Compare POS System Prices for 2023
Updated as of March, 2023
How much do POS systems cost?
POS system prices will vary depending on your business requirements and your industry (i.e., bar, restaurant, small business, retail shop, or salon). Not all POS companies will show their prices online, and that’s because the costs will depend significantly on what you need for your business, for instance, the number of terminals, industry requirements, features, hardware, etc. The best way to receive and compare POS system prices is by getting multiple quotes from several vendors.
You can get a cash register free from a company like Harbortouch (if you process payments with them) all the way up to $2,000+ per terminal if you purchase a more advanced point of sale system. You can also go the SaaS (Software as a Service) route with a cloud-based system and pay a monthly fee, around $79 per month, with some hardware costs.

POS System Pricing Guide Table
Please take this pricing table with a grain of salt. By no means is this guide an exhaustive pricing summary and is designed to give you an idea of costs. Keep in mind there can be additional costs associated with installation, cabling, training, etc. With the high-end pricing on the pricing table, we’re talking about systems like Aloha, Micros, Microsoft, IBM, etc. There are many other options available to save you money.
| Industry | High-End Cost | SaaS Pricing Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Restaurant | $2,500 Per Terminal | $1,499 Hardware + $69/mo (Example TouchBistro) |
| Bar | $2,500 Per Terminal | Free Hardware + $39/mo (Example Harbortouch Bar and Restaurant) |
| Retail | $3,000 Per Station | $1,499 Hardware + $99/mo (Example ShopKeep) |
| Retail with Ecom | $3,000 Per Station | $1,000 Hardware + $79/mo (Example Shopify) |
| Small Business | $1,000 Per Terminal | $799 Hardware + $60/mo (Example Square) |
| Small Business | $1,000 Per Terminal | Free Hardware + $29/mo (Example Harbortouch Echo) |
As you can see, pricing for POS systems can start as cheap as $29 per month for a Harbortouch Echo POS system all the way up to thousands per terminal. Again, it depends on what features and functions you need and if you prefer to work with a local provider or a big national brand.
