When You Can Have Free POS Software for Life?

​Receive Unlimited Software Updates, Upgrades, and Technical Support
with Aldelo Express POS

2-minute read ---

In the current point of sale market, a common sales scheme is enticing new customers with “free POS hardware.” But in addition to tying up the actual hardware costs into credit card processing rates, system fees, or add-on module fees, these providers typically limit their POS system to a specified number of terminals, forcing merchants to pay for the additional stations they need to grow their business.

​Some might call this a proper business investment. Were these providers the only sellers in the market, that would be true. But with Aldelo Express POS, merchants obtain a modern cloud point of sale system with zero add-on or hardware costs, and even receive an unlimited number of POS software licenses, updates, and software upgrades over the life of their restaurant.
