FAQ

Questions from the press corner

Where can I find CBS NorthStar press releases and restaurant POS news?

Right here. Every partner announcement, product update and press release CBS NorthStar publishes lands on this page, next to our articles for restaurant operators. Use the News filter to see announcements only, pick a year to go back as far as 2018, or search for a partner or product by name.

Who should journalists contact at CBS NorthStar?

Reach Allie Haskell, VP of Marketing, at allie.haskell@cbsnorthstar.com or (800) 551-7674. She handles interview requests, quotes, logos and product images.

What do CBS NorthStar articles cover?

The practical side of running restaurants: drive-thru speed, third-party delivery costs, holiday rush prep, back-office time, analytics and the real cost of stitching tools together. They're written for operators and executives at table service, quick service and fast casual brands, plus food retail. No fluff, and no product brochure dressed up as advice.

How can I meet the CBS NorthStar team at an industry event?

Our Events page lists the shows we're attending next, with a short form to book time with the team on the floor. It also has photo galleries from past events, like FS/TEC 2026 in Dallas-Fort Worth. Not going to a show this season? Book a demo instead.

How do I announce an integration with NorthStar?

Start on our Become a Partner page. Once an integration with NorthStar Order Entry is live and tested, we work with partners on a joint announcement, a dedicated integration page on cbsnorthstar.com and a press release, like the recent launches with Boxie smart lockers and Decision Logic business intelligence.

How is CBS NorthStar different from other restaurant POS companies?

CBS NorthStar has been family owned and independent since Art Julian founded it in 1994. One company builds, installs and services the system, with a help desk staffed by our own people around the clock and field service in all 50 states. Operators keep their payment processor, and NorthStar keeps taking orders and cards if the internet drops.
