MPOS

mPOS is a small & simplified version of your POS

With a size similar to a phone, you can carry it around

to take orders & payments at the tables directly

Ideal for big venues offering Dine In

If you are using mPOS as your main Device (no POS):

You can set it up on a laptop following the steps below


Create New Device Profile

Device Profiles are Profiles applied to your Device (here MPOS):
