STOP Overpaying for Point-of-Sale – Open’s iPad POS is Cheaper by More Than 70%!3 min read
In order to compare how an iPad POS system is cheaper than a traditional POS system, we first must do the math on what a traditional POS system actually will cost you. A question that is commonly asked is: “How much will my POS (point of sale) system cost me?” That’s an excellent and very important question to ponder – no matter if you are in the retail industry, the hotel industry or the food service business; business models that all rely upon a POS system to conduct and to process transactions, send credit card batches to the bank, run and crunch numbers, create reports on sales, profits, losses and inventory tracking and management, as well other things, like managing and tracking returns and so on.
The answer is not something that most people want to hear. According to a leading maker of POS systems and POS software, the software license cost will range from $1,200 – $2,500, and that’s just for a single use license; if you have more than one location using POS, keep adding that license price tag per location. If you need POS terminals, well you had better open up your wallet, and rather wide at that, because according to leading makers of the systems, they will tap into your account to the tune of between $3,000 – $4,000 per workstation or terminal. So add up the numbers, less the extended warranty – which is estimated to run about $200 per workstation – and you have pretty hefty end number; something that most smaller businesses and restaurants simply cannot afford. Enter in the financial and technological digital savior of the present day: iPad POS systems – which are more than 70% cheaper than any traditional POS system, and 110% more useful, reliable and effective.
What Makes iPad POS Systems Better?
There are numerous caveats that comprise why an iPad POS system easily defeats any traditional point-of-sale-system, and by a long shot at that. For starters, you won’t require any bulky and costly terminals that take up space, require nearly constant maintenance, and that suck power and energy, and are environmentally unfriendly. Secondly, using a simple iPad tablet – which will run about $200 as opposed to as much as $4,000 – you can run and manage your entire iPad POS system, and securely at that. The software is not very costly, either.
