Planes, trains, and automobiles.  That is how Skurla's POS Solutions has been rolling this busy summer season!  Living and working in Alaska comes with challenges and beautiful opportunities.

Being a local Alaskan point of sale reseller means going to customer sites any way you can get there - planes, trains, automobiles, boats, and ATVs (and we are NOT kidding).  Whether it's driving to Denali, Kenai or Seward; flying a plane to Nunivak Island or Fairbanks; or taking the train to Denali and Talkeetna, Skurla's team goes where needed.  

You are starting a business.  That is so exciting!  But, boy there are so many details!  Licenses, permits, finding a building, remodeling or maybe even new construction.

Then there is all the equipment you need to buy, people to hire, inventory and/or food products to purchase.  Signage, phone systems, marketing, furniture – the list goes on and on.

There are delays and hiccups along the way – and geez is that cash going quickly or what – and you aren't even open yet!

So sometimes, choosing a point of sale system is way at the bottom of a business owner's to-do list. 

Obviously we are biased, but let us give you just a few reasons why you might want to move the decision to purchase a point of sale system just a little higher up on that list: 

We are pleased to announce that Oracle has opened up MICROS 3700 for EMV integration for third parties.  We have vetted and recommend the current solution provided by Elavon Payment Systems, Simplify, that offers an EMV solution for your MICROS System.
