In today’s fast-paced retail and hospitality industries, having the right technology isn’t just an advantage—it’s a necessity. Modern POS software has evolved far beyond traditional cash registers and cash drawers. Today’s systems are smart, flexible, and equipped with intuitive features designed to help your business thrive. But not all businesses are the same, and your POS system shouldn’t be either.
That’s where customization comes in. A customizable POS system like Clover, offered by Cornerstone Credit Services, empowers small businesses in Alaska to streamline operations, solve unique challenges, and prepare for long-term growth. From employee scheduling to real-time inventory management and detailed financial reporting, a tailored POS solution makes all the difference.
Let’s explore how customized POS solutions can revolutionize your operations and help you make better business decisions.

The Value of Customization in POS Systems
Every business operates differently, and that’s why customization options are essential. A boutique clothing store doesn’t have the same needs as a busy coffee shop or a full-service restaurant. A one-size-fits-all POS system might get the job done, but a customizable system ensures you’re working smarter, not harder.
Clover is designed with flexibility at its core. Whether you’re running a food truck in downtown Anchorage or managing a multi-location hospitality operation, Clover adapts to fit your business, not the other way around. With Cornerstone’s local support and deep expertise, your POS system becomes a true partner in success.
Optimize Key Features for Maximum Efficiency
Customizing your Clover POS system means you can choose the tools and features that match your business goals. Here’s how:
1. Employee Management
Keeping track of staff schedules, permissions, and performance can be a logistical headache, especially during peak seasons. Clover simplifies employee management by allowing you to:
- Set access permissions by role
- Manage employees and shifts with precision
- Track hours and clock-ins/outs
- Monitor individual performance and sales
- Integrate payroll systems
This customization helps reduce errors, increase accountability, and foster a more productive team environment.
2. Online Ordering Integration
Today’s customers expect convenience, and online ordering has become a must-have for both retail and food service businesses. Clover makes it easy to integrate online ordering directly into your POS system, so you can:

With real-time access to performance metrics, business owners can adjust quickly, plan ahead, and grow strategically.
