iPad POS systems<\/a> work by turning Apple\u2019s flagship tablet into a touchscreen POS terminal using software installed via the App Store. Other devices can be connected via Bluetooth or GPRS. Generally speaking, POS apps tend to be free as standalone software, however, some providers sell complete hardware packages including\ncard readers, receipt printers, routers, and even the tablet devices themselves as part of a bundle.<\/p>\nAt poshunter.com, we help you understand the differences between POS iPad providers and how they work.<\/p>\n\nSumUp POS<\/a><\/li>\nSquare POS<\/a><\/li>\nPayPal POS<\/a><\/li>\nEpos Now<\/a><\/li>\nVectron<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n2.
