Start with the records you have
This guide is for Quail Point-of-Sale at quailhq.com. Tell us what records you can download; we'll help identify the files needed for your store.
Review vendor settlements, gift certificates and open layaways with us before choosing your switch date. Available exports determine what can transfer.
Bring a few existing tags and details of your card reader. We'll check the register workflow before asking your staff to change it.
Four steps, with help along the way
- Step 1
Tell us about your store
Email us your current software, the records you want to keep, and what worries you about switching. You can start the conversation before signing up.
- Step 2
Prepare your records with us
We'll help you find the right files and review what can transfer. Keep your originals and continue using your current system while you prepare.
- Step 3
Check your numbers and routines
Review dealer details, inventory, open balances and sample statements. Try the register with your staff and check your tags and equipment.
- Step 4
Choose when to switch
Agree a final data refresh and a clear cutoff for sales. Ask us to plan support for your first close and first month-end.

Can you help if I don't know how to export?
Yes. Email colin@getvintique.com with your software name and version. We'll help identify the next step and arrange how to share your files. You don't need to clean a spreadsheet before asking.
Will everything transfer automatically?
What transfers depends on your software and the files available. We'll review the scope with you. Open payouts, prepaid rent, gift cards, store credit, layaways, photos and online connections may need separate work. Keep your original reports for reference.
Do I have to replace every tag or change processors?
We'll check existing dealer numbers, item tags and equipment first. A compatible standalone terminal can continue alongside Vintique with manual tender entry. Integrated readers and connected services need their own setup review.
How long does switching take?
We'll estimate the work after reviewing your records and training needs. Choose a date that fits your store; we don't promise an overnight switch before seeing the data.
What if I find a problem after importing?
Pause and contact us before ringing live sales. Import recovery has limits once records have changed or real activity has started. We'll help check the import and agree the right recovery steps.
