Age verification included
Stellard checks an ID document and only releases alcohol above the legal minimum age.
Buy and return deposits

Your beer enthusiasts can shop long after the competition has closed.
Complements your current till
Thanks to an open API, scango.ch also runs as an extra self-checkout alongside your current point of sale.
How a beverage store runs with scango.ch
Whether you stock 250 curated beer specialities or a broad everyday range, your customers scan and pay themselves – by card, TWINT or cash at the till. Scheduled advisory hours with trained staff combine easily with unattended opening times the rest of the week. The cloud dashboard shows you what's selling at any time, and video surveillance adds extra security.
