What is the Point of Sale?

The Point of Sale (POS) is CloudFFL's built-in cash register. It turns any computer, tablet, or touchscreen into a checkout station where your counter staff can ring up sales, take payments, and print receipts — just like a traditional register, but smarter.

What the POS Does

• Ring up sales — Add products by clicking, scanning a barcode, or searching by name
• Take payments — Accept cash, credit/debit cards, or split between multiple methods
• Print receipts — Paper receipts print automatically, or email them to the customer
• Track everything — Every transaction is recorded with the date, time, items, and payment method

Who Uses the POS

The POS is designed for your counter staff and cashiers — the people ringing up customers face-to-face at the shop. You do not need to be a computer expert to use it. If you can use a cash register, you can use the POS.

How It Fits with the Rest of CloudFFL

The POS is not a standalone system. It connects to everything else in CloudFFL:

• Inventory — When you sell a Glock 19 at the counter, the stock count goes down automatically. No manual adjustments needed.
• Customer records — If you assign a customer to a POS sale, that transaction shows up in their history.
• Accounting — Every POS session posts its totals to your books when you close it out.
• FastBound — Firearm sales at the POS can be linked to your compliance records.
