Whether you’re building a small mom-and-pop shop or a global business, every entrepreneur will agree that you need the right tool for the right job. Put another way, if your only tool at hand is a hammer, everything around you starts to look like a nail.

This is especially true for your payment system. In the modern era, an old-school terminal that was designed for a 20th-century customer won’t help you provide remarkable customer service. You need a solution that’s connected, secure, and able to grow with your business.

The Poynt App Ecosystem

Small business owners have big dreams, but not always the resources to build the tools they need from scratch. A POS platform with a comprehensive assortment of apps gives them access to inventory management, accounting, productivity enhancement, and loyalty programs.

The following is a small taste of how Poynt’s App Center can increase efficiencies and enhance customer retention.

Unlock Merchant Superpowers

When a customer has a fast and easy experience paying for your product or service, you’ve made a connection that will encourage them to come back and become loyal patrons.

A connected POS solution makes that far more likely to happen. It provides an open operating system that can power any smart payment terminal worldwide, processes all current (and future) payment methods, and allows you to customize the platform to support your unique business needs.

There will always be new markets to serve, new products and services to provide, and new opportunities for growth. A majority of small business owners use an average of four apps to meet these goals. Poynt’s App Center can mark the difference between a payment solution that maintains the status quo and one that gives you a competitive advantage.
