Pay Pal users want free Pos software, while PayPal integrates into some of the best Pos systems. After examining Zettle, it is simple for the solo preneur.
Zettle is a well-known mobile Pos system, It now replaces Pay Pal. Pay Pal provides and complete Pos system.

My experience with PayPal has been amazing they have really helped me build my business. I truly can not say enough good about this company.
Ease of use - simple fast and really super software in all the years that I have been using PayPal I have never had any problem with their software at all..
I wish that PayPal would offer a full POS system right now you need to utilize one of their partners for a POS system

Overall, it's a good, simple POS software. Not going to be your main go-to POS app but does the job.
The simplicity of it all and that it links right to our paypal account. They also send you a free card scanner!
You have to be connected to an internet signal to use it. We've been in a spot where service is weak and the app lags or crashes.

I was looking for a POS solution for trade events and PayPals offering for POS was far more affordable than what I could get from a bank. If you couple the app with the PayPal Here card reader, it's easily the most affordable and useful POS solution available.
The PayPal Here app allows you to take secure card payments at trade shows and stalls. The fees for transactions are low.
When I first applied for PayPal Here it was unclear if everything was set up or not yet, and the app didn't work at all to let me sign in. I contacted support and it turns out their approval takes a few days sometimes, but I didn't get an email letting me know that approval was pending.

Easy to add new products and rearrange the order. Great for simple POS and helpful for inventory tracking.
Doing returns from a previous day's sale is not as straightforward as I'd like.

I strongly recommend this software to anyone who wish to start mobile business and transact the money overseas
Paypal here allows you to transact money easily.It's well secured and even a POS machine can be connected with this.
Paypal Here is very good app but it isn't supported in some countries and some regions due to local government rules.

Overall, this was a great POS for our company to start with at mobile markets. It was simple and straightforward and I found the customer support to be great! If you need/want a simple POS to get you started, give it a try!
This was an easy way to get started with a POS. It was free and simple to setup. I found it very simple to change the products around, as well as prices. The app is simple to install across different devices and platforms and it works just as well on my android as it does on my staff's iPhone. Adding products to the shopping cart and checking out is a breeze. Also, it is simple to change tax rates...
There isn't much style to the app. This doesn't really matter, but once our company was established and we started using a different POS in our store, this was only used as a backup and my staff actually complained that there weren't pictures of the products.

The integrated Pos app is very useful and akin to carrying a mobile register. Rates are competitive compared to other companies.
Customer support is slow, presumably this improves if you are willing to pay extra for the premium option.

It’s a great product, the ease of a mobile card reader that can link with the POS is really great for a small business that is mobile and not in a permanent residence
I really like that you can design your own POS to use anywhere and can add images to make it easy to use
It was a little fiddly to create the POS at first but now I’m more familiar with the process it’s so easy

I can process transactions without the need to transport my entire POS system (cash drawer, tablet, card reader etc.).
Its ease of use with smartphones. I use it with my iPhone and it works very well. You can just swipe the card and then hand phone to customer in order to sign.
Sometimes updates to iOs dont work well with the app and it can have a lot of problems. I usually wait prior to updating.

Overall my experience with PayPal Here is great and would highly recommend.
I feel the POS System is the best feature and how easy it is to process credit card payments. Even the reporting.
While the reporting is very easy to access and understand I feel it's lacking customization to ones business.

Overall it was so-so. I used a few different services and settled on another but did enjoy using Paypal.
I thought that Paypal was a great option for my POS needs - some customers had problems connecting to use it properly and that slowed down some transactions but overall it is a great service.
My customer response was not as great compared to other POS services but the back-end worked great for me and my needs.

Very easy, time saving, and affordable if you don’t want to have a traditional POS for credit card processing.
This is so easy to use, and no contract required.
I don’t really have any cons. At least I haven’t found any yet.

Clean and simple. Gets the job done and is astoundingly simple and intuitive to use.
I love the ease of use the ability to make simple pos transactions. Makes everything simple and really does all the work for you.
The app sometimes crashes and seems to crash at the busiest times or when we need it most. But when it’s working it’s working well.

PayPal Here is an affordable POS system that puts our customer's minds at ease because they recognize and trust the brand.
It is very helpful to be able to accept payments via credit cards since so many people do not carry cash anymore and accepting checks can be risky. This app allows me to accept payments just like a bigger business and offer convenience to my customers. Sales tracking is a great perk as well.
There is a lot of clicking to get everything rang up and charged if you sell a large variety of items.

It was really easy to set up and use. It's the most streamlined mobile pos I've seen. And the money is transferred to my bank quickly.
The usage fee seems a little high. So far that's really the only thing.

PayPal Zettle is a POS system that accepts payments, manages inventory, tracks sales, and generates reports. PayPal Here is replaced. A version of Zettle has been available in Europe since 2011. Zettle offers low-cost POS functionality with a modest commitment. The system can be expanded with hardware, but it doesn't offer plan upgrades or add-on services like Square POS's customer loyalty and email marketing programs.
Strong fundamentals. Non-monthly fees. Non-binding. Low start-up prices. User Friendly.
No add-ons. Integration issues. PayPal, not your bank, receives the funds.

Firstly, is really great that you dont need to sign any contract, you just buy your equipment and start receiving payments and secondly, it is possible to integrate with other POS.
It is quite expensive, they have a 2.75% of fee for payment and that is higher than other POS that normally go for 1.75%. And Paypal Here doesn't have very functionality aside from receiving payments, it can't manage your items and the reports are really dissaponting. So, if you are looking for something else than just a way to receiving payment, probably keep looking.

We do a lot of small craft fair / convention stuff and having more options for payments means that people are more likely to feel comfortable paying you when they can use an option they trust. So it is no bother for us to have more than one gateway to accept payment. That being said if you have one system that controls your inventory and you have a large inventory it may not be as easy for you to sync everything to several gateways. Also it would be nice if PayPal offered teh bottom of their barrel swiper for free the way some others do.
Here is an extra app from PayPal that takes up no room on your device, connects to your PayPal account and gives you more options for how to get paid, which makes more clients comfortable. They have several card readers that are really affordable and there are no extra hoops to jump through just log in to your PayPal account and you have a tiny POS.
The only con here for me is that you have to pay for a card reader. Other small POS gateways will send you one for free but Paypal will cost you.

I now have more options other than having clients sending funds via paypal, they can simply use their cards and has turned my phone into a POS.
It's as easy as using PayPay. The software is very intuitive and clean looking, makes taking payments a real breeze! i love how I can take the small terminal anywhere I go and my clients can swipe, tap or use their pins with their credit card.
only con would be customer service. if there is an issue with payment or returning funds it can take up to 5 business days before you get an email back from with a status update.

I trust Paypal Here app more than I trust other similar POS applications for your mobile device. As a customer I feel way more confident that my information is secure, and will not be easily accessible to hackers this day in age.
I've tried to contact customer service one time, and that was the only time. This is something you will not enjoy. Once you finally get a representative, their help is very limited.

So far, so good. Ask me again when I have an issue.
The fact that it's free is a huge factor in choosing it. Most companies charge for a pos machine or charge ridiculous processing fees for manually entering credit cards. Also, the debit card that gives you instant access to your funds is a nice feature.
NO CASH DEPOSITS. people still use cash, a lot. So since there are no atms or branch's your only option is to go to Walmart and pay to add money.
