CRA
Target: Dec 2026Michigan CRA-aware dispensary platform
Built for the 3-10 store Michigan operator who’s outgrown off-the-shelf POS but isn’t paying 365 Cannabis enterprise rates. CRA rules native — Metrc integration in flight, 10% retail excise + 24% CRFTA wholesale excise (effective Jan 1, 2026) + 6% sales tax, cross-store reporting that actually rolls up, and the medical / adult-use lane split CRA requires. Multi-store data architecture is the wedge — built around the seams a 3-10 store operator actually hits.
Regulator
Michigan Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA)
https://www.michigan.gov/cra ↗Your rules, handled
Michigan’s cannabis retail rules — what the CRA requires at the counter, how sales are reported to the state, and what the taxes are — are researched from the regulator’s own pages and coded into the register. You run the shop; the rules are handled at the sale.
At the register, as of September 2026: the 10% adult-use excise plus 6% state sales tax, with medical sales outside the excise; the 24% wholesale tax that took effect January 1, 2026 is a wholesale-tier tax, not a receipt line.
Coverage here — honestly
Michigan coverage is written against CRA rules: the bulletins, the statewide-monitoring-system entry duty in R 420.505(2) (which is contemporaneous — the CRA sets no daily reconciliation cadence; “reconcil” appears once in the entire rule set, R 420.1 to R 420.1004, and it is about WASTE), the CRFTA wholesale tier landing Jan 1 2026, and the adult-use vs medical lane split. We keep it current as the CRA moves, and where something isn’t built for MI yet we say so before you sign.
