BOSTON, Nov. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- During the World Series, Retail Control Systems (RCS) helped the Red Sox Team Store make one of the busiest days in Red Sox history a success with the aid of NCR CounterPoint POS (point of sale). Lindsey Stinson, the Store Manager at the Red Sox Team Store prepared for the 250% increase in business, and 12,000 transactions across 63 registers by utilizing the NCR CounterPoint POS licenses (point of sale software, NCR Merchant payment services, reporting, and business analytics), extra terminals, and assistance from Retail Control Systems.

The YawkeyWayStore (www.yawkeywaystore.com) began limited trials with RCS and NCR CounterPoint as their preferred point of sale solution in 2010. Since, CounterPoint POS has effortlessly handled the point of sale activities through game day openers, regular season games, series playoffs, the 100 year celebration, and, most importantly, the 2013 World Series.

"For Game 6 of the World Series, the Red Sox Team Store was bursting with energy. From the start of the game to the celebration afterward, our systems ran perfectly. The Red Sox brought their 'A' game to the World Series, and so did the Team Store," states Tim McDermott, RCS Technical Support.
