That better way has arrived.

In fact, our goal is to streamline your services so you never waste a second again. With that in mind, let’s dive into 5 ways Cheers POS is the solution to your wine and spirit management.
1. Our liquor store POS is all-in-one
Remember how we said Cheers POS streamlines all your services into one easy-to-use point-of-sale? Well, let’s talk some more about that.
With Cheers POS on your side, there’s no need to go anywhere else for any of your needs. When you invest in Cheers POS for your business, you’re investing in these services at your fingertips:

Invoices and reporting
Without a proper, all-in-one liquor store POS in place, it can often feel like you’re playing a guessing game. Our comprehensive invoicing and reporting system tracks sales reports, inventory reports, employee time logs, register logs, and more.
All of this data is easily accessible to you at any point in time so that you can make informed decisions about hiring, ordering, and anything else you might need.
Inventory management
Ah, yes. Purchasing, ordering, and tracking inventory—a liquor store owner’s most beloved part of the job (said no liquor store owner ever). Cheers POS turns inventory management from a frustrating guessing game to a powerful, easy-to-use resource. Some of the tools you’ll have available to you when you go with Cheers POS include:
- Advanced reporting for daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly sales reports
- A live view of your markups and margins
- Easily see your total inventory value
- Detailed inventory loss reporting and documenting

Purchase order automations
Remember all that talk about Cheers POS saving you time and money? Our purchase order automation system has a lot to do with that. Created with wine and spirit owners specifically in mind, this function of Cheers POS system moves your purchase orders directly into your invoicing system to reconcile or adjust! You’re welcome 😇
Wholesale management
You want the info on the products you’re ordering wholesale? You got it. Cheers POS shows you a robust collection of data regarding potential wholesale purchases. This way, before making an order, you can take into account how well it sells, its promotion history at your store, and more.
Distributor integrations
We have relationships with some of the top wine and liquor distributors around. When you invest in Cheers POS, you get to enjoy the advantages of those relationships!
Distributor integration with Cheers POS means you have easy access to a list of products from top distributors set at the best prices. When you’re ready to buy, it’s just a click away. Our integration means there’s no middleman. Your order goes straight to the distributor.
2. You choose what you want
We offer two approaches when transferring over to our liquor store POS so you can customize your experience with Cheers POS.
The first of the two is the Pro Package. With this approach, we’ll be with you every step of the way. You can let go of your worries and let us handle it from start to finish. The scope of this package means we’ll travel to you, install and set up the hardware, and train your employees for up to 2.5 days on how to use it. We also offer readily available customer service for if you’re ever feeling a little stuck.
The second option for integration is DIY. You choose how much or how little you want us to be involved. With this approach, you can decide which services you’d like us to perform, such as training or integration, and which ones you’d rather do yourself. We’re not here to get in your way, but we’ll always be on stand-by in case you have any questions or want to add a service.
Both of these options always include a 2-year warranty, no questions asked.
3. We make integration easy
You’re in charge here. You choose how much, if any, of your old inventory you’d like to bring over. If you want to bring over your old inventory, it’s super easy to integrate your data onto the new system.
Looking for a fresh start, a clean slate? We can do that, too. Cheers POS has an abundant built-in inventory library. All you have to do is scan the physical items, and the system will integrate that into your new inventory.
With this feature, you can “clear the shelves,” so to speak, of all the dusty, unused inventory items from years past. Each time you have a new inventory item, simply scan it into the system, and it will be waiting there for your checkout person to select when your customers come running for it.
4. This is a modern liquor store POS
Our liquor store POS system is not for the folks who want their business to stay still. We grow and change with the times. Innovation is rapid in the liquor store industry, and if you don’t keep up, you’re out. That’s why we offer modern features to accommodate the changing industry.
For example, our system include non-alcoholic beverages and items, and easily allows cashiers to break packages.
Many of the features of our system have come about because of feedback from customers like you! When you choose Cheers POS, you’re investing in a constantly updating, innovative process that always keeps you in mind.
Additionally, being a modern liquor store point of sale means we don’t penalize you for having a thriving business. We won’t charge you for seats or the number of devices logged into the system, there’s no limit on employees, and we don’t charge for licensing either. Now that’s something to toast to 🍻
5. We are liquor store people
The history of Cheers POS is rooted in your neighborhood liquor store. When founder Edgar Rada was a teenager, he spent afternoons and weekends helping his dad with inventory, sales, and invoicing at his liquor store in St. Mary’s, Kansas.
Edgar learned firsthand how chaotic liquor store management can be. He wanted a solution, a device that would let you do payroll, order wholesale, and manage your sales all in one place. Thus, Cheers POS was born, as most good ideas are, surrounded by lots of booze.
The point is: we know liquor stores because we are liquor store people. We decided to address some of the biggest problems in the liquor store POS industry because we know how frustrating it is to work around them. We founded Cheers POS on a drive to simplify and expedite your liquor store management. That’s what makes it the best POS system for small liquor store owners and big corporations, too.
We’ve talked with the big players. We’ve sat down with them over dinner (and drinks 😉) to discuss the issues. We may not have been around the longest, but we know what we’re talking about, and we’re not all talk, either. It’s time invest in a liquor store POS that will make it simple, easy, and efficient to run your business.
