As the global retail industry enters a strong digital transformation era, POS (Point of Sale) machines are no longer just payment devices but have become comprehensive management hubs for store operations. 2025 promises to be a boom for new-generation touch POS machines, integrating many modern features to meet the fast, accurate, and efficient operational needs of all retail scales, especially supermarkets, convenience store chains, and shopping malls.
1. Strong Digitalization Trend in Retail Payment Systems
Changing consumer habits post-pandemic have driven global retailers to heavily invest in smart POS devices. Customers now expect fast, contactless payment processes, which can be done via QR codes, chip cards, e-wallets, or smartphones.
This means that touch POS machines not only handle payment functions but also integrate many digital tools such as:
-
Real-time inventory management and sales reporting.
-
Integration of customer data, loyalty programs.
-
Connection to ERP systems or store chain management software.
According to a report by Retail Technology Review (UK, 2024), over 73% of supermarket chains in Europe have switched to using Android-based touch POS systems, allowing for interface customization, flexible network connectivity, and rapid software updates.
2. Touch Devices – The Technological Core at the Checkout Counter
Touch POS machines are completely replacing older models with physical keyboards. With multi-touch capacitive screens, new-generation POS devices allow staff to operate as smoothly as on a smartphone, minimizing data entry errors.
Specifically, current devices often feature:
-
Dual screens: one for staff, one for customers to view bills, QR payment codes, and promotional advertisements.
-
Powerful configuration: multi-core CPU, large RAM, support for receipt printing, barcode scanning, RFID card reading.
-
Minimalist, modern design suitable for any checkout counter space, from convenience stores to high-end supermarkets.
Following the new trend, All-in-One POS devices are gaining popularity – integrating printers, barcode readers, and Android or Windows operating systems. This helps businesses save costs, simplify maintenance, and synchronize data.
3. Supermarket Management Solutions Integrated with Smart POS
In 2025, the focus for retailers is not just payment speed, but also the ability to manage data across the entire system. Modern POS allows for:
-
Direct connection to inventory, automatically deducting stock upon product sale.
-
Data synchronization between multiple branches, helping management track real-time sales.
-
Analysis of purchasing behavior, suggesting products or promotions tailored to specific customer groups.
An effective POS system helps retailers reduce personnel costs, minimize inventory loss, optimize cash flow, and enhance customer experience.
In the Vietnamese market, many supermarkets and store chains such as Vinmart, GS25, Bách Hóa Xanh have transitioned to POS solutions integrated with central management software, allowing for remote monitoring and access to report data via phone or web.
5. Market Forecast and Development Trends 2025–2030
According to analysis from the Global POS Report 2025, the global POS device market is projected to reach 136 billion USD by 2030, growing at an average of 10.5% per year. Among these, the Asia-Pacific region (including Vietnam) is one of the fastest-growing markets due to rapid urbanization and the expansion of modern retail systems.
Key trends include:
-
POS combined with AI and Big Data analytics to predict customer demand.
-
Integration of facial recognition and contactless payment.
-
IoT connectivity between POS, security cameras, electronic gates, and warehouses to create a seamless operational chain.
