point-of-sale system
Register's digital replacement
A point-of-sale system is the hardware and software where retail transactions occur—the modern replacement for the cash register.
It processes payments, tracks inventory, and records sales data.
Commonly abbreviated POS: We need to upgrade our POS system.
The term often shortens to just point of sale: The coupon is scanned at point of sale.
