Each cashless register is equipped with a standard touch-screen for the cashier, while the customer has their own screen that details every step of the payment process. This also means that customers can tap, dip or swipe without having to share a screen.<\/p>\n<p>And unlike Square\u2019s proprietary dongle, Square Register, with its intelligent POS software, targets larger businesses that need more intelligent functionality to manage things like inventory, customer outreach, employee accounts and permissions, purchase orders, vendor lists, timecard data and projected profit reporting.<\/p>\n<p>The same <a href=\"https:\/\/squareup.com\/news\/introducing-square-register\">press release<\/a> quotes Jesse Dorogusker, head of hardware at Square, as saying \u201cwe built Square Register based on years of insight from working with sellers about what they need on their countertop as their business grows.
