Quick checkout. Accurate counts.
For a store, checkout is the last impression a customer takes home. A slow terminal or a confusing screen costs more than a few seconds.
Some shops only need a reliable countertop terminal. Others want a point-of-sale system that tracks items and stock. We'll help you work out which you actually need.

What to think about
Before you choose.
Terminal or full POS?
A terminal handles payments. A POS system can add item catalogs, inventory counts and sales reports where available.
Returns and refunds
How refunds are handled at the register matters for staff and for your statement.
Selling online too
If you also sell online, we can look at in-store and web payments together.
Seasonal volume
Holiday peaks change your volume and card mix — worth factoring into which pricing approach makes sense.
Solutions to consider
- In-person counter payments
- Point-of-sale systems
- Online payments for a web store
Equipment categories
- Countertop terminals
- Point-of-sale systems
- Handheld terminals for line-busting
Pricing worth discussing
Interchange plus. Useful when ticket sizes and card mix vary across the year.
Dual pricing. May suit stores comfortable posting cash and card prices on shelves and receipts.
Common questions

- Can my POS track inventory?
- Many POS systems offer inventory features, but they vary by system and plan. We'll confirm what's available for the setup you choose.
