The best can not only track sales and inventory, but help manage employees, improve internal communications, and plan marketing campaigns or customer loyalty programs. A POS might be as simple as a single iPad with a quarter-sized card-reader for a mall kiosk, or it might cover multiple registers in multiple locations for a big restaurant chain. In all cases, the right POS system should pay for itself several times over, since it streamlines every aspect of a business’s typical operations.
