What is a POS system?

POS stands for Point of Sale and at a very basic level means the area where a customer completes a transaction. POS software can be thought of like a digital cash register, allowing business owners to process sales and take payments. POS software also typically includes other functionality related to running a store including inventory management, stock control, customer loyalty programs, reporting and employee management.

What is cloud-based POS software?

Traditional desktop point of sale software is downloaded onto one computer and physically connected to a cash register. Cloud-based point of sale software can be directly accessed from the web and offers a streamlined system that works on most devices and gives users the ability to manage their POS anywhere there’s a wifi connection.
