Master Point

What Master Point does

Master Point AG is a Cologne, Germany-based Point of Sale solutions provider founded in 2005 and acquired by STRATACACHE in June 2024, operating as a division of the STRATACACHE family alongside Idklic (Belgium), Scala (Netherlands), Walkbase (Finland), and Sys-Teams (UK). The company delivers integrated analog, digital, and AI-powered retail experiences for large international brands, international manufacturers, and innovative Mittelstand companies — with a named customer roster spanning BSH (Bosch und Siemens Hausgeräte), GoPro, Logitech, Sky, Casio, Haier, Panasonic, Garmin, Hisense, Sonos, and Sonoro.

The product portfolio is organized around three pillars. Analog PoS solutions cover Shop-in-Shop systems, displays, branded furniture, window branding, and promotional areas produced, logged, and assembled by Master Point. Digital Signage & Display Networks include LED systems, display networks, dynamic content, content automation, and a proprietary Transparent LED Film that is 100% see-through when no content is playing and converts to a vivid digital surface when active. The AI layer is anchored by the KI-Agent am PoS, a multi-modal (QR/voice/text) autonomous agent that provides individualized product recommendations, technical explanations, comparisons, premium upselling, and emotional inspiration 24/7. Wrapping the offering, Master Quality POS-Management delivers end-to-end services — strategy, retailer coordination, procurement, production, logistics, assembly, merchandising, maintenance, technical support, and an online portal for PoS data and documentation — along with PoS analytics and remote monitoring.

The business model combines hardware sales (physical displays, Shop-in-Shop builds, LED films, signage hardware) with professional services (project management, content production, content automation, analytics, remote monitoring) sold via direct B2B sales on a quote basis; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is sales-led targeting enterprise and mid-market buyers, supported by a corporate website with a contact form offering categories for Analog Brand Experiences, Digital Signage, AI Agents at PoS, Technical Innovations, All-in-One Service, and Consulting, plus a Facebook business page for brand presence. Operations are delivered from the Cologne-Marsdorf headquarters (Max-Planck-Str. 22, DE-50858 Köln) and target the DACH and broader European market, now extended through STRATACACHE's pan-European footprint.
