POS Systems for Australian Retail, Hospitality & Small Business
POS Plaza supplies point-of-sale hardware to businesses across Australia — from single-register cafés and boutique retailers to multi-terminal restaurants and franchises. Our POS systems range from compact Android touch terminals under $500 to full commercial all-in-one units from brands including iMin, HP, Posiflex, Element, and Nexa. All stock is Australian-held with same-day dispatch available from Sydney.
What type of POS system do you need?
All-in-One POS Terminals combine the touchscreen, computer, and often a customer-facing display into a single unit. These are ideal for cafés, restaurants, and retailers who want a clean counter setup. Models like the iMin D4-504 include a built-in 80mm receipt printer and a 10.1" customer display, removing the need for separate peripherals.
POS Touchscreen Terminals (standalone) are Windows-based computers with a touchscreen monitor. They pair with a separate receipt printer, cash drawer, and barcode scanner. This modular approach suits businesses that want to upgrade components independently or already own peripheral hardware.
Touch Monitors are displays only — no internal computer. They connect to an existing PC or mini-PC and are popular for upgrade projects or secondary screens (e.g., a customer-facing display in a checkout line).
Which POS software is compatible?
Our Windows-based terminals are compatible with virtually all Australian POS software including Square, Shopify POS, Lightspeed, Vend (Lightspeed Retail), Kounta, TouchBistro, RetailExpress, MYOB, and Xero. Android terminals (iMin series) are compatible with Android POS apps including Square, Eats365, and most cloud-based hospitality platforms. If you're unsure about compatibility with your software, contact us — we can confirm before you order.
What POS system is best for a café or coffee shop?
For a café or coffee shop, an all-in-one Android terminal (such as the iMin D4-504 or iMin Falcon 2) is a popular choice — compact, fast to boot, and easy to clean. Pair it with a cloud-based hospitality app like Square or Kounta and a separate EFTPOS terminal from your bank or payment provider. If you need a kitchen printer for food orders, we stock compatible kitchen thermal printers that integrate with most hospitality POS apps.
What POS system is best for retail in Australia?
For retail, a Windows-based touchscreen terminal paired with a barcode scanner, thermal receipt printer, and cash drawer is the standard configuration. Windows terminals give you access to the widest range of retail software (Lightspeed Retail, Vend, RetailExpress) and allow detailed inventory management. Budget around $800–$2,500 for a complete retail POS hardware kit depending on the terminal model and peripherals.
How much does a POS system cost in Australia?
- Entry-level Android terminal: $500–$900 (AUD inc. GST)
- Mid-range Windows touchscreen terminal: $900–$1,800
- Commercial all-in-one (HP Engage, Posiflex): $1,800–$3,500+
- Touch monitor (display only): $300–$800
These prices cover the terminal hardware only and were accurate at the time of writing — please check the individual product page for current pricing, as prices are subject to change without notice. A complete POS station (terminal + receipt printer + cash drawer + barcode scanner) typically costs between $1,200 and $4,000 depending on the tier.
Do I need a separate receipt printer and cash drawer?
It depends on the terminal. All-in-one units like the iMin D4-504 have a built-in printer. Standalone touchscreen terminals and touch monitors require a separate receipt printer and cash drawer. POS Plaza sells both — and can advise on which receipt printers are confirmed compatible with your terminal and POS software.
