About COVA:

Cova is a leading software solutions company that designs and builds products to elevate the dispensary experience. Our point-of-sale solution (POS) is purpose-built for the cannabis industry based on years of research and expertise. Rapid growth has been achieved by delivering an exceptional end to end experience for our clients. We’ve extended that level of service to build an extensive partner network that integrates seamlessly with our POS, providing a suite of tools to help bring dispensaries to the next level. Cova has already invested millions of dollars to get ahead of demand as additional states legalize and license new marijuana stores.

We’re a mix of visionaries, strategists and technologists determined to make this industry better than how we found it. We know the future is unwritten, and subject to improvement, so we try to imagine what that future looks like – and devise ways to build it. Let's shape the next generation of cannabis retailers together.
