Liquor store POS, built in Chicagoland
A liquor store point of sale built in Chicagoland: register, inventory, shifts, loyalty and local tax setup, connected to the SypNSave deals and rewards app.
- Android POS app and owner web portal
- Cash sales, full refunds, held carts, and shifts
- Loyalty cards and the SypNSave app
- Local taxes configured per store
Clixo, in Itasca, IL, built SyPos, a point of sale for liquor stores, and SypNSave, the Chicago app shoppers use to find local liquor-store offers and earn points.
SyPos is our own product. It is an Android POS app for the counter, a web portal for the owner, and an API behind both. SypNSave is the shopper app on iPhone and Android, with local offers, points and rewards, and bar-crawl trails. We build both from Itasca for stores across Chicagoland.

What the register does today
- Product search and cart at the counter.
- Cash sales and full refunds.
- Held carts, so a clerk can park a sale and come back to it.
- Shifts and closeouts for each stretch of work.
- Invoices, receipts and customer records.
- Loyalty cards with a points ledger.
- Stock adjustments when the count on the shelf changes.
- Staff permissions that control who can do what.
- Local tax settings per store.
- A manual ID check step at checkout.
Staff use the Android app at the counter. Owners use the web portal for the same store.
The shopper app
SypNSave is where shoppers find offers from local liquor stores, earn points at participating stores, and follow bar-crawl trails. Stores can sign up at sypnsave.com.
SyPos is the register and SypNSave is the shopper app. Clixo built both.
Not live yet
- Card payments. SyPos takes cash today. Card and split payments turn on once a payment processor is integrated.
- Automatic ID scanning. ID checks are manual for now.
Hardware
SyPos runs on an Android POS terminal at the counter, with the owner portal in any browser.
Who it is for
Liquor stores in Chicagoland that want a register and a shopper app that work together. If you run one store and an off-the-shelf POS does the job, keep it.
