A Mobile Retail POS: Design and Implementation

Published:21 June 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

This paper presents an efficient mobile POS (point of sale) system-one that will not cripple an entire company that happens to the business. Another goal is to make an easy-to-understand user's interface (UI) and allow for improvements to be made easily based on the needs of the business owner. The former will be accomplished by creating a web-based POS, which means that the only thing limiting the system is the access of the internet. Outages and "down time" are virtually non-existent with proper management. The latter will be assessed in the actual formation, using a minimalistic format which can easily be tailored to the needs of the user. The benefits of using this sort of POS go far beyond simply improving the user experience and minimizing technical errors; businessmen that have to interact with clients on-the-go will be able to easily access the system all the same, allowing for some much needed flexibility in small businesses.
