Museum stores require a point of sale system that handles all the aspects that are unique to their industry such as the need to print admission tickets, sell food as well as merchandise, and integrate with on-line / e-commerce websites. CounterPoint Retail POS Software solutions deliver that integration plus much more.

Most museum shops (museum stores) experience bursts in traffic when busses arrive or during seasonal highs. Our museum store pos software responds to these needs. First, CounterPoint POS utilizes an SQL Server database... the same database utilized by many Fortunate 500 companies to run their mission critical applications. This assures you that CounterPoint POS will process your bursts and keep those customer lines moving. Secondly, many museum shops utilize seasonal labor, so it is important to be able to train new sales staff quickly. Most museums find they can have new staff person checking out customers with as little as 15 minutes of training. Using a CounterPoint POS is simple and easy to train new employees on using.
