Square Competitor? Cashier Live Launches POS App For iPhone
Summary
Cashier Live, a Chicago-based, bootstrapped startup providing Point of Sale (POS) systems to retailers, has just launched a new iPhone app that moves a bit into Square’s territory – at least that’s the company’s claim. The transaction fees for this service vary and are set by Mercury, which means that in some cases, it may be higher, lower, or on par with Square. “Something like the Linea Pro [scanner] looks expensive when compared with a free dongle, but it’s built for high volume retail stores and businesses who are more than willing to pay for something like that.” Greenhaw also notes that this case will be an alternative in the future. That said, the Cashier app itself has a simple interface, and ties into the inventory management system and associated barcode labeling its business customers use. It also provides a customer-tracking system where businesses can include name, birthdate and email address for use in receipts, running promotions and viewing sales history.
