Benefits of EPoS

Improve the performance potential of your business with the following EPoS benefits:

Faster service - By scanning your customers’ purchases and training your staff more quickly, you will be able to offer a more efficient service and cut down on queuing/waiting time.

Stock control – An EPoS system generates valuable information about your stock levels. It tells you when stock is low, reports on wastage and profit margins and prevents you from over or under ordering. It also generates purchase orders on a per supplier basis, which can be printed out and faxed/emailed to your suppliers.

Loyalty scheme – An EPoS system allows you to give individual loyalty cards to your customers, which they can use to collect points as they spend money with your business. You can decide how to reward your customers once they have earned a set number of points.

Chip & PIN – EPoS systems are designed to accommodate the Chip & PIN system. Aside from cutting credit card fraud, the sophistication of chip cards means they can support add-on services such as retailer loyalty schemes.

Monitor sales trends – Your EPoS system can store valuable information regarding sales patterns, which will help you maximise the sale of popular products.
