Merkato is pleased to announce the beginning of its strategic partnership with SIS Technology – an established provider of software, fiscal, and hardware solutions for managing retail locations and business processes.
The collaboration is an important step in the development of Merkato’s portfolio. It expands the company’s ability to provide not individual products, but comprehensive technology solutions tailored to the way each business operates and to its specific needs.
Through the partnership, Merkato’s customers will be able to receive specialised software, fiscal devices, equipment for retail locations, integrated card payment acceptance solutions, and professional implementation support in one place.
A comprehensive ecosystem of connected solutions
As a myPOS representative, Merkato already provides card payment acceptance solutions suitable for different types of retail locations and business models. The partnership with SIS Technology enhances this portfolio with specialised software, fiscal devices, hardware workstations, and systems for managing retail and business processes.
The combination of myPOS and SIS Technology solutions creates a comprehensive technology ecosystem in which the individual components complement one another. Sales, payments, fiscalisation, reporting, and management can be connected in one consistent workflow.
In this way, customers receive not a set of separate devices and services, but a complete system built around their actual needs. This means easier integration, better compatibility, and a single point of contact for consultation, implementation, training, and technical support.
Instead of coordinating multiple suppliers, companies can rely on one technology partner to build and develop their retail infrastructure.
A comprehensive approach to managing retail processes
Modern retail locations operate through multiple interconnected processes – sales, payments, inventory, fiscalisation, invoicing, deliveries, customer service, and performance reporting.
When these processes are managed through separate systems, difficulties often arise in the exchange of information, the tracking of operations, and employees’ daily work. This can increase the risk of errors, slow down customer service, and make business analysis more difficult.
The partnership between Merkato and SIS Technology is specifically aimed at solving this problem. The main objective is for the different technologies within the retail location to operate as parts of one connected environment.
In this way, the entire process can be covered – from entering the item and processing the sale to accepting the card payment, issuing the fiscal document, and recording the transaction.
What solutions Merkato will offer through its partnership with SIS Technology
Thanks to the new partnership, customers will gain access to several main groups of products and services.
Specialised business management software
The portfolio includes software solutions for managing shops, restaurants, sales, accounting operations, and complex business processes.
These include ERP and POS systems, solutions for the centralised management of multiple locations, and tools for automating daily operations.
The software solutions can support the management of:
- sales and customer orders;
- items, prices, and discounts;
- inventory and deliveries;
- retail locations and checkout points;
- accounting and financial processes;
- business reports and analyses;
- relationships with customers and suppliers;
- production and logistics processes.
Depending on the company’s organisation, the systems can be configured according to the specific processes, the number of locations, and the required level of automation.
Fiscal devices and solutions
Merkato will also offer fiscal devices that are compatible with the software systems and comply with the applicable regulatory requirements.
This area includes fiscal printers, combined workstations, and solutions for the automated issuance of electronic receipts for in-store and online sales.
With proper integration, fiscalisation becomes a natural part of the workflow. Employees do not need to transfer information manually between separate systems, and the risk of omissions and discrepancies is reduced.
Integrated myPOS card payment solutions
myPOS card payment acceptance solutions can be added to the software and fiscal systems.
In this way, the sale, payment, and issuance of the fiscal document can be combined into one consistent process. This makes employees’ work easier, speeds up customer service, and reduces the likelihood of discrepancies between the entered amount, the payment, and the issued document.
The integrated solutions are suitable both for independent retail locations and for companies with multiple locations, different checkout points, or mobile sales teams.
Hardware for workstations and retail locations
The partnership also includes hardware solutions for building fully equipped workstations and retail areas.
Depending on the needs of the location, the configuration may include:
- fiscal workstations;
- self-service checkouts;
- barcode scanners;
- electronic scales;
- fiscal and label printers;
- touchscreen devices;
- payment terminals;
- peripherals for shops, restaurants, and warehouses.
This allows the equipment to be selected according to the type of business, the number of locations, the workload, the available space, and the way customers are served.
Implementation, training, and technical support
A technology system is effective only when it is properly configured and adapted to the company’s actual processes.
For this reason, the partnership between Merkato and SIS Technology includes not only product delivery, but also professional services for:
- analysing needs and current processes;
- selecting a suitable software and hardware configuration;
- installation and setup;
- integration between the software, fiscal devices, and card payments;
- employee training;
- ongoing technical support;
- expanding the system as the business develops.
This approach allows customers to work with a single partner when building, implementing, and subsequently developing their technology environment.
What types of businesses are the solutions suitable for?
The joint solutions from Merkato, SIS Technology, and myPOS are suitable for companies of different sizes, structures, and operating models.
The main applications include:
- shops and retail chains;
- restaurants, bars, and cafés;
- hotels and tourist facilities;
- service businesses;
- online stores;
- warehouses and logistics centres;
- companies with mobile sales teams;
- businesses with multiple retail locations;
- manufacturing companies;
- organisations seeking to automate their processes.
The systems can be configured both for a small independent location and for a more complex structure with multiple workstations, warehouses, sales channels, and different user roles.
More than a payment acceptance solution
“As a myPOS representative, Merkato already provides reliable solutions for accepting card payments. The partnership with SIS Technology allows us to build on this expertise and offer customers a complete technology environment that combines software, fiscalisation, hardware, process management, and payments. In this way, businesses receive one integrated solution, one technology partner, and long-term support,” explains Mr Kuntorov, Chief Executive Officer of Merkato.
With the new partnership, Merkato reinforces its strategy of being a reliable technology partner that offers not simply individual products, but comprehensive solutions, expert consultation, and long-term support.
The company will continue to develop its portfolio of integrated systems that combine business management, fiscalisation, hardware, and card payments in one functional environment.
