Sapphire is a high-powered site controller that operates in conjunction with the Ruby SuperSystem or Topaz POS workstation.  Sapphire’s technology was designed to expand the investment you made in Ruby through ease of migration and true open systems architecture, while opening opportunities for newer technologies, such as VeriFone’s Topaz touch screen payment solution.  Sapphire offers the highest reliability and control of mission critical POS devices and data.

Gas margins and tough competition are making it increasingly challenging to be successful in the petroleum/ c-store industry. Many of our
