Sale now on for our award-winning EPOS system

From accessing sales and inventory data to processing sales as a cash register, modern POS systems take care of a business' entire operation, which leads to them also being referred to as electronic POS solutions, as they really do offer an all-in-one solution..

How businesses use them also depends on their individual needs. Retailers connect them to a barcode scanner and speed up their checkouts, adding integrated card machines with speedy contactless payments that work with popular payment methods like Apple Pay and Google Pay. Meanwhile, a restaurant POS system

It's important POS vendors like Epos Now update their technology to ensure they can protect their users while giving them all the options they need. Epos Now, for instance, offers e-commerce and delivery options even in point of sale systems for small business, making competing as a multi-channel business easier than ever.

Many factors go into a point-of-sale terminal's pricing, including the amount of terminals needed, extra accessories and software, and more. There is also more than just the upfront cost to consider, accessing mobile payments means paying a % fee to the provider, often with additional line rental and other monthly fees. This means a lower upfront cost may cost more in the long run, hindering your long-term business growth.

We highly recommend that businesses purchase whatever is needed to build the most successful enterprise, as the costs of a POS system built for your needs is far outweighed by its ability to optimise your business and lower other costs such as payroll and wastage. Our custom POS device bundles come with portable card machines and cash drawers, but you can add any specialist hardware that will help you run your business such as a tablet.

However, our sales team will be more than happy to lead you through building your POS platform and finding a deal that works for you, with your budget and needs in mind.

Epos Now EPOS systems are easy to set up. Every system we sell comes with an easy-to-understand instruction manual and our software operates through a straightforward mobile app. In addition, in your first month with us, you’ll be assigned an implementation specialist to ensure your system is running as it should be. They'll work to get you fully confident not only in using the system to run and manage trade and accessing your sales data, but also in teaching your staff to process sales and use the system for necessary tasks such as stock checks and, for some staff, end of day closes. 

In essence, the process works like this: 

Step 1 - Set up the hardware as described in the instruction manual. 

Step 2 - Turn it on and follow the setup wizard to connect to the internet, add accessories, company details, and logo for receipt customisation.

Step 3 - Now it's time to set up your terminal point of sale software. This includes adding your products, prices, inventory, staff, and customer profiles to the system.

Once setup is finished, you can learn to use them and start training your staff on the system in as little as 15 minutes! Should you need any assistance, our 24/7 support team is here to help and all our customers have full access to the Epos Now Support Centre. The Support Centre contains detailed articles on all our hardware and software, so you can always read up on any part of your EPOS till system you're not fully confident with!

Every business has its own unique needs. Therefore, the best point of sale program for one business may be entirely unsuited to another.

That's why we're proud to offer EPOS systems that are crafted for your business and industry.

If you operate a retail store, you'll be best served by a POS system that can quickly process transactions and track a large inventory down to your last piece of stock, including stock for your online store.

Hospitality businesses need a POS system that can deliver smooth service between the front and back of house (such as integrating with a kitchen display system), handle customer relationship management (including creating customer loyalty schemes), and a solid, adaptable inventory system.

With Epos Now, you'll be able to build a point of sale machine that meets the exact needs of your business, thanks to our robust hardware and customisable software.

Point of sale (POS) and customer relationship management (CRM) are two different things. However, a good point of sale system, such as Epos Now systems, will have CRM tools that help you manage your relationship with customers. These include:

• Customer profiles that allow you to create a database of customers, including key information such as delivery data, purchase history, contact information for marketing, and their marketing preferences. These profiles also allow you to extend and track customer credit and, where relevant, past and upcoming bookings

• Memberships that allow you to offer custom pricing and offers to repeat customers that sign-up to your business, as well as loyalty programs that boost engagement with your business and reward long-term customers

• Communication and marketing tools such as the Mailchimp email integration which allow you to update your customers on your latest offers, events, and product lines, keeping them coming back for more!
