Point Of Sale Software Market Manufacturer Analysis, Sales, Latest Innovations, Incremental Revenue and Growth Rate (2028)
The global point of sale software market size was valued at USD 9.26 billion in 2020 and is expected to register a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.5% from 2021 to 2028.

Point Of Sale Software Industry Overview

The global point of sale software market size is expected to reach USD 19.56 billion by 2028, registering a CAGR of 9.5% over the forecast period, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Over the last few years, the restaurant industry has witnessed an uptick, largely favored by improving economy. However, restauranteurs are still facing challenges that could potentially hamper their performance as well as revenue. Moreover, the pandemic has hit the business substantially as countries went into lockdowns and travel & tourism came to a sudden halt. This, in turn, impacted the point of sale (POS) software business for the short term.

Point Of Sale Software Market Segmentation

Grand View Research has segmented the global point of sale software market on the basis of application, deployment mode, organization size, end-user, and region:

Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Fixed, Mobile.

  • POS software finds applications in both mobile and fixed POS terminals. The fixed segment accounted for the highest revenue share of more than 55.0% in 2020 owing to the increased preference among FSRs and QSRs. Fixed systems are considered to be more secure in terms of data privacy, hence a popular choice among several end-users. The mobile POS segment is projected to register the fastest CAGR of more than 12.0% over the forecast period.
  • The introduction of wireless technology evolved the payment method and business operations. The POS software integrated on tablets or smartphones provides a quick payment option via apps without the need to connect local networks with the system. 

Based on the Deployment Mode Insights, the market is segmented into Cloud, On-premise.

  • The on-premise deployment for POS software accounted for the largest revenue share of over 67% in 2020 primarily due to data security and greater control offered by this deployment model. The large enterprises contributed to the high demand for on-premise deployment of POS software as they need separate front-end and back-end solutions to limit access to critical financial and business information.
  • The cloud deployment POS software is expected to exhibit the highest CAGR of more than 11.0% from 2021 to 2028. This growth is credited to the high demand due to low-cost deployment on the cloud, which enables the adaption of changing business landscape. 
  • The cloud-based deployment is ideal for small- and medium-sized businesses that require timely software up-gradation to support expanded business requirements. The cloud deployment offers remote access, affordable subscription-based pricing, endpoint security, sales management, and an all-in-one solution for inventory management.

Based on the Organization Size Insights, the market is segmented into Large Enterprise, Small and Medium Enterprise (SME).

  • The large enterprise segment dominated the market in 2020 accounting for a revenue share of over 58%. The segment growth is credited to the high demand for customized POS software across large-scale retail stores, restaurants, and entertainment segments that need a system to manage their cash flows and business operations.
  • The customized software for a large enterprise helps manage an array of business operations while improving customer engagement. Rising demand for advanced features, such as employee management analytics, inventory tracking, sales monitoring, customer data management, and reporting, is expected to boost product adoption across various industries.
  • The market for the SME segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR over the forecast period. The growth is credited to the quick adoption of cloud-deployed mobile POS software solutions by SMEs due to their affordability & scalability and the need to improve business during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Based on the End-user Insights, the market is segmented into Restaurants, Hospitality, Healthcare, Retail, Warehouse, Entertainment, Others.

  • The retail segment emerged as the dominant end-user segment with a revenue share of 35.01% in 2020. The vast retail sector includes clothing, accessories, grocery, packaged product, electronics, and much more that require POS software as per the nature of the business function. The retail industry gradually shifted from brick-and-mortar stores to multi-channel (social media) and e-commerce retailing.
  • This shift in business channels augmented the need for additional features in POS software to manage both online and in-store sales. Businesses that installed POS software supporting both sales channels were able to manage operation and profit, while other businesses suffered during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • The product demand in the restaurant segment is poised to grow significantly at a CAGR of more than 9.0% over the forecast period. It is another most lucrative segment targeted by POS vendors. The online food delivery system has become popular among the younger generation and thus, the restaurants require new features in their POS software to track food delivery and take new orders and payments.
