The problem

Most POS decisions get made in a hurry: a sales rep demo, a bundled card reader, or whatever a friend uses. Months later, the business is paying for features it never touches, can't move its data, or is stuck in an equipment lease.

This kit gives you a structured way to define your requirements first, then compare systems on the things that matter: total cost, fit with your workflow, and how easy it is to leave.

What’s included

Requirements worksheet

Map how you sell today (counter, tableside, mobile, online), your inventory needs and your must-have reports.

Total-cost calculator

A fill-in sheet for software, hardware, processing and add-on costs over 36 months, so quotes compare on equal terms.

Vendor question list

30 questions to ask every POS provider, grouped by pricing, contracts, hardware, data and support.

Demo scorecard

Score each demo against your own requirements instead of the salesperson's script.

Hardware checklist

What you need at each station, and what to check before buying or leasing.

Switch-over plan

A one-page plan for moving products, customers and gift-card balances to a new system.

Who it’s for

  • Retail shops, cafés, salons and service counters choosing their first POS
  • Businesses unhappy with their current POS and planning to switch
  • Owners adding in-person sales to an online store

Not the right fit: Businesses that need a full enterprise ERP or multi-country rollout.

Deliverables

  • POS System Selection Kit (PDF, instant download)
  • Requirements worksheet, cost calculator, question list, scorecard, hardware checklist and switch-over plan, all inside the PDF

How it works

  1. Check out and download the kit straight away.
  2. Fill in the requirements worksheet (about 30 minutes).
  3. Shortlist three systems, run demos with the scorecard and pick the best fit.

Questions

Do you recommend a specific POS brand?

No. The kit is vendor-neutral. It helps you compare whichever systems are available and sensible in your area and industry.

Is this a physical product?

No. It is a downloadable PDF delivered instantly after checkout, and the download link is also emailed to you.

Will this tell me which processor rates are best?

It shows you how to compare processing costs from real quotes. Rates change often and depend on your business, so we don't publish rate tables.

Can I get help applying it?

Yes. If you would rather have us handle the selection and setup, see the Financial Solutions Setup service.
