A Guide to POS Systems in Indonesia: Comparing 7 Popular POS Software

It isn’t an exaggeration to say that a good point-of-sale (POS) system can help your business operate more efficiently.

If you’re not yet familiar with the concept, a POS system is an all-in-one software that helps you manage customer payments and orders, whether they’re shopping in-person or online. Most POS systems also offer additional functionalities such as inventory and employee shift management.

Getting a POS software installed for your business can be a major upgrade if you’re used to a more manual system since it allows you to track your sales transactions in real-time.

Additionally, by using POS software, your business automatically will be able to accept payments using QR codes and other cashless payment systems. However, that’s not all it can do. The details of what each system has to offer will differ, though. And with so many available choices in the Indonesian market right now, how do you choose the most suitable POS system for your business needs?

Let us help you with that. In this article, we’ve taken a look at some of the most popular small business POS software in Indonesia and highlighted their pros and cons.
