What’s the number one reason to put TechPOS front and center in your cannabis retail store? If it’s not for our continued innovation within our software ecosystem, it’s probably because we’ve never had a return on any of our POS hardware. We have a less than 1 percent defect rate.

At TechPOS, we’ve built the entire suite of durable hardware components to simplify budtending and business management because we know that if the hardware glitches, that translates into angry customers and decreased sales. 

Our number one priority has always been to develop resilient technologies, including the most fundamental parts like the physical POS, printer, scanner, and cash drawer.

The TechPOS Software and Hardware Ecosystem

TechPOS is an innovative combination of software and hardware specifically designed to serve cannabis retailers. 

POS Software

Our software is based on Microsoft’s Windows operating system. This isn’t by chance. Our developers chose Windows as it is the most secure operating system available today. 

As per Microsoft, security “measures include built-in advanced encryption and data protection, robust network and system security, and intelligent safeguards against ever-evolving threats.” 

Unfortunately, major cannabis retailers have already faced several embarrassing security breaches since legalization. Perhaps most embarrassingly, the Ontario Cannabis Store suffered a serious data leak and misappropriation in 2022. Threats of this nature are why we’ve guaranteed our software is resilient. 

Beyond the foundations of our software solution, TechPOS supports its customers with the most accessible technical support in the industry. Open seven days a week, from 6:00 AM to 10 PM PST; our team is ready to work through any emergency you could face at the till.

POS Hardware

Unlike other cannabis POS tech, our hardware is custom-built and not sourced via a third party. The cash drawer, scanner, and printer are all sold and serviced by our team, which means if anything needs solving, there is no lengthy wait time while we contact the third party. 

But, to date, we are proud to report there have been no returns on any of our POS components. No printers have fritzed out, no scanners stopped scanning, and no monitors have died. We have a less than 1 percent failure rate on any of our equipment. It’s engineered from the start for durability and resiliency.

We’ve also designed our hardware to work within the unique constraints of the cannabis sector. That means the scanners function with cannabis lot numbers, and the heavy-duty cash drawer is exceptionally secure without an additional upgrade.

Have you have ever fought the printer while trying to process a long line at the counter? You can forget those frustrations with the TechPOS printer. It’s the fastest and most advanced printer on the market, with an automatic cutter to reduce the time spent on every order. It makes the budtender’s job easier, which means they can focus more of their attention on creating meaningful interactions with each customer. 

A Single Supplier for All Your POS Needs

No more tangled webs of equipment suppliers, third parties, busy signals, and incomprehensible support documents. We’ve eliminated all that by ensuring all your POS needs can come from the same reliable source: TechPOS.

If you do encounter any issues with any of the hardware or software components within the TechPOS all-in-one ecosystem, there is one point of contact — our technical support line: 1.833.722.3663 | support@techpos.ca

For anyone who has tried to navigate emergencies with other POS brands, you’ll already appreciate the simplicity of a single supplier. While other companies may be able to manage a software issue, if your printer fails or the scanner breaks down, they’ll have to work with their secondary supplier to get any fixes.

All our hardware comes from in-house. Although we’ve never had a return, if it were to happen, we could ensure you are up and running as quickly as possible. We manage our inventory of spare parts — no delays working with outside companies. Our supply chain is designed to mitigate the risk of downtime for you.

A Head Above the Rest, TechPOS

Although we pride ourselves in the innovative integrations, inventory management, and administrative support we’ve packed into the TechPOS system, we know many of our customers also appreciate the durability of our hardware. 

Our All-in-One POS solution simplifies the business operations for cannabis retail stores. Plus our ultra-resilient POS hardware provides just as much value to our clients. Its hardware you can trust.
