Many retailers still rely on traditional cash registers from Sharp, Casio or similar manufacturers. However, what used to work reliably is now coming up against clear limits: These models are no longer fit for the future, as they can neither be adapted to new legal requirements nor meet modern expectations of a POS system. Without updates, support and modern functions, day-to-day work becomes unnecessarily complicated.
Thesolution: a digital POS system from LocaFox. This not only ensures full legal compliance (TSE, GoBD, KassenSichV), but also efficient processes, simple operation and reliable support from Germany - perfect for modern retail.
Old cash registers are technically outdated and often no longer legally compliant. With the digital POS system from LocaFox, you ensure full legal security, modern functions and a clear competitive advantage.
Sharp and Casio have left the market - their devices do not receive any updates and no longer meet the legal requirements. Rely on a future-proof solution that grows with your business.
Manufacturers have completely withdrawn from the cash register market, meaning that there are no longer any further developments, spare parts or technical support.
The legal requirements are even more serious: Since the introduction of the Cash Register Security Ordinance (KassenSichV) and the TSE obligation, all cash register systems must meet strict guidelines in order to be legally secure. Old cash registers are generally unable to implement these requirements - the risk of complaints from the tax office or even fines increases considerably.
There are also clear disadvantages in day-to-day operations:
❌ No cloud connection, so no location-independent overview of sales
❌ No integration of merchandise management, accounting or digital payments
❌ No access to modern functions such as voucher management, discount promotions or digital receipts
❌ No possibility to scale processes or adapt them to new requirements
In short: with an old cash register, retailers waste valuable time, risk legal problems and lose out to the competition.
While old cash registers are increasingly becoming a burden, a modern POS system from LocaFox opens up completely new possibilities. Not only do you work reliably and in compliance with the law, you also benefit from functions that make your day-to-day business much easier. Whether a small store, boutique, snack bar or branch operation - LocaFox grows flexibly with your requirements.

With LocaFox , you work in compliance with TSE and GoBD, benefit from a cloud connection, integrated merchandise management, interfaces to DATEV & payment providers, as well as reliable support from Germany. This turns your cash register into a real management tool.
