Canuck Covers is two years old on July 1, 2022. We design and manufacture protective covers for payment devices, the best on the market, anywhere.

Located in British Columbia’s beautiful Okanagan Valley, we started serving local businesses and now supply high-quality, highly effective covers to companies all the way to the opposite coast of Canada.

These include major organizations such as BC Ferries and a group of McDonald’s restaurants in southern Ontario. In a one-month test at a high-volume, drive-thru location, one of our covers went through 35,000+ transactions with no noticeable wear and zero machine failures.

Canuck Covers responded to their needs and specifications. And we will do the same for you, no matter the size of your company. In fact, small businesses make up the majority of our orders. Busy all week, they often contact us on Sundays and, more often than not, we ship on Monday.

Because we know it’s important. We’re a small business, too. But Canuck Covers is steadily growing, and we want the same for you. Let’s grow together.


Canuck Covers are 100% Made in Canada.

Where does the time go?

I don’t think that question comes to mind when we count the candles and see that Canada turns 154 years old on July 1st.

But it sure does for me because Canuck Covers turns 1 on the very same day.




Seems like a just a teeny while ago that I designed the very first

Deluxe cover, made 5 of them and sold them.

All my first customers were from here in the Okanagan, then around the province.

The website we built ourselves started getting noticed across the country: we got our first order from Québec just after Christmas followed by several from Ontario.



A milestone on Monday, March 8 — International Women’s Day — we got an order for covers from the eastern edge of Newfoundland, about as far as you can get in Canada from BC. Canuck Covers was coast to coast!


It’s not, of course, all about sales but hey, this is a business. We gotta keep the lights on in here. Along with the success we’re starting to have getting Canuck Covers onto POS machines and protecting them from the hazards of daily use, there’s been a lot of work behind the scenes.


Finding out from customers that drop protection was not a priority for many of them, I designed the Standard cover at a lower price point. A custom request led to the creation of the Square Terminal cover. (We do custom work, if possible, usually within a week.) We worked on getting word out. We re-built the website, ourselves—it’s a constant challenge, folks.


And I wouldn’t have it any other way. We believe in our products and we’re constantly seeking improvements to serve you better.

But on the 1st birthday of Canuck Covers, I believe I’ll take a few minutes out on the deck to reflect on the past year, raise a toast to all my first customers, and start thinking about the year ahead.


Good day and good luck,

I like those little old neighbourhood cafés and stores that display their first sale ever by pinning a fiver on the wall behind the cash. Even more special when it’s a $1 or $2 bill ‘cause they’ve been out of circulation for (can you believe it?) around 30 years. (BTW, those are no longer legal tender, so if you have any stuffed away somewhere, they’re now souvenirs. Banks will redeem them, though.)


My first customer was T-Bones, an amazing meat market here in the Okanagan Valley, in business since 2004. Besides their excellent meats, they do a lot of delicious appetizers, sides, and desserts. Even a great pet section! I know all this because I’ve been a customer of theirs since long before I brought them one of the new Canuck Covers that I’d designed, in early 2020.



Long story short, they decided that protecting their POS machines would be a good thing and bought the cover. That was special, even right to this day when we’re selling Canuck Covers from one coast to another across Canada. I’ll always remember it.

Then they bought covers for all 5 of their locations, averaging 200 transactions per store, per day. They sanitize the cover on each payment unit before every customer so they can see it’s been cleaned. So my Canuck Cover babies have been put to the test for a whole year at a busy retailer. I dropped in to ask store manager Pamela how they’ve been performing at T-Bones.


Here’s a little bit of that convo…


Me: Have the covers helped with the amount of service calls you need for your payment devices?


Pamela: Well, at the beginning of COVID, we killed 5 machines across our stores in a very short time frame. Since we have had our covers, not one single call has been placed. The math shows itself.


Me: How do you like the Carry Case?


Pamela: We love it. We use it for delivery but mostly for our curbside pick-up that runs at all our locations. It’s nice to have hands-free when checking out with a customer. And we use the front pocket to store our receipts ‘til shift-end.

Thanks, Pamela. And thank you, T-Bones, for doing everything you do, and for being my very first customer! It touches my heart.
