Answers as straight as we can make them.
- What is CigarLink?
- CigarLink is the pricing layer for the cigar industry. New manufacturer and broker pricing lands in the system, and retailers' POS catalogs stay current automatically.
- How do price sheets get into CigarLink?
- Manufacturers and brokers send them any way they already do — emailed sheets, uploaded PDFs, spreadsheets, or photos from a phone. CigarLink extracts the rows and turns them into structured pricing.
- Does CigarLink integrate with my POS?
- CigarLink plugs straight into TORO Cigar POS — pricing updates land in your catalog without migration or dual entry. Running something else? Get in touch and we'll work out the integration.
- Who's already publishing to CigarLink?
- Over 200 price sheets from real manufacturers and brokers are already flowing through. Not just the small guys.
- Do I control what gets into my catalog?
- Yes. AI extraction surfaces changes; every row is yours to accept, skip, or edit before it lands in your catalog. Your markup stays yours to set.
- What if my vendor doesn't use CigarLink yet?
- Send us the email address they use to distribute price sheets, and we'll reach out. Most add themselves passively — they just email a sheet to
[email protected] and it's in.
- Is my shop's data visible to vendors?
- No. Every account is isolated. Your sales, margins, and vendor relationships stay in your workspace.
- How does pricing change my inventory value?
- Your POS values inventory at the prices you entered — often years ago. When CigarLink updates every SKU to current pricing, the book value jumps to match reality. Not new money — money that was always there.
- Who is CigarLink for — retailers or vendors?
- Both. Retailers plug in to pull current pricing. Vendors publish once and reach every connected retailer. One pipeline, two sides.
- Is CigarLink related to TORO Cigar POS?
- Yes — sibling products. TORO is the point-of-sale system for cigar shops. CigarLink is the pricing pipeline that feeds it. Born from the same shop floor.
