About Ascend RMS, a POS company for outdoor retailers

Born in a bike shop, we’ve always had a first-hand look at the specific obstacles and challenges outdoor retailers face. What started as helping shops improve in-store experiences with a better point-of-sale system, has since grown into a one-stop retail management platform designed to meet the unique needs of outdoor retailers around the world.

While other point-of-sale companies treat your industry like an afterthought, Ascend offers more than 20 years of outdoor retail experience to help businesses of all sizes simplify day-to-day challenges, boost sales, and provide best-in-class customer service. Our mission is to handle the hard stuff so you can get back to doing what you love — helping customers get outside.
