Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) form the backbone of Kenya's economy, contributing significantly to its GDP. However, many SME owners grapple with manual record-keeping processes that hamper their efficiency and growth potential. This is where Point of Sale (POS) systems come into play, offering a modern, streamlined solution.
A POS system is an electronic device or software application used to process sales transactions and manage inventory in real-time. Unlike traditional cash registers, POS systems provide a central hub for managing various business operations such as sales, customer data, inventory management, and financial reporting.
According to a 2021 report by Finclusion Kenya, digital payments have been on the rise in Kenya, with POS terminals accounting for 53% of total non-cash transactions. This trend underscores the growing acceptance and utility of POS systems among SMEs.
