4. Can your museum store POS system handle admission tickets?

Celerant’s museum store and gift shop POS system does not handle ticketing and admission tickets. If your business needs to manage admissions, that would need to be completed in a separate ticketing system. We can discuss a potential integration for your ticketing system, but we do not currently have that available as part of our retail POS system for gift shops.
