Solution:

What are the differences between CPOnline and NCR Retail Online (NRO)?

You can view the differences between CPO and NRO here ! View a short video about the differences here .

Are there any webinars available where I can learn more about NRO?

You can register for our weekly live webinar by vising the NCR Counterpoint User Portal then going to Training / Live Webinars.

Will my CPOnline site design transfer over to NRO?

CPOnline design and/or customization work does not transfer over to NCR Retail Online. Professional Services will have to provide a quote to re-create the desired result in NCR Retail Online. You can get a quote for that work by contacting our Design Services team .

What design options are available for NRO?

NCR Retail Online includes a flexible design theme called Celebrity which provides many options for customizing the look-and-feel of your online store. We also offer several celebrity theme skins to further change the look and feel of your site. You can check them out using the links below:

Celebrity Theme
Mainstream Skin
Hometown Skin
Evening Skin

We also provide Custom designs for NRO sites. You can check out our Design Gallery to see some of the custom designs that we have created.

Can NRO sites be made Mobile Responsive?

Yes! The default Celebrity theme is fully mobile responsive. You can find information on working with the celebrity theme to make it responsive here .

Note : Only the default celebrity skin is currently mobile responsive, however you can contact our professional services team for a quote on making other designs or skins mobile responsive.

Will my CPOnline store remain open while I am setting up my NRO site?

Yes! You can keep your CPOnline site open while creating new content in NCR Retail Online.

Note : One thing to note though is that you will be juggling your Ecommerce category structure between both sites. You can find information here on the best way to handle this while setting up the new site.

Will I need to make any changes to NCR Counterpoint in order to use NRO?

Nothing about the NCR Counterpoint set-up has changed so you aren’t starting from scratch. However, this is still a major product change and there are many options to consider.

How much does this cost and are there any other costs or fees associated?

NCR Retail Online pricing includes 3 factors:

How much space do you require : NRO offers several hosting plans that provide the space and bandwidth that you need. You can view the hosting plans here .
The cost of processing credit cards : NRO processes credit card payments through the NCR Secure Pay processing gateway. This gateway helps you keep transactional information safe by encrypting credit card numbers from your site to your processor of choice. You will also need merchant processing services.

Your web address : When you register for NRO you are provided an under-construction web address of yourchoice.nrostores.com. When you are ready to go live we can transfer your SSL certificate from your CPOnline store and you can transfer your domain over to the new NRO site.
