REVONU POS and Holy Cross Monastery: a Match Made in Heaven!
Brother Will working in the shop with REVONU POS
While COCARD’s REVONU POS is already well known for powering payments at restaurants, salons, and retail establishments, it also helps Holy Cross Monastery manage their gift shop inventory, payments and book sales.
Read what Holy Cross Monastery’s Brother Scott has to say about REVONU POS and COCARD.
COCARD: First, what is your primary use for REVONU POS?
Brother Scott: Our system is in the gift shop where we sell a mixture of books, religious gifts, candy bars and snacks.
COCARD: What made your monastery choose REVONU POS for your payment processing?
Brother Scott: We have been working with COCARD for a while, primarily because the previous POS system we were using had recommended COCARD as a merchant services provider. Also, when EMV came about we were looking at how to accommodate that. We had the option to stay with a previous system or change to what COCARD was recommending. COCARD’s support had always been quite good so we felt confident in going with their recommendation, which was REVONU POS.
COCARD: How has REVONU POS improved the operation of your business?
Brother Scott: The previous software we used had been minimally updated since the 90’s. So, now that we have been able to use the newer technology, particularly the cloud based software to access the back office from anywhere, our store has been running a lot smoother.
COCARD: So you would say that REVONU POS has made your business run easier and more efficiently?
Brother Scott: Yes! Especially because COCARD’s customer service has been so reliable and has made converting to REVONU POS a smooth process.
COCARD: What is your favorite aspect of REVONU POS?
Brother Scott: Again, the newer technology and back office cloud integration is great! Also the staff in the store really like the ease of the touch- screen functions on the terminal.
If you think that your business could benefit from adopting a REVONU point of sale terminal, like Holy Cross Monastery does, call COCARD today at 1(800)317- 1819!

Streamline Your Restaurant or Retail Operations With POS
Point of Sale technology enables businesses to improve efficiency, productivity and transparency by tracking sales, cash flow, food/ingredients and inventory as well as simplifying bookkeeping.
POS solutions make it easier, especially during peak hours, for the tracking of high volumes of cash, credit card sales and inventory. A good point of sale system cuts down on theft within a restaurant because each server is accountable for their sales both cash and credit card.
Here are more POS functions that could help you run your business:
- Point of sale systems streamline operations and keep communication lines clear between wait staff and the kitchen. An order is keyed into the POS and printed in the kitchen.
- POS systems store more information than the traditional cash register making the information accessible to the business owner at any given time.
- Business owners can keep track of everything from food/ingredient usage to tracking the most popular menu items.
- Checking out customers is easier for retail business owners because of barcode scanning.
- Business owners can access inventory in real time, retrieving exact figures on products or items sold; tracking the movement of ingredients or items effortlessly.
- Because staff must log into the POS system to begin their shift the POS system also acts as a time clock and becomes the source of reference when preparing payroll.
- Saving time and money in bookkeeping, most POS systems have the capacity to organize and create profit and loss statements as well as sales tax statements.
POS systems consolidate the whole of your restaurant or retail business with different features to help keep your business streamlined, efficient and transparent. Whether you own a restaurant or a retail store we have a point of sale solution for your business. Android, Windows, iPad, wireless, mobile and pay at the table, solutions, let’s talk about how a point of sale can help you manage your business.

Today’s Top Point of Sale News – Keeping Your Restaurant Busy!
According to an article by @emmiemartin, 90% of Americans don’t cook – and it’s costing them thousands each year:
Here are some tips for capturing a share of that dining out cash in your restaurant:
Improve your digital presence
Both on social media and your website. Are you using Instagram? Take pictures of your food and post it on Instagram routinely, use hashtags to describe and elaborate on your food, connect your Instagram account to the restaurants Facebook page and Twitter, one post on Instagram and you’ve also posted on Facebook and Twitter. Do this routinely, even think about taking photos of your food on a day off, lots of items and have them in your photos to post on off days, be consistent.
Customer loyalty
Everyone likes FREE food!, so let Revonu help you create a loyalty program and keeps your customers coming back for the good food and say thanks with FREE food!
Re-think your menu items
Let’s look at your menu, do you have items that are not selling? Maybe Mom’s stuffed cabbage is just not selling? Make it at home and let’s get it off the menu, Mom will understand. Keep the items that sell the best and make them GREAT! Add new items one at a time and test them first as specials.
Offer Online Ordering
One of the fastest ways to increase revenue is to offer customers another way to order from your restaurant. Let customers place their order online, select all of the items and have that order print right to your kitchen printer – no need to have someone on the phone making mistakes! REVONU POS users receive online ordering as part of their suite of POS features.
Manage staff more effectively
With Revonu your staff can login and log out on the system, helping you manage their time. Need a night off? Login to your Revonu back-office from home and see who is working the night shift and how sales are going from your couch!
Let’s work together to keep your restaurant busy and cash in on those folks who just don’t like to cook at home! We can help!
