In Canada, this is especially important as our nation is becoming known as a “cashless society”.

This is important, not just because, it helps for your store to maintain its sleek and professional look, but the VX 820 DUET’s design is one that makes it very easy for customers to use. It’s large, bright-coloured touch screen display and comfortable-to-hold unit makes payment processing incredibly easy.

Using the VX 820 DUET as a point-of-sale terminal speeds things up, thanks to its expansive memory.
