POS & mPOS Overview

The POS (Point of Sale) and mPOS (Mobile Point of Sale) modules in Store OS are designed to facilitate assisted checkout experiences in physical retail stores. These modules allow store staff to create and manage customer orders, accept payments, and perform sales operations directly from terminals or mobile devices. Both POS and mPOS operate on the same backend infrastructure powered by Fynd Commerce, ensuring real-time synchronization of catalog, inventory, orders, and promotions across all channels.

POS vs mPOS

  • POS is optimized for terminal-based checkout systems at billing counters.
  • mPOS is designed for portable Android or iOS devices, allowing store staff to assist customers anywhere in the store.
