Windward's Mobile POS solution works perfect when there isn't a checkout counter in sight
Mobile Point of Sale
With mobile point of sale systems, retailers and service companies are helping employees become more productive while lowering labor costs. And because transactions are carried out electronically, instead of written manually, accuracy is increased.
A New Way of Selling
We all realize the overwhelming influence mobile technology is having on our lives. The continued impact of wireless connections has altered the way we shop and sell.
Some retailers are replacing centralized checkouts and letting clerks use tablets and portable computers to complete transactions. Representatives answer customer questions, check stock and finalize sales with handheld devices. Mobile POS solutions are useful in pretty much any field.
Boost Productivity

Customer Service Anywhere
No matter where your customers are in the store, mobile POS solutions allow them to receive fast, informative service on the spot. By arming your employees with handheld checkout devices, they’ll expedite the purchasing process.
For service-based businesses, your office might be someone else’s living room. For instance, a carpet cleaning company can use mobile POS software out in the field to complete transactions onsite, offer other services and check account information.
Indoor / Outdoor Retail Environments
Windward's mobile POS solutions works outside of the store too. You can also bring them with you outside, or even on the road. They’re ideal for unique applications such as:
- Garden centers
- Field service workers
- Trade shows
- Stadiums (food sales, 50/50 tickets etc.)
- Outdoor sales environments
Line Busting
Line busting is a term that describes how retailers are using mobile POS solutions to break up the lines that form at checkout counters. If customers are forced to wait too long in a queue, they might become impatient and walk out before completing the transaction. By equipping employees with handheld POS devices, they can carry out transactions anywhere in the store.
Not only can you conduct sales anywhere, you can create error-free, detailed receipts on the spot. If a customer is looking for a stock check or needs additional product information, the employee can access it with the handheld device.
