POS Integrations
Synchronize Pricing Automatically.
We engineer custom middleware that bridges the gap between secure, internal Point of Sale (POS) systems and outward-facing digital signage. For enterprise QSRs (Quick Service Restaurants) and big-box retailers, manual menu updates are a massive operational liability. We automate that pipeline, ensuring prices, nutritional info, and stock levels synchronize instantly across thousands of screens.
Architectural Overview
Security is the primary concern when touching financial systems. We build strictly isolated, asynchronous API middleware layers that sit between the POS (like NCR, Toast, or Square) and the Edge Display Controllers. This air-gapped approach ensures that while the displays receive pricing metadata, the core financial network remains completely insulated from external web traffic or DDOS vectors.
Core Capabilities
-
Instant Price Synchronization A central update at corporate HQ cascades through the middleware, triggering Webhook events that repaint the HTML5 menu boards at specific franchise locations in under 800 milliseconds.
-
Automated "86" / Sold Out Triggers When a local store's inventory management system marks an item as out of stock, the middleware instantly removes that item from the local digital drive-thru board, preventing customer frustration.
-
Dynamic Localization Logic Complex pricing rules engines that apply different pricing tiers, municipal taxes, and promotional offers based on the specific geographic cluster of the digital sign querying the API.
-
Legacy Mainframe Adapters Custom SOAP-to-REST translation layers that allow ancient on-premise inventory mainframes to communicate with modern, cloud-native digital signage platforms without requiring a massive IT overhaul.
Technology Stack
Our middleware APIs are constructed using highly resilient Go (Golang) or Java/Spring Boot microservices, depending on the client's existing enterprise architecture. We utilize RabbitMQ for guaranteed message delivery, ensuring that if a digital sign temporarily loses power, it will receive the pricing update immediately upon reboot.
