3 Technologies Leveling the Playing Field for Small Retailers

While businesses large and small realize the need to update their payment systems, small businesses have an advantage over larger retailers when it comes to what Gartner calls "Advanced Selling Systems" or in-store digitization. Larger retailers are deeply invested in their POS systems, but smaller retailers can now easily deploy mobile POS via tablets and smartphones with ZingCheckout, Intuit, Revel Systems, Square and other vendors. Square, for instance, is targeting small businesses with its latest product, Square: Business in a Box, which offers an easy and low-cost solution for mobile POS.
