Frequently Asked

A few things retailers ask before ordering.

Does this require POS integration?

No. V-Prime runs standalone for inventory counting. After a count, you reconcile results against your existing POS, whether Shopify, Square, Lightspeed, or any other system you run. POS integration is on the roadmap but not required for a working RFID inventory program.

How is V-Prime licensed?

One V-Prime license covers one end customer account, with up to 50 stores under it. The Starter Kit includes year 1. Annual renewal is $2,995/year regardless of how many stores you operate (within the 50 store cap). Retailers above 50 stores work with our enterprise team.

Can I add more hardware later?

Yes. Additional handhelds, additional printers, and label reorders ship from RSG and connect to your existing V-Prime account. There's no per device licensing. All your hardware reports into one account.

What if I have more than one store?

The Starter Kit is sized for a single store. Retailers running 2 to 50 stores work directly with RSG on a multi store quote, with hardware scaled to the rollout and one V-Prime account covering the chain. Request a multi store consultation. Above 50 stores, our enterprise team scopes a custom program.
