Commerce 101: What is a POS System? - Dash Force News

There have been many conversations in the Dash community about the need for and development of a good Point of Sale (POS) system. Frequently the goal is “signing up local retailers.” We should define our terms. A POS system can be as simple or as complex as the business that uses it.
From Wikipedia.org – “Point of sale system software can typically handle a myriad of customer based functions such as sales, returns, exchanges, layaways, gift cards, gift registries, customer loyalty programs, promotions, discounts and much more. POS software can also allow for functions such as pre-planned promotional sales, manufacturer coupon validation, foreign currency handling and multiple payment types.”
