For a low-cost, simple point of sale system, I recently started using USBSwiper. It's good for remote events where you need clean printed invoices, SKU tracking and fast (swipe-able) credit card transactions that seamlessly interface with your PayPal Payments Pro or PayFlow Pro account.

HALO Branded Solutions is in the business of selling Promotional Products to businesses from the very large to the very small. We are one of the larger companies in our industry. While the vast majority of our business is processed in house through our own systems, we participate in Trade-Shows all over the country to sell and promote our products with some of our biggest and best clients. We needed an easy and mobile platform in order to process these transactions. We needed something that was reasonably priced, easy to use, easy to transport, and would work sitting on a folding table in the middle of a banquet facility. But we wanted more than just a method of charging a credit card. We needed more information than that. We needed to be able to analyze what items were selling at which events, we need to be able to account for inventory, create records, invoices and reports to be presented internally and to our clients. The USBSwiper system has worked out great for us! The platform has a great balance of giving you all the necessary information while being very easy to use. The function which has been the most important to our company is the ability to export custom reports. This has been crucial in analysis, reconciliation, and reporting. The USBSwiper customer service and tech support has been excellent as well. Overall, the system works perfect for our needs and we have been extremely happy with the relationship in the short time we’ve had the system. In just a few months, we processed nearly 10,000 transactions through the 4 complete USBSwiper systems (Swipers, Software, Printers and Bar-Code Scanners) at events in LA, Atlanta, Orlando, Birmingham, Tempe, Salt Lake City, Denver and Boston. We will have several more to come and will be using the USBSwiper system at all of them.

We purchased the USBSwiper software and card swiper for our book, CD, DVD and misc sales at our Western Washington State fair last year and it worked perfectly for us. We continue to use it in our ministry bookstore and when we set up our portable bookstore on special occasions.
