What is a Touch Cash Register?

Everyone knows them and many already work with a tablet at home. In the meantime, they are not just entertainment toys for private use, but are increasingly being used as cash register systems in the catering and retail sectors. This means that you can conveniently control the cash register with your fingers, much like you do with your smartphone. The touch cash register or touch POS system is basically a modern version of the usual cash register, except that you have many more options at your disposal. Small and medium-sized businesses in particular benefit from this.
