14th December, 2025 — Octopos, an all-in-one POS platform purpose-built for grocery, liquor, and retail, is helping processors and ISOs scale complex retail portfolios without turning POS deployments into an operational bottleneck.

With 7+ years in market and support across approximately 150 retail locations in the United States, Octopos has added value to grocery & retail stores where inventory complexity and workflow edge cases quickly become support tickets.

“Most POS problems for processors show up after the deal closes, during rollout and day-to-day support,” said Gunjan Patel, Founder and CEO of Octopos. “Octopos is payment agnostic by design, and we take responsibility for onboarding, training, and merchant support cause we are the experts in the domain and also because it lets partners focus on scaling grocery and retail merchants”.

Payment-Agnostic by Design: Octopos is fully payment agnostic, so processor and ISO partners can deploy the POS without forcing a merchant to switch processors or disrupt established residual structures. In practice, that keeps conversations focused on winning the account and rolling out the POS, rather than renegotiating payments.

Works on Android Hardware Already in the Field: Octopos runs on Android-based POS hardware commonly used across retail environments, including PAX and CRE. Reusing existing hardware reduces deployment friction, avoids forced refresh cycles, and helps partners standardize rollouts across diverse merchant fleets.

Built for Grocery, Liquor & Retail Store Workflows That Drive Retention: Advanced unit-of-measure support helps merchants handle the real inventory complexity of grocery and liquor: weighted items, varying pack sizes, vendor units, without workarounds that create confusion and support load. Involytics, Octopos’ AI invoice and margin analysis capability, helps merchants better understand vendor costs and profitability, while built-in loyalty and marketing tools support stronger repeat purchasing without layering on additional third-party systems.

Across Octopos’ merchant base, these capabilities are commonly associated with reduced manual work, better day-to-day inventory visibility, and fewer operational surprises—conditions that tend to improve merchant stickiness and account life for processor portfolios over time.
