Ankeny, IA (September 28, 2021) – As part of NASGW’s continued effort to expand integrations with shooting sports POS providers to supply aggregated data to the robust SCOPE™ suite of data tools, NASGW and Orchid LLC are excited to announce a integration with Orchid’s new point of sale system, Orchid POS™. Orchid clients will contribute to aggregate non-confidential firearm sales data to provide manufacturers, distributors and gun stores with a better understanding of product performance and sales trends.
“The evolution of the firearms industry demands a data-driven supply chain,” said Jon Rydberg, Orchid CEO. “Such data has been a well-publicized focus of NASGW SCOPE™ and NSSF and we are pleased to support their collective initiative. The development of Orchid POS™ and this partnership is proof of our commitment to drive integrated solutions specific to the firearms industry, from manufacturer to consumer.”
To commemorate the partnership, Orchid POS™ and Orchid eBound™ will be free for one year to the first 30 retail FFLs who sign up prior to the NASGW Expo, to be held Oct. 27-29. Gun stores beyond the first 30 who sign up before the NASGW Expo will receive three (3) months of Orchid POS™ and Orchid eBound™ at no cost. Implementation dates will be scheduled on a first come, first serve basis over the next six months.
Designed for individual, multi-store and mobile firearm retailers, Orchid POS™ combines the functionality of an integrated point of sale system, electronic bound book, firearms-friendly merchant processor and custom webstore into one comprehensive, user-friendly platform. Key features include native Orchid eBound™ and Orchid Pay™ integrations, inventory management, gunsmithing, membership billing, sales reporting, CRM email marketing, and optional Orchid eCommerce™ and AmmoReady upgrades for a custom webstore, live distributor feeds and drop shipping. In addition, Orchid eBound™ is backed by attorneys at FFL Law for maximum security and ATF compliance.
“The success of our SCOPE program is thanks to partners like Orchid and their dealers,” said NASGW Director of Data Programs, Easton Kuboushek. “We’re excited to have Orchid clients onboard and look forward to announcing the lucky dealers to receive free Orchid POS™ for a year at our upcoming expo.”
