Source: https://support.storeconnect.com/articles/pos-checkout-payments · Last modified 21 August 2026

The point of sale register checkout is where the POS operator takes payment from customers for sales. Depending on your setup, a number of different payment methods may be accepted. You can also watch a video demo below.

## Available payment methods

You can only take payment using the methods that have already been set up. For a retail business, this might be cash and credit card. For other businesses (say where customers are also businesses) they might also accept checks (cheques) or accept account payments.
