Korona POS
A pure cloud POS from COMBASE with the deepest retail inventory analytics we carry: sales velocity, seasonality and automatic ordering signals.
For retailers whose money hides in inventory: liquor, specialty, multi-location. Not a restaurant system.
Who it's built for
★ best = where we recommend it first. Crossed out = we'll point you to a better system for that business.
What it can do
What Korona POS actually is
Korona is for retailers whose money hides in inventory. It tracks sales velocity per item, understands seasonality, flags slow movers, and tells you what to reorder and when. For a liquor store or a garden center, that intelligence routinely pays for the system several times over.
It's pure cloud: every terminal updates automatically, every location syncs in real time, and you can read the whole operation from anywhere. It also handles the retail formats most systems ignore, including case-break pricing for liquor, ticketing for venues and attractions, and self-checkout.
One honest structural note: Korona charges a flat software fee and is processor-agnostic, which means no processing lock-in. That's ideal for our model, because we bid the processing separately and you keep the difference.
What it does well
Inventory analytics
Sales velocity, seasonality and reorder signals per item, not just stock counts.
Automatic ordering
Purchase-order suggestions based on real sell-through, with vendor management.
Multi-location, real time
Stock, pricing and promotions synced across every store.
Vertical depth
Case-break liquor pricing, age verification, ticketing, memberships and self-checkout modules.
eCommerce sync
In-store and online inventory as one pool.
Processor-agnostic
No processing lock-in, which lets us bid your rates competitively.
If inventory is where your money hides, Korona finds it.
And because it doesn't trap you with a processor, it's one of the systems where our negotiation adds the most: flat software cost, bid processing, no bundle games.
Korona's processor-agnostic design means we attach whichever program wins your analysis: dual pricing for counter-heavy volume or interchange plus for businesses that prefer to absorb fees transparently.
The hardware
Touchscreen registers
Standard counter terminals, configured per lane.
Self-checkout stations
Customer-operated lanes for high-volume retail.
Handheld scanners
Inventory counts and line-busting on the floor.
How businesses run it
The liquor store
Case-break pricing, age verification and velocity reports that tell you which SKUs actually earn their shelf space.
The garden center
Seasonal forecasting that orders spring stock in the right quantities instead of guessing.
The multi-location gift retailer
One catalog, synced promotions, per-store performance in one view.
Best for
- Multi-location retail
- Liquor stores, garden centers, gift and specialty shops
- Bakeries and coffee shops
- Ticketed venues and attractions
The honest part
It's cloud-only, so there's no offline mode, and the analytics depth is wasted on a simple single-register counter. Restaurants are better served by Paradise, HotSauce or Clover.
That candor is the broker difference: we carry seven systems precisely so we never have to force the wrong one on you.
Korona POS, answered
What does Korona cost?
A flat monthly software fee per terminal with no long-term contract, plus processing we bid separately. No revenue share hiding in your rate.
Does it handle liquor stores well?
It's one of the strongest liquor systems on the market: case-break pricing, age verification prompts and velocity reporting per SKU.
What happens if my internet goes out?
Korona is cloud-first, so an outage interrupts sales. If your connection is unreliable, we'll point you to a hybrid system like Exatouch instead. That's the honest trade.
Can it run my online store too?
Yes. Inventory syncs between in-store and eCommerce so you never sell what you don't have.
What makes its inventory deep compared to other systems?
Most POS inventory counts stock. Korona tracks sales velocity per item, seasonality and reorder timing, then suggests purchase orders. It tells you which shelf space earns and which doesn't.
Can Korona sell tickets and admissions?
Yes. Ticketing, gate scanning and memberships are native modules, which is why venues, museums and attractions run it.
