How Can an Advanced EPOS System Help Manage Your Jewellery Store?
Whether you own a jewellery brand or manage a store, keeping track of staff and making sure clients are happy and get what they need is key. That’s why having the most efficient retail EPOS system is essential. Not only will it process sales, but it will also help streamline your daily processes, collect customer information, help you manage stock and much more. Here the team of retail experts from Eurostop wanted to share some of the biggest benefits of implementing high-quality retail EPOS systems. Insight into Your Customers’ Buying Habits Arguably one of the most important aspects of retail EPOS solutions is that they help you collect information about customers and their preferences. Furthermore, if you have the right reporting and insights to use this data effectively, you will be able to analyse buying habits and really get to know your customers to build a relationship with them. In store, sales associates can utilise this information to provide a personalised shopping experience, making recommendations for cross-selling and up-selling based on past buying history. Such information can also be used by head office or your marketing department for targeted marketing campaigns, customer loyalty programs, and more. Offering Discounts by Category When people purchase jewellery, they’re often celebrating an important occasion or looking for a special gift. You can take advantage of this by segmenting data and perhaps offering targeted promotions at particular times of the year or discounts which can also be setup and applied automatically at point of sale. Offering promotions in certain stores may also be used to increase footfall in targeted locations. Creating & Tracking Orders Another important advantage of retail EPOS systems is that they can be connected to your central Head Office system and other business applications. With this integrated tech stack you can create records of suppliers and manage and track purchase orders, deliveries and transfers across your warehouse and store estate. This all helps you to record and maintain accurate visibility of your stock to allocate and replenish stores according to demand.

Why All Businesses Should Have a Modern ePOS System
Why All Businesses Should Have a Modern ePOS System If you’re a business owner, then you know that there are a lot of complex, interlinked, and variable processes to maintain to ensure that your business runs smoothly. You have to make sure that your products are in stock (and conversely that you don’t hold too much stock), that your employees are doing their jobs correctly, and that your customers are receiving the best omnichannel experience. One way to facilitate this, and also make your life a little bit easier, is by implementing a modern ePOS system into your POS estate and retail business. Here are the benefits of retail ePOS systems and why every business needs to use them. Rapid Transactions Your business will be able to serve customers much more efficiently with an up-to-date ePOS system. An intuitive and connected retail system will let your sales associates process transactions quickly and easily with fewer mistakes, with the correct information available at the point of sale to provide the best possible customer service. This also means that you’ll be able to make more sales, which will boost your business’ productivity and bottom line. Additionally, there will be fewer mistakes per transaction, which brings a host of benefits. First, you’ll save time since you won’t have to go back and fix errors or have inaccurate data. Second, you’ll avoid the hassle and cost of returns or exchanges. Finally, your customers will be more likely to have a positive experience with your business, which could lead to repeat business or referrals. Improved Reporting You’ll be able to track your sales data more accurately with a connected ePOS system. With the right tools, this valuable data can provide a wealth of information, enabling you to make informed decisions about your business. For example, a well-designed retail and reporting system can allow you to report by attributes such as season, or level in your hierarchy. That way you can see how well certain categories, such as T-shirts, are selling – with options to report down even to colour and size variants. See what is selling well and what cover you have so that you can adjust your purchasing and merchandising accordingly. You can also use customer loyalty data to improve your marketing efforts or target specific discounts or upselling opportunities. This is particularly important as retail evolves and consumers expect a hyper-personalised service. Productivity Benefits Spread to Other Areas Once you’ve implemented a modern ePOS system, you’ll start to see productivity benefits in other areas of your business as well. For example, your employees will be able to spend more time helping customers, since the right technology will empower them, providing the best platform and data to enable them to focus on the customer experience. Additionally, you may find that you have more time to focus on other aspects of your business since the ePOS system will be handling a lot of the grunt work.

Choosing POS Systems: On-Premise vs Cloud-Based vs Hybrid
Choosing POS Systems: On-Premise vs Cloud-Based vs Hybrid If you’re looking for the perfect Point-of-Sale (POS) system to support your retail operation, it’s important to think about how the system will be hosted when making your decision. In terms of the basics, most POS systems today are fairly uniform. They almost always include: Terminals or tablets for viewing product, customer and sales transaction information Barcode scanners A PDQ (Process Data Quickly) machine for Chip & PIN or contactless card payments Receipt printers Cash storage POS software, which also may include inventory tracking and Customer Relationship Management One of the differences between systems is how they’re hosted and accessed. These models can be broken down into three types: on-premise, cloud-based, and hybrid. Let’s take a look at the differences between them. The Three Major Types of POS System Implementations 1 – On-Premise An on-premise system means that all information is stored locally, on your own systems. So you require suitable servers to ensure adequate system performance and appropriate space or a data center to house the equipment. This does give you a high degree of control over your own data, as well as meaning that your POS system can continue to function even if you lose your external internet connection. There are also security benefits since you aren’t accessing external networks. However, this can also be a very risky choice if you don’t have the correct infrastructure, resource and expertise to maintain resiliency. Unless you setup and maintain database backups, there will always be a significant danger of system failure or data loss. Likewise, if your servers go down, you’ll need an up to date disaster recovery plan to get you up and running as quickly as possible – essential in the always on retail environment. 2 – Cloud-Based With a cloud-based POS system, all the software and data are stored off-site, in external cloud servers. You won’t require your own data center or need to worry about hardware. This means that your system can be accessed anywhere in the world, allowing for robust remote POS setups, or even pop-up stands at locations such as trade shows. In addition, it’s typically very easy to deploy software updates, since updates on the cloud server will be instantly available to everyone. However, data storage and security will only be as good as the cloud host you use. Some hosts may also claim additional ownership or rights over the information. Plus, if you lose your internet connection, you lose access to the system. 3 – Hybrid Hybrid systems are a best-of-both-world solution. They utilise both local and cloud-based servers, often with one set to failover to the other in case of problems. When properly implemented, you get all the benefits of both types, with very few drawbacks aside from being moderately more expensive to initially deploy. Eurostop Eurostop offers one of the most-trusted hybrid POS systems in the world, powering a long list of highly successful retail operations. Contact us for a free demonstration.
