Retail payment solution FAQs
-
What’s the difference between a cash register and a POS system?
A lot, but the short answer is: A cash register is useful for processing transactions, while a point of sale solution can serve as an entire retail business management system, with reporting, inventory, purchasing, customer and employee management tools all baked in. Credit card processing is just one tiny piece of its robust functionality, and the best POS systems are all-in-one solutions that help you manage all of your retail operations.

I have multiple store locations — can I use Genius?
Genius is designed and built as multi-location retail management software solutions. We know a store-by-store view of inventory limits your ability to sell, and inability to transfer means unbalanced stock and missed opportunities. Our tools help you optimize your inventory by making it available to your customers wherever and however they choose to shop with you.
