British Columbia Cannabis Retail POS & Inventory Management

To simply compliance with government regulations, Cova features several automated safeguards. A built-in ID scanner checks age and validity. Purchase limits are monitored, and sales that exceed the legal limit are prevented (product equivalencies for edibles and concentrates are auto-calculaed). Operational hours can also be set to prohibit sales outside allowed times. These features greatly reduce the risk of human effort and consequential fines or license suspension.

Cova’s digital sales tools are intuitive and easy for budtenders to learn. It's easy to find product information when needed, create orders quickly, or add customers to a queue when traffic is at its highest. Cova’s fast processing speed (an average transaction time of 1.4s, even on 4/20) means you’re never waiting for your tech to keep up. Our offline mode ensures even unreliable Wi-Fi won’t slow you down. In the back end, detailed reports-on-demand and mobile dashboards allow BC retailers to make fast, confident decisions to improve store efficiency.

Cova has helped cannabis retailers of all levels of experience launch stores of all sizes across BC and the rest of Canada. Our world-class launch team goes way beyond setting your system and training your staff how to use it. We share insights and industry best practices, the winning strategies and common mistakes we’ve learned from working closely with so many retailers and regulators. We offer remote-assisted and on-site launch options, and free ongoing support.

A lot of cannabis POS companies are tech startups with limited experience and resources. They put a lot of effort into marketing but can’t keep up with ongoing development and support. While Cova certainly has the agility and entrepreneurial spirit of a startup—we’re all entrepreneurs at heart— we leverage the experience and enterprise-tested resources of an established retail tech company. We built our platform on proven infrastructure, which allows us to offer the most sophisticated and secure POS in the industry. We have a large team of developers, all working in Canada, to keep pace with every turn the industry takes.

Generic POS systems are little more than a makeshift solution for cannabis stores that will ultimately cost you time and cause more headaches. Systems that can’t generate compliance reports leave you with the burden of manually compiling them every month, a time-consuming process prone to human error. Cova is always focused on compliance first. We work with the LCRB to understand BC regulations and keep our system updated as they change. We provide 1-click monthly reports and built-in automation to simply cannabis industry compliance and prevent infractions. We also provide the best click-and-collect and cannabis delivery solutions integrated into the POS system.
