Liquor, wine & tobacco POS

The register that checks every ID.

Scan IDs, follow your state's rules and keep the records inspectors ask for, without slowing down the line. Every feature included, nothing to upgrade. $0 software.

Live demo

Ring up a sale. Get carded.

This is the real register running a sample store. Add a bottle of whiskey or a pack of cigarettes and the customer screen asks for an ID.

Everything behind the counter

Strict where the law is. Fast everywhere else.

One mistake at the counter can cost a store its license. XREDIT Pay builds the checks into every sale, so your team doesn't have to remember them.

ID scan, every time

Beer, wine, spirits, tobacco and vapes ask for an ID before checkout. Expired, underage and mismatched IDs are stopped at the counter.

Your state's rules

Sale hours, Sunday and holiday limits, flavor bans, minimum prices, bottle deposits and tobacco taxes for all 50 states, DC and 5 territories.

Seller checks

Clerks under the legal selling age need a manager to approve, and expired seller or server cards are flagged before the shift.

Records that hold up

Every ID check and refusal is saved to XREDIT Cloud in a record that can't be edited or deleted, kept for the years your state requires.

Wine shop ready

Browse by region, grape and vintage, or run a store that only carries one country's wines and spirits.

Case breaks & deals

Sell a case, a 6-pack or a single from the same stock, and run “any 3 for $30” deals that still count every bottle.

Invoice upload

Upload a supplier invoice and check each line before it's added to stock. Reading handwritten invoices is in beta.

100,000+ items

Barcodes ring up in milliseconds, even with a six-figure catalog shared across every register.

Works offline

Lose the internet and keep selling. ID checks, sales and stock changes are saved on the register and sent when you're back.

Customers & rewards

Members earn points on beer, wine and spirits. Tobacco and vapes never earn points, where the law says so.

Tastings & events

Plan tastings with pour limits and guest ID check-in, then send them to Google, Outlook, Eventbrite and Facebook.

English, Spanish & Armenian

Every screen, receipt and rule explanation, in the language each clerk and customer reads best.

Compliance

Every state's rules, built in.

All 50 states, DC and 5 territories. Pick your state and county, and the register knows what it can sell, when, and to whom.

Age & ID

Scans the ID, checks age for alcohol and tobacco separately, and stops expired or mismatched IDs.

Sale hours

Locks alcohol outside your state's and county's hours, including Sundays and holidays.

Tobacco & vape

Flavor bans, minimum prices, no-discount rules and the FDA's under-30 ID rule.

Receipts & taxes

Bottle deposits, excise and retail taxes, and required warnings printed on every receipt.

No add-ons

Everything a $200-a-month POS has. For $0.

The tools other systems sell as upgrades are built in: the drawer, returns, gift cards, ordering, counts, shelf tags and reports.

Drawer and shifts

Starting cash, cash drops, paid in and out, no-sale opens, and a blind close with an end-of-day Z report.

Returns and voids

Look up any sale, return part of it, restock what's sealed, and require a manager over each clerk's limit.

Gift cards

Sell, check and redeem gift cards, split a payment with cash or card, and bring old balances over.

House accounts and price levels

Charge accounts for non-alcohol items, employee and VIP pricing, and payments on account.

Suggested orders

Purchase orders built from your sales, vendor lead times, reorder points and case packs, emailed to the vendor and received into stock.

Special orders and allocations

Take orders for bottles you don't stock, and limit allocated bottles to one per member.

Blind inventory counts

Scan the shelf, see the differences and their cost, and update stock in one step.

Price changes and shelf tags

Bulk markups with .99 rounding, then print dual-price tags with barcodes and wine shelf talkers.

Reports

A–D item ranking, dead stock, stock value, margins by category, staff sales and loss prevention.

Fast checkout

Hold and recall sales, favorites quick keys, price overrides with a reason, and keg deposits.

Switch in a day

Bring everything with you.

Exports from Square, Clover, Lightspeed and Shopify are read as they are, and any other system's CSV can be matched column by column.

  1. 1

    Export from your current POS

    Items, customers and gift card balances, as CSV files. We'll show you where the export button is.

  2. 2

    We bring it all over

    Prices, costs, barcodes, stock, vendors and case packs; customers with their points; gift card balances. Nothing is lost.

  3. 3

    Open the next morning

    Your registers arrive loaded. Shelf tags print in your pricing program, and your team signs in with their own PINs.

Under the hood

Big catalogs. Bad Wi-Fi. No problem.

Your registers keep a full copy of your catalog and sync to XREDIT Cloud, so a dropped connection never stops a sale.

Keeps selling offline

ID checks, sales and stock changes are saved on the register and sent when the internet returns.

Built for big catalogs

Tested with 100,000 items: barcodes ring up in about 10 ms and the inventory screen opens in under a second.

Card data stays in the terminal

Cards are read and encrypted by the payment terminal. The register only sees a token and the last four digits.

Liquor store POS FAQ

Questions store owners ask us

Let's Talk

Yes. XREDIT Pay is included when you process your card payments with XREDIT. There's no monthly software fee, no per-register license and no paid add-ons: ID scanning, compliance records, gift cards, purchase orders, inventory counts, shelf tags and reports are all included. We earn on payment processing.

You pick one of two programs: dual pricing, where every shelf tag, screen and receipt shows a card price and a lower cash price, or cash discount, where you post the card price and cash customers get a percentage off at checkout. XREDIT Pay never adds a surcharge at the register. We print the counter sign and the shelf tags for you.

Most stores switch in a day. Export your items, customers and gift cards from your current system and we bring them over: prices, costs, barcodes, stock, vendors, case packs, customers with their points, and gift card balances. Exports from Square, Clover, Lightspeed and Shopify are read as they are, and any other CSV can be matched column by column.

All 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands. Each one has its own sale hours, age rules, tobacco and vape rules, deposits and taxes. Local rules change, so we review your state and county with you before you open, and you can tighten any rule further.

In XREDIT Cloud, in records that can't be edited or deleted, kept for the number of years your state requires (you can choose longer). We store the result, age band and ID type, not the customer's name, address or ID number.

The register keeps selling and checking IDs. Records, sales and stock changes are saved on the register and sent when the connection returns, oldest first, and nothing counts twice. Offline card payments are off unless you turn them on, with limits you choose.

Yes. XREDIT Pay connects to Shopify so items, prices and stock stay in sync, and online pickup orders get an ID check at handover.

No. Cards are read and encrypted by the payment terminal itself, and the POS only ever sees a token and the last four digits. That keeps your PCI scope small.
