Business POS: how to choose the right payment solution
A business POS must handle more than a card tap: companies need multi-site control, accounting exports, APIs and predictable settlement. Italian businesses must accept electronic payments; refusing a card can mean a €30 penalty plus 4% of the refused amount. RoxPay offers €0.15 + 0.35%-0.85% IC++ with no fixed monthly fee.

What a company POS must provide
Assess acquiring and settlement, multi-site visibility, transaction-level reconciliation and integrations with ERP, e-commerce and fiscal systems. Fixed, portable, Android Smart POS and SoftPOS terminals can share one acquiring contract.
Bank POS or independent gateway?
Bank POS contracts often bundle an opaque rate with a terminal fee and tie settlement to one bank. An independent gateway such as RoxPay supports any SEPA IBAN, consolidated reporting and transparent IC++ pricing across online and physical channels.