Must-Have Features in Retail EPOS Systems for 2021 & Beyond
Must-Have Features in Retail EPOS Systems for 2021 and Beyond As with all technology, retail EPOS (Electronic Point-of-Sale) systems are continuing to evolve and improve every year. You probably already have an EPOS system in place, but if it’s been more than a few years, chances are it’s lacking many of the features that are now coming to be seen as standard – and expected. This won’t simply put you at a disadvantage relative to other retailers with more modern systems. It can even harm your customer experience, and good CX is critical for holding onto customers. Today’s retail EPOS systems are robust and full-featured, capable of handling a wide variety of tasks at once which saves time and money while improving service. For example… Full Mobile Payment Support EPOS systems are no longer locked to physical sites. The best EPOS service providers also offer dedicated highly secure mobile devices which can do everything an in-store POS system can but in a handheld form. This allows your representatives to go anywhere and make sales wherever they may be. It can even enable service reps to directly place orders while working with a customer. Mobile EPOS systems are also perfect for trade shows, fairs, and pop-up stores. Direct Access To Your CRM EPOS systems don’t merely process payments – they can be connected directly to your Customer Relationship Management system or other customer databases. Staff processing sales can see all relevant information on the shopper, which gives them extra intelligence for offering relevant up sales and other services. This can also speed up the checkout process when nearly all needed information is already available at the salesperson’s fingertips. Accepting A Wider Variety Of Payments The number of payment methods a person might want to use has skyrocketed in the past decade. Consumers have come to expect numerous types of electronic payment systems such as mobile wallets, contactless (NFC) payments, not to mention Buy Now, Pay Later ( BNPL) and cryptocurrencies. Which payment types you choose to accept will depend on your needs, but broadly speaking, accepting more types of payments will benefit both you and your customers by offering choice and convenience. Ease Of Use Fortunately, all these new features don’t make current EPOS systems overly difficult to use. Advances in user interfaces have enabled highly robust retail EPOS devices which are also easy and intuitive to use. This reduces training costs, as well as speeding up checkouts – another way to improve your CX.

Is It Time to Update Your Retail POS System?
If you’re in retail, you undoubtedly have some form of retail POS system in place, with software running your various points-of-sales which are probably linked together in some way. However, there have been big advances in POS software in the past decade – Big advances in both cloud computing and “smart” processing systems that allow modern retail POS systems to go far beyond the terminals and database-style number-crunching typical in older POS software.
