Everyone keeps telling you to get a POS - so what actually is it and why should you get one?
At its simplest, a Point of Sale (POS) system is a combination of hardware and software that allows your customers to purchase good or services from your business.
Sounds simple enough, doesn't it? So what makes a POS better than the cash register you have been using for years?
In a word, efficiency.
A Point of Sale system will not only facilitate sales and payments, but can also keep track of your stock, facilitate communication between different areas of your business, talk directly to your accounting solution and many other business systems that you use on a day to day basis.
For hospitality venues this means printing dockets directly to your kitchen, bar and barista, transferring stock from one area to another and greater clarity regarding what you are selling and when - just for a start. Retail sites can process sales, create and manage laybys and special orders, as well as vouchers and stock management, without needing to pull out multiple books or spreadsheets.
