The POS terminals market is poised for robust growth during this period, driven by the advantages of digitalization, including traceability, security, and tractability. Advancements in internet connectivity, particularly the adoption of 5G, are expected to accelerate the expansion of POS terminals, with mobile POS terminals predicted to witness rapid growth in the coming years. Manufacturers are gaining a competitive edge by integrating POS systems with inventory management, merchandising, marketing, and customer relationship management, all propelled by the widespread adoption of digital payments.
