Best Reading of the Day - Entry 0094 mPOS Overview

The folks over on PYMTS.com have a very good read on the current state of Point of Sale (POS) systems using mobile devices.  This is an in depth report that shouldn't be missed if you are interested in mobile, retail, and technology.

Here is a snippet from that piece:

This monthly report is designed to organize the mobile point-of-sale ecosystem, one that has emerged over the past several years as smartphones and tablets delivered new payment-acceptance capabilities for all merchant categories. This report provides an initial overview of those players that have entered this space, including a description of their capabilities, solution features and functions, and customer and go-to-market priorities. This report organizes the ecosystem into two broad categories: those merchant-facing organizations that supply devices to merchants directly, and those that “power” those players and supply them with the mPOS hardware, software, tools and services that help merchant-facing organizations meet their customer needs.

Happy Reading,
