Point of Sale (POS)

A Point of Sale (POS) system is where a customer completes a purchase at a store or online. It can be a physical register or digital setup that processes transactions and manages sales. When you buy something, the POS records the sale, calculates the total, applies taxes, and processes payment, often via cash, credit, or debit cards. Additionally, POS systems track inventory, generate sales reports, and can offer customer insights, making them essential tools for retailers and restaurants to streamline operations and improve customer service.
