Catapult Retail Point of Sale
Traditional POS. Light years ahead of your competition.
RegisterGuard™
Catapult Retail Point of Sale is the one software solution you can trust to keep your store checking out customers quickly and efficiently hour after hour, day after day. After many years of design and development, Catapult includes POS data redundancy. RegisterGuard™ was designed with reliability in mind. If the local network stops working, each Catapult POS terminal continues to operate independently without relying on the network to process transactions. Unlike competing systems, RegisterGuard™ ensures that nearly all of your POS functionality continues to operate as normal, even when the store network – or store database server – has stopped functioning.
Transaction Auto-Resume
If a transaction is interrupted due to power loss or other unforeseen circumstance, when the terminal reboots, the transaction automatically resumes where it left off.
Automatic Software Updates and Delivery – Stream™
Facilitates automatic updates on a user-defined schedule.
Streamlined POS Screens
Point of Sale touch screen technology is a standard feature on Catapult. This breakthrough in flexibility allows you to design the POS screen around your specific requirements. While most systems offer a few choices at the point of sale, Catapult Retail Point of Sale screens can be set up in an endless variety of configurations, including location, color, size, and font controls. Catapult also allows users to have an unlimited number of configurable menus and prompts to organize and streamline your cashier activity.
It’s clear to see that the colourful high resolution graphical point of sale screens are easy to use from the first touch. Managers find that training cashiers is easier than previous systems because of the streamlined order of screens and convenient messages prompting customers as they go along through transactions.
Customizable Receipts
Customers are offered the option of paper receipts, eReceipts, or virtual receipts accessible from the customer account history. Receipts are customizable to accommodate the retailer’s branding and messaging, as well as dozens of different layout modification options in the event that the merchant requires it.
- Paper Receipts – Merchants coming from other systems have preferences for their Point of Sale receipts. Catapult is able to accommodate those preferences with a receipt editor that allows the merchant to modify them as they see fit.
- eReceipts – When customers subscribe to a merchant’s customer tracking system in Catapult, they can be offered the feature of eReceipts to their personal email, which many customers prefer because they’re easier to find later, save the merchant paper cost, and it’s better for the environment, so it’s a win, win, win for everyone. While the merchant asks for the email for eReceipts, they can also inquire as to email marketing. If a customer opts-in great, if they opt-out, no problem, simply check the box next to eReceipts.
- Gift Receipts – For gift shops, toy shops, apparel stores, and other stores where gift purchases are common, a gift receipt is a must have. Catapult can easily accommodate this request with an easy to use feature at the Catapult point of sale, and customized to the merchant’s tastes and operational preferences.
- Virtual Receipts – Every transaction in Catapult is tracked in it’s electronic journal, allowing for easy look up of any transaction by a variety of criteria. If customers are members of the customer tracking system in the store, receipts can be virtually tracked any time simply by looking up a customer’s purchase history at the Catapult Retail Point of Sale.

When properly implemented, the use of precise biometrics identification like fingerprint, can provide a much higher level of security at the point of sale compared to user codes.

Generated Functions
Catapult was the first POS to allow you to generate an unlimited number of tenders, discounts, paid ins and outs, item and customer lookups, tax tables, and many other features.
Fresh Food / Bulk Item Tracking with ScaleAware
This patent-pending feature expedites the processing of weighted items at the point of sale by eliminating keystrokes. When this option is turned on, if the POS detects a settled weight on the scale, it automatically displays the produce/bulk menu (or other weighed item menu) for the cashier, rather than forcing them manually press buttons each time a weighted item must be rung in.
