ClearTEQ POS

ClearTEQ POS is a web-based point of sale and merchant services solution designed for independent retailers that want to combine sales, inventory management and payment processing in one system. Small retailers often juggle a standalone cash register, a separate card terminal supplied by a payment processor and spreadsheets for tracking stock, which creates reconciliation work, obscures true payment costs and limits insight into sales performance. ClearTEQ addresses this by bundling point of sale software with integrated card processing. Its core approach is to provide an all-in-one package, including software, hardware and payment services, that is straightforward to set up and supported by a single provider, so that retailers can focus on serving customers rather than coordinating multiple vendors and troubleshooting integration issues between them.

Key features include a touchscreen sales interface, barcode scanning, inventory tracking with low-stock alerts, purchase orders, product variants, customer records and loyalty programmes, discounts and promotions, gift cards, employee management with permissions and time clock functions, and multi-store support. Integrated payment processing accepts credit and debit cards, EMV chip and contactless payments, and reporting dashboards show sales by product, category, employee and time period. Because the system is web-based, owners can review performance and manage inventory remotely, and data is backed up automatically. Integrations with accounting software and ecommerce platforms help synchronise financial and product data. ClearTEQ POS is aimed at small and mid-sized retailers such as gift shops, boutiques, hardware stores, convenience stores, specialty food outlets and other independent merchants in the United States seeking an integrated sales and payments solution. Bundling hardware, software and payments under one provider also simplifies support, as merchants have a single point of contact when problems arise at the counter. Pricing starts from around USD 69 per month; there is no free trial and no free version.
