Point of Sale Technology

What exactly is point of sale technology?  I like to think of it as the technology required to put money onto your account. Sounds simple enough, but this can be quite a task to make it work smoothly and seamlessly.  Here we'll go over the high level detail that should both help you during your payment experience, as well as provide some additional information that hopefully you'll find interested.


There are really two main sides to payment technology as I see it.  The first is the side that you, the customer will see. The second is the back end technology that is invisible to you, but if it doesn't work properly can most certainly cause you (and the store) tremendous heartache.  Here we'll focus on cash payments as opposed to direct payment technology.  Click here for a review of these different payment options.


Three of the main technologies include:

  1. POS Terminals
  2. Web Terminals
  3. Payment Kiosks
