This visibility into your business performance will help you to identify areas of your business that are performing well and others that may need to improve.

9. Detailed Receipts
EPoS systems provide your customers with detailed receipts instead of a simple piece of paper with the date and the amount of sale. Our systems use stock data to provide much more information, including product description, price, and savings from a sale or coupon. You also have the option to customize a specific segment of the receipt like the footer. This can be used to state your return policy, or promote your social media channels or even add a custom message.
