Not sure what to look for when it comes to your POS system and cash register? We’ve got you covered. Read on in our blog below with how Lifelong’s system will simplify your charging for, ringing up, and tracking sales and payments.
8 Factors to Look for in a POS System
When you select a POS system you want something that makes your life easier, not harder. You want an all around solution, not just a simple iPad cash register. That’s because a cash register, even a tablet one, simply takes the payments for your sales. However, Lifelong Merchant Services provides a comprehensive POS system that takes care of multiple aspects of your business.
With so many POS system options it might feel overwhelming. In fact, you might not even be sure where to begin. As you type something on Google as simple as ‘cash register for my business’ you’ll get an unlimited amount of results. Taking credit cards for payment might start to feel like a daunting task.
But, never fear. Lifelong is here to help you determine what you need to look for in a POS system. Our goal is always to make payment processing simple for our clients.
Without further ado, below are eight qualities in a POS system that every business owner deserves.
1. Security
In today’s digital world, cyber security is extremely important. No one wants to provide something as sensitive as their credit card information to a business if they can’t guarantee it will be safe to do so. Lifelong ensures a secure payment gateway every time.
2. Ease-of-use
Not only do we offer software that is easy to use and intuitive, but our support staff is always there for you should you run into any problems. We want our clients to not only feel comfortable using our system, but also secure in the fact they know we are there should something come up.
3. Integration
Technology has the ability to make things simpler or more complicated. One way to make sure it’s the former is by utilizing integrative software. Our system easily integrates into popular marketing and accounting programs, such as MailChimp or QuickBooks.
4. Support
There is always a chance any piece of technology will have issues or you’ll be unsure about how to do something on it. Therefore, it’s vital to have a team that will support you and your business when either happens. If you go with a straight iPad cash register there likely isn’t a whole team waiting to assist like we have at Lifelong.
5. Features
Lifelong’s POS system goes well beyond simply accepting payments for services or products. It has six amazing features that include:
- Reporting & accounting
- Inventory management
- Warehouse management
- Employee management
- Multi location features
- Loyalty program
6. Longevity
We’ve established ourselves as a revolutionary solution to helping merchants integrate technology and payments since 2021. We are here for the long run, as evidenced by our motto. “Not Your Partner For A Day But Your Partner For Life.”
7. No Hidden Fees
There is nothing more frustrating than purchasing a product or service then finding out there is a hidden fee. When you choose Lifelong you say goodbye to hidden fees.
8. Short Contracts
Like no hidden fees, a long contract is a major turnoff for business owners. At Lifelong we fully understand that, which is why we have short contracts at Lifelong!
