A Nice Touch for C-Stores
Pinnacle Palm POS
The Pinnacle Corp.
With so many convenience and petroleum stores located in proximity to each other, competition is fierce. Customers want to make purchases quickly and be on their way, so every second counts when it comes to transactions. Pinnacle Corp.'s point-of-sale system, the Pinnacle Palm POS, was designed specifically for meeting the industry's speedy transaction requirements.
The Palm POS is a flexible in-store touch-screen technology that can interface with other industry-standard hardware and POS peripherals such as coin changers, fuel pumps, gas island card readers, scanners, card swipe devices and printers.
The system operates using true graphics and an intuitive interface, so employees learning to use the system catch on quickly. Its 32-bit software runs on Windows '95, '98, 2000 and NT, the fastest in the industry, and credit authorizations are processed using telecommunication companies' 950 numbers, VSAT satellite and WAN-TCP/IP.
Here's a nice feature for clerks and store owners: The system flags certain types of merchandise that require age identification, such as tobacco and alcohol products.
Pinnacle's system received honors in the 2001 Microsoft Retail Application Developer judging for Best Retail In-Store Applications.
