Fit the POS to your workflow.

Start a POS review

Start with how service runs across your team and locations, from first order to day close.

  • Define where service starts and who opens the order.

    Owner: Your team owns the service entry point and staff role.

    Recovery: Keep a manual intake path and name who resolves the block.

  • Decide who can adjust, split, cancel or transfer an order.

    Owner: Your team sets permissions; OmniPay helps define the workflow.

    Recovery: Keep the original order visible and name the approver.

  • Define where payment is accepted and which status returns to the order.

    Owner: The provider owns the transaction; your team owns the order decision.

    Recovery: Treat an unknown return as unresolved until its status is confirmed.

  • Name who checks totals and hands the day’s record to accounting.

    Owner: Your team owns close and reconciliation.

    Recovery: Separate exceptions from confirmed totals and assign follow-up.

POS options

Start with the workflow, then choose hardware.

Order flow, checkout style, inventory, accounting, and training shape the right POS. OmniPay maps those pieces before recommending a processor or hardware path.
