For Owners, CFOs, and COOs
Growing retail businesses eventually hit a wall with basic POS systems. What once worked for a single location or limited SKUs begins to break under the weight of complex inventory, compliance requirements, multi-store operations, and the need for deeper reporting.
That’s where NCR Counterpoint, delivered and supported by Nationwide Payment Systems, becomes a strategic upgrade—not just a software change. It is purpose-built for inventory-heavy, regulated, and growing retail businesses that need:
Precise inventory control
Flexible pricing models
Multi-location visibility
Integrated payments and accounting
Long-term scalability without re-platforming
Many retailers start with cloud-only POS platforms because they’re fast to deploy. But Growth introduces complexity:
At this stage, retailers don’t need more apps—they need a system.
NCR Counterpoint was built for this phase of business growth.
Inventory is not just a list of products—it’s cash flow, compliance, and operational efficiency.
With NCR Counterpoint, retailers gain:
For liquor stores with 20,000–50,000 SKUs, nurseries managing seasonal inventory, or sporting goods stores tracking serialized items, this level of control is non-negotiable.
Not all POS systems can legally or operationally support regulated sales.
Counterpoint enables:
This makes it a strong choice for sporting goods retailers and firearm dealers that cannot afford compliance gaps.
Retail pricing is rarely “one price fits all.”
NCR Counterpoint supports:
This is especially powerful for B2B-adjacent retailers, wholesale operations, and loyalty-driven businesses.

Merchants can accept:
This alignment of POS + gateway + merchant account + support simplifies operations and reduces downtime.
Most POS reports answer what happened. Counterpoint helps explain why.
Built-in and customizable reports cover:
With over 100+ built-in reports and custom reporting capabilities, owners and Finance teams gain actionable insight—not just data.
Modern retail is not online or in-store—it’s either.
Counterpoint integrates with:
This enables:
Pop-up shops, mobile POS, and off-site events are also supported—without breaking inventory integrity.
When you update pricing in counterpoint or change the picture our system automatically updates your shopping cart!
Customer retention is margin protection.

This is particularly effective for specialty retail and repeat-purchase environments.
Technology only works if your team can use it.

Nationwide Payment Systems doesn’t just resell software—we design payment and POS ecosystems around how businesses operate today and where they’re growing next.
By pairing NCR Counterpoint with integrated payments, compliance support, and industry-specific expertise, merchants gain a long-term solution instead of another short-term tool.
