Frequently asked questions about mobile ePOS systems

What is a mobile ePOS?

A mobile ePOS (electronic point of sale) is a portable point of sale system that operates on handheld hardware like a tablet or smartphone. An electronic point of sale is a system comprised of hardware and software that lets you facilitate and manage sales and transactions.

A mobile ePOS has many advantages, including enabling staff to provide better customer service, faster checkout, streamlined payments, and greater flexibility to move around the floor.

What is the difference between fixed ePOS and mobile ePOS?

A fixed ePOS is one that is fixed on a counter and has more hardware requirements, from a computer, to a register and payment terminals. In comparison, a mobile ePOS operates from one device like a tablet or smartphone.

Some ePOS systems can be used both online and offline. When a ePOS functions offline, you can still process payments when the internet goes down.

Does a ePOS need internet?

Cloud-based ePOS systems typically have the ability to function offline, but to operate at full capacity, internet is required.
