How to Get a Free Web Based Point of Sale

A great way to save money early on as a small business is to choose a free web based point of sale to work with.

A number of solutions have came about in the market recently. This article will highlight one of the solutions, the benefits of choosing it, and how to get started.

This web-based Point of Sale has a free version that you can use as long as you like. It runs on PCs, Macs, iPads, and Smartphones. You can take payments, manage inventory and run reports.

When you're on the homepage of zingcheckout.com click the green 'Try Us Out Instantly!' button and a signup form will appear. Complete that successfully and they will send you an e-mail with your login information. No credit card needed!

After taking a bit of time to move about your new POS, you should add some products. You can track inventory, sales, and print / email out nice receipts referencing products sold, so you'll want to do that early.

To add products you go to the Inventory -> Products / Categories section. You can add options and attributes if you want as well. It's a little more advanced, but a nice feature! Go to the Inventory -> Options / Attributes section to do that.

You should be all ready now! Be sure to check out the other cool features you get as well. The social listing you get (it's free too) will help connect with customers on social networks. It can help drive traffic to your online store, Yelp, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
