What's the best POS for a smoke or vape shop?

Q: Do these POS systems support age verification?

Yes — SumUp, RetailzPOS, and NRS all handle ID and age checks for restricted products.

Q: Can you process CBD sales?

Often yes — we work with partners that support CBD and similar categories. Talk to a specialist about your exact products.

Q: Can it handle large inventories?

Yes — RetailzPOS is built for deep tobacco and vape catalogs with scanning and case-break tracking.

Smoke, vape, and CBD shops need age verification, large product catalogs, and low hardware costs. SumUp is a great budget-friendly fit, while RetailzPOS and NRS offer deeper inventory and scanning for busy shops. A Cash Discount program keeps thin margins healthy.

Specialty tobacco and vape retail has specific needs: fast age verification, catalogs with thousands of SKUs, and tight margins that don't leave room for high processing fees.

SumUp is a clean, low-cost way to get started. RetailzPOS is purpose-built for tobacco, smoke, CBD, liquor, and convenience, with deep inventory, scanning, and ID checks. NRS is an affordable all-in-one register popular with neighborhood shops.

Because margins are thin, pricing matters as much as hardware. Velocity pairs any of these with a Cash Discount program to offset almost all of your processing fees, and works with the right partners to place accounts in categories other processors avoid.
