At Point Of Sale Guy, we understand the challenges of operating in highly regulated industries such as CBD, hemp, cannabis, and smoke shops. These businesses face strict banking rules, evolving government regulations, and complex compliance requirements, making payment processing a significant hurdle.

We understand the frustration that comes with these sudden changes, and that’s why Point Of Sale Guy is still here for you.
