The real difference: online-first vs shop-floor-first

Shopify POS usually gets picked as part of a bigger commerce setup — online store, product catalogue, customers, and then in-store selling.

EzyCarto is built to make the physical store quicker: Scan-Pay-Go, self-checkout or cashier mode, and a cart handoff that reduces rescanning.

Cart handoff (in simple terms)

A shopper builds their basket on their phone, then hands it to a kiosk or cashier by scanning a QR. The idea is simple: less time rescanning, shorter queues, and a smoother checkout.

Questions people ask

Is it “EPOS” or “POS” in the UK?

Most UK retailers say EPOS. A lot of providers market as POS. People search both — the product you need is what matters.

Can Shopify POS work offline?

Some offline workflows exist, but card payments typically need an internet connection. If offline is a deal-breaker, check the latest guidance before committing.

Which is better for “scan and pay”?

If you want Scan-Pay-Go and phone-to-checkout handoff as the main experience, EzyCarto is built around it.
