Questions store owners ask us

What does Counter Club actually set up?

The whole counter: the register screen, the card reader, inventory software and the card processing behind them. One setup, one point of contact, built around how your store type runs.

What does a POS system cost for a small store?

It depends on the hardware you pick, the software plan and the processing. Our pricing page breaks down each piece in plain English, with no gotchas hiding in month 13.

Do you handle EBT, lottery and age checks?

Yes. EBT and SNAP acceptance, lottery workflows and ID scanning for age-restricted sales are core to the stores we serve, not bolted-on extras.

Can I keep my current hardware?

Often, yes. Tell us what you run today and we will tell you honestly what carries over and what is worth replacing.

Where does Counter Club work?

Across the US. Setup and support happen by phone, video and shipped, pre-configured hardware, so a store in Memphis gets the same setup as one in Queens.
