BLAZE®

We are excited to be heading back to Michigan soon for the Flower Expo on August 7-8th! This year, we will be powering the Flower Expo mobile app to streamline purchasing samples with our Scan to Shop feature. Stop by booth A500 to learn more about using Scan to Shop in your dispensary and see the new BLAZE Retail® POS in action.

Nice coverage from mg Magazine on the new BLAZE Retail® launch! This update was informed by feedback from our retail partners. “Building BLAZE Retail with a fresh new look and feel was something we knew was necessary for the evolution of our software and brand. During development, over 500 usability tests were conducted, providing valuable feedback on the ease of use, naming conventions, and how the UX and UI could be improved. We beta-tested the new system with 15 high-volume dispensaries across 6 different states over 2 months to fully stress-test the scalability and stability of the platform.” -Kai Kirk, CPO at BLAZE If it has been a while since you looked at BLAZE as an option for your dispensary, a LOT has changed. Reach out for demo!

The new BLAZE Retail® has arrived! Cannabis retail operations have changed so we designed the new POS system to meet the evolving needs of dispensaries. "The launch of our new POS system is the culmination of three years of customer feedback and innovation from our product team. The new BLAZE Retail® offers industry-leading reliability and a seamless migration path, requiring minimal to no additional hardware investments. It is Enterprise-ready and designed to solve the needs of our customers today with an award-winning customer success team ready to help meet our retailer's needs of tomorrow." Christopher Violas, CEO at BLAZE Hats off to the entire team for their passion and dedication in building the new POS!

We are excited to announce the new BLAZE Retail® web-based POS system. This transformative upgrade unlocks a new level of flexibility for cannabis dispensaries with a hardware-agnostic POS system and a reimagined user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) designed to increase efficiency and intuitiveness for front-of-house employees. We noticed many retail operators felt trapped by the costs and hassle of transitioning to a new POS system, despite their existing system repeatedly failing them during high-demand holidays like 4/20. The new BLAZE Retail® offers a seamless migration path requiring minimal to no additional hardware investments. Whether it's POS terminals, desktop computers, or mobile tablets, this software update provides the flexibility to adapt to different hardware configurations. It is time to upgrade to a faster, more stable, and more flexible cannabis POS system.

Tomorrow we unveil the new BLAZE Retail® POS! This will be the most impactful update to our software to date, and we are just getting started.

Flashback to some outtakes from our BLAZE Retail® photoshoot at Haven from 2020! It is hard to believe it's been 4 years. The Haven team is always a joy to work with and has been instrumental in beta testing the new BLAZE Retail which drops next week! Excited for everyone to see what we've been working on! #fbf #cannabisretail #cannabistech
