Industry · Liquor store

Liquor retail without checkout drag.

Start with liquor-ready departments, unlock age verification for restricted SKUs, and keep the register moving with AI-assisted catalog work in the back office.

Age checks on restricted sales only

Confirm birth date or scan ID once per ticket — sticky verify keeps multi-bottle baskets moving. Manager override and refusal stay audited. Minimum age follows alcohol, tobacco, or lottery on the SKU.

High-SKU categories you can still control

Beer, wine, spirits, RTD, mixers, and snacks are preloaded as a starting point, then your team can redesign categories and register tiles in Admin.

Deposits, cases, and price books

State bottle deposit and CRV tables charge per container on multipacks. Receive sealed cases as eaches with case cost split to unit cost — inventory stays accurate for liquor purchasing.

Allocated drops that stay locked

Mark limited spirits as allocated — the register blocks the ring until the customer is waitlisted or a manager releases the bottle. No accidental sell-through on allocated bourbon.

Invoice import that stays reviewable

Distributor files are organized into proposed SKUs and departments before commit, so catalog setup gets faster without turning into blind automation.

Start with a template, then redesign categories and capabilities in Admin.

Counterly preloads a sensible starting point for liquor store, but the goal is not to lock you into one industry mode. Build your own register layout, tune the catalog, and add regulated capabilities only when your store actually sells them.
