A Point of Sale (POS) System is a technology platform used by businesses to process transactions, manage sales, and handle other operational tasks. It is the place where a customer completes a purchase and can include hardware (such as terminals and scanners) and software (for tracking sales, inventory, and customer data).
A POS system not only allows businesses to accept payments but also provides a range of features to improve business operations, streamline workflows, and enhance customer service. These systems are commonly used in retail stores, restaurants, cafes, and other businesses where transactions take place.
