Does backup internet change our compliance requirements?

No. It keeps your systems reporting the way they normally do. The rules themselves stay the same.

We have several stores. Can they all use the same setup?

Yes. The same router and plan at each store keeps support simple, and you can pick the carrier per location.

Backup internet for cannabis dispensaries

From the FAILOVER5 team at Twisted VoIP, Chandler, Arizona · Updated October 2026

Few retailers lean on the internet like a dispensary. ID checks, purchase limits, the register and the state's tracking system all need a connection. When it drops, most stores stop selling until it comes back.

Every sale touches the cloud

POS systems such as Dutchie, Flowhub, Treez and Cova
Purchase limit checks against state rules
Sales reporting to Metrc or BioTrack
Online and kiosk orders waiting at the pickup counter
Cashless and PIN debit payment terminals

Stay ahead of reporting

Traceability systems expect sales to be reported on time. A backup line keeps your POS talking to the state system as it normally would, so you aren't left reconciling a pile of offline sales after the fact.

Cameras stay on the main line

Dispensaries run a lot of cameras. Recording is local, but cloud uploads and off-site viewing can use a huge amount of data. Keep those on your main connection unless your state rules or your security company need them on the backup too.

Suggested plan: 50 GB plan, $175/month

Registers, ordering and reporting are light, but busy stores run many registers and kiosks. 50 GB gives a multi-register store comfortable headroom; small stores do well on 20 GB.
