommerce.
Our inventory management system is interconnected. We ensures any updates you make to inventory, price, or product details are immediately updated on signage.
Want to swap out which accessory category you’re promoting? Make the switch smoothly through the dashboard. Want to adjust the price? Easy. It ensures no manual updates and reduces the risk of data entry errors on product information.
Helping Retailers and Distributors Sell More Cannabis Accessories
We are streamlining the entire business of cannabis accessories in Canada — for the retailer and the vendor. What was once a time-consuming, frustrating manual process prone to error is now integrated into the TechPOS All-In-One Solution.
