OtterText is excited to introduce Smart Checkout with OtterOrder—a modern, lightweight checkout and ordering platform built specifically for cigar retailers, bars, and lounges—making its debut at PCA26.
A Checkout Experience Designed for Cigar Retailers
Smart Checkout with OtterOrder is not your typical POS. It’s built for how cigar businesses actually operate, supporting open tabs, lounge service, curbside pickup, and fast counter transactions. The platform runs in the cloud and works on any computer or tablet, connecting to secure card readers for quick, hassle-free payment processing—no complex hardware or long training times required.
Key Features:
- Built-in rewards and loyalty programs
- Automations and age verification
- Custom ordering website for curbside pickup and pre-orders
- QR code and NFC ordering, letting guests order from anywhere in the lounge using their phone
- Seamless integration with OtterText for SHAFT-compliant text communication, customer engagement, follow-ups, and promotions
Smart Checkout is designed to complement existing systems or serve as a standalone solution for select use cases. It helps cigar retailers modernize operations, increase average ticket size, and deliver a smoother customer experience—without needing to replace what already works.
- Available at PCA26
- Estimated Ship Date: March 1, 2026
Exclusive Show Deal for PCA26 Attendees
