The free POS system that fits your business.

POS System Hardware in Australia

What POS hardware you choose will depend on the size and industry of your business. While a POS system traditionally includes a countertop computer and display, today, more and more businesses are opting for sleeker tablet-style setups. Businesses that process payments in-person will require an EFTPOS machine or a mobile payment app (Tap to Pay) to accept card and contactless payments and businesses that accept cash, will need a cash drawer to securely store money and provide change to customers. A receipt printer may also be included for printing customer receipts or for businesses that need to print order dockets for the kitchen, and for retail businesses, a barcode scanner may help make the checkout process quicker.

Point of Sale Software Features

The most basic and important feature of point of sale software is to accept payments. Depending on the needs of your business, this may include accepting online payments through your eCommerce site, accepting in-person payments, or processing card-not-present transactions. Most point of sale software will also include the ability to update your inventory whenever a customer orders a meal, or buys or returns an item. This allows you to easily track stock levels, anticipate when popular items will run out, and stay on budget by purchasing supplies only when necessary. For dine-in hospitality businesses, POS software can also aid in managing floors and tables and helping staff to make bookings and manage reservations, waitlists, and track table turnover rates. POS software can also provide daily, weekly, and monthly sales reports which can help to identify top-selling products, purchasing behaviours, and more. Additionally, POS software can simplify time tracking and scheduling and can double as a customer relationship management (CRM) tool.

Leading Cloud-based POS Software: Zeller POS Lite

Traditionally, POS systems in Australia have been installed and run on a computer or server on the business premises – referred to as “on-premise”. However, today, more and more cloud-based POS systems have become available, offering a POS that is entirely decentralised and accessed online. While on-premise POS systems are installed and run on a computer physically located on the business premises, cloud-based POS systems are hosted on remote servers and accessed through the internet.
