The Benefits of Touch Screen POS for Retailers

Reduce Training Expenses

Touch Screen POS systems are far easier to learn than traditional keyboard based POS. Everyday retail functions like selecting tenders, editing and voiding line items, and capturing customer demographic information are made intuitive by virtue of the touch screen - and the right Touch Screen POS software. Many retailers, especially those in the service sectors, sell items that cannot be easily bar coded. Touch systems make it easy to ring up these items and, of course, still allow the use of all standard bar code technologies. Studies show reductions in training time in excess of 50% can be expected. Enhanced POS functions can be added with the knowledge that employees will be able to utilize them quickly and easily.

Improve Customer Service

If your customers have to wait for your employees to figure out how to use the store's POS system, you are going to lose customers. Touch Screen POS systems eliminate this embarrassing, and all too common, problem. Today's retailers need to learn as much as possible about their customers needs and buying habits. Capturing customer information is a snap with Touch Screen POS systems.

Reduce Transaction Times

Studies show Touch Screen POS systems process transactions up to 60% faster than traditional keyboard POS systems. One InfoTouch ' customer has clocked in with a transaction rate of over 60 per hour per register, over 20,000 per day - with volunteers.

Increase Reliability

Restaurants, which have relied on Touch Screen POS systems for years, can testify to just how durable Touch Screen POS systems are. Spill a Coke on a keyboard and you probably need to buy another keyboard. All it takes is some Windex and a paper towel to recover from a spill on a touch screen. The top touch screen manufacturers are now offering 5 year warranties, an outstanding indication of the great performance you can expect from Touch Screen POS systems.

Decrease cost to change POS layout

In a Touch Screen POS system, the layout of the color coded "keys" is stored in files on your hard drive. Changes to the layout can be accomplished during the nightly poll of store data. The time and expense of changing hardware key caps is eliminated.
