How does a POS system work at a small business?
A POS system allows your business to accept payments from customers and keep track of sales. It sounds simple enough, but the setup can work in different ways, depending on whether you sell online, have a physical storefront, or both.
A point-of-sale system is used to refer to the cash register at a store. Today, modern POS systems are entirely digital, which means you can check out a customer wherever you are. You only need a POS app and an internet-enabled device, such as a tablet or phone.