What is Mobile Point of Sale? Your Guide to MPOS Systems
These days, you’d be hard-pressed to find a simple cash register being used to ring up sales at any retail establishment. Technology is advancing at an impressive rate, and the impact is not lost in the retail arena. In a connected world, where omnichannel is key, digitally connected systems are in fact indispensable. These software systems can provide retailers with a host of different features and benefits to assist and empower them do everything from process sales (POS, MPOS) to enhancing customer relationships (ERP software). However, it’s important to understand why mobile point of sale systems are so important for the retail sector, as well as some of the advantages they can provide. That’s why the team from Eurostop has gathered an in-depth guide for you here about the uses and benefits of MPOS software. What Exactly is a Mobile Point of Sale System? Before diving into the benefits and other details of mobile point of sale systems, it’s important to have a clear understanding of precisely what they are and how they work. Unlike traditional POS systems that store customer data and take transactions at a fixed till point, MPOS systems are completely mobile. This enables retailers the freedom to get out from behind the cash desk and help customers from anywhere on the shop floor, or even outside a brick and mortar store, while still having all the features of a traditional POS system at their fingertips. Mobile POS systems often consist of mobile devices such as tablets, handheld units or smartphones that take the place of traditional cash registers or point of sale systems. They can also come equipped with add-ons, such as card readers, chip scanners, receipt printers, and other components. In terms of software, the MPOS system links all of these components together, using innovative cloud technology that helps you to track sales better, help customers, and provide any other necessary information to complete sales from any location, as long as there’s a wireless connection. Top 5 Factors to Review When Choosing a Mobile POS System If you’re considering investing in a mobile POS system, there are some important things to make note of, such as: Support for Mobile Payments: These days, many transactions are processed utlising customer smartphones with mobile wallets – the uptake of which has been accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, which saw shoppers and retailers curtailing the use of cash. So it’s important to make certain that any mobile POS solutions you implement are compatible and designed for a range of payment methods including mobile payments. This way, your customers can select to use options such as Google Wallet, Apple Pay, and other options, whatever is most convenient for them, which will enhance your brand experience. Most important, you don’t risk losing a potential sale. Support for EMV Chip Credit Cards: Credit cards are created with EMV chips, making swiping unnecessary. Contactless payments are also possible if the sales value is under the contactless limit, or the credit card is simply inserted into a card reader located under the MPOS device’s pin pad, making the process extremely simple. We recommend selecting a vendor that supports an all in one device which will processes integrated payments. This means that your store associates won’t have to carry a separate PDQ (credit and debit card) machine and neither will they rely on a reliable wireless connection, all of which makes the solution truly mobile. Support for Multiple Registers: For large retailers, you’ll need to ensure your mobile POS system can handle multiple registers and transactions simultaneously. Not only will this make the transaction process more efficient, but also offer your shoppers a choice of options and enable you to grow your business without the need to invest in new point of sale software/hardware as you scale up. Reliable Barcode Scanning: Every interaction at payment has the potential to impact the experience that your customer has with the brand. So a seamless checkout experience with accurate and robust barcode scanning is essential. Make sure that your solution uses technology that can scan barcodes reliably every time. Some solutions use phone cameras, or a separate scanning device, but these can be unreliable and increase the footprint of your mobile solution. Even better is an integrated scanner, which will enable you to add items to the sale quickly from the same device, with accurate pricing and promotion information. Top Benefits of Implementing a Mobile POS System There are many benefits to implementing a mobile POS system in your retail establishment. Some of them include: Increased Security: Mobile retail systems help provide your customers with increased security. This is because they all need to comply with PCI guidelines or EMV technology, which offers safer transactions than other alternatives. Reduced Wait Times: With MPOS solutions, you’ll no longer have to risk losing business and a potential sale due to the sight of long queues and increased wait times. As well as assistants behind the cash desk, you will have the flexibility to deploy additional mobile staff on demand to process transactions and assist with customer queries directly on the shop floor. This is especially useful for busy promotional periods or during peak hours. Added Floor Space: One of the biggest advantages of MPOS systems is that they don’t take up any floor space like traditional POS systems. This means more room on the floor to highlight your products. In addition, where social distancing has become mandatory during the COVID pandemic, mobile POS units can give you the added flexibility to make smart use of your space. Customer Data Collection: MPOS systems help you collect important data about your customers from purchase history and preferences to personal information like emails and phone numbers. This makes it easier to implement loyalty programmes and assists you in providing a personalised service when they walk through the door. Easy Reporting: Being able to analyse performance and react to changing footfall, environmental factors and promotional campaigns is paramount to a growing retail business.

Cash Registers vs. POS Systems: Which One is Right for You?
It doesn’t matter what kind of retail business you run, every fashion, footwear, jewellery, accessories, sportswear or department store needs a way to process transactions. However, if you’re wondering what type of transaction method is right for you, we’re here to provide some insight into the differences between a retail POS system or a cash register. Eurostop has helped many clients implement the most efficient transaction systems for them, so here are some tips for choosing between a cash register and a POS system. What Exactly is a Cash Register? Before diving into the details, it’s important to have a clear idea of each type of transaction method. Cash registers are used to ring up sales and often have a money drawer, and the capability to indicate the amount of each transaction and collect that data. More complex ones can also create financial records, add taxes, offer receipts, and more. They’re the cheapest transaction equipment, but for those who want functions like scanners and card readers, they’ll often have to pay extra. What is a POS System? POS systems offer many complex options, in addition to being able to do everything a cash register can. This type of system provides detailed transaction reporting and often has a touchscreen for easy use. Often, POS systems are composed of several components, including card readers,barcode scanners and a cash drawer. Although POS systems have been in use for decades, they’ve become the standard for retail establishments because they enable users to perform a wide range of functions, everything from tracking sales and customer information to stock control services. Additionally, many POS systems also make it possible to: Develop customer loyalty programs. Implement gift cards. Personalise service. Perform automated services. Collect data for business centralised insights and reporting. Implement marketing strategies. & More. Key Differences Between Cash Registers & POS Systems To choose the right solution for your retail establishment, you’ll need to take your needs and expectations into account. However, understanding the key differences between cash registers and POS systems is important. Some of the most notable ones include functionality, accuracy, , ease of use, reporting and integrations. In most cases, the return on investment will be invaluable. POS systems will provide more flexibility and functionality, as well as being easier to integrate with other retail channels. If change and migration is a worry, then make sure you select a reliable vendor will also be able to provide support and consultancy in your transition, which means that you can experience the benefits as quickly as possible and get the most out of the system.
