1. An Insight On Different POS Terminals And Their Working
POS terminals are just standard computers running software to facilitate the operation of a store at a
point of sale. The point of sale is wherever transactions take place within a store (also referred to as the
place of purchase). At a designated counter or checkout area and at the large majority of retail
locations, these POS machines are located.
Consequently, the fundamental purpose of a point of sale terminal is to simply enable a customer to pay
for its items. Today, this means that you are reading your credit or debit card and you are authorized to
confirm your purchase and then print a receipt. However, terminals for points of sale will usually do
much more. A majority of shops depend on their terminals for their inventory management. IWL220 and
ICT220 are the examples of models of some good POS machines.

2. For example, if the arrangement is still on site, a florist may use the “point of sale” terminal of his
company. In the past it would have been a manual process to confirm the location of the arrangement,
including calling the driver to check his status. Point-of-sale end-users supply this kind of information
with a single click system. A shop can have one or several POS terminals depending on its needs. By
utilizing the POS machines, now there is no need of going to ATM.
How POS terminal works?
Each terminal has a credit-card swipe tool, receipt printer and generally a cash drawer. All devices are
connected to the same server, providing a central database to collect information on all transactions in
one store. A barcode scanner is also connected by many shop owners. In order to respond to a store's
unique needs, there is an endless range of devices that can be integrated into a point of sale terminal.
