Poynt POS
Smart terminal with dual screens - one for you, one for your customer. Built-in apps and developer-friendly platform for custom solutions.
Why Choose Poynt POS?
Poynt Smart Terminal pioneered the dual-screen payment device, providing a merchant-facing display for transaction management and a customer-facing display for order verification, digital signatures, and engagement. It's a smart terminal that thinks about both sides of the counter.
Everything You Need to Know About Poynt POS
Poynt emerged with a bold vision: reinvent the payment terminal for the smartphone era. The result was the Poynt Smart Terminal, a dual-screen Android device that brought app-based flexibility and customer engagement capabilities to payment processing.
The dual-screen design serves distinct purposes. The merchant-facing screen runs the full Poynt operating system with apps, transaction management, and business tools. The customer-facing screen handles payment interactions—amount display, card insertion prompts, signature capture, and increasingly, marketing content and loyalty enrollment.
Built on Android, Poynt opened its platform to developers in a way traditional terminal manufacturers hadn't. The result is an ecosystem of Poynt apps covering everything from inventory management to restaurant ordering to appointment scheduling. Businesses can customize their Poynt experience by installing apps that match their specific needs.
Poynt's developer-friendly approach also means custom solutions are possible. If your business has unique requirements, developers can build Poynt apps tailored exactly to your workflow. This extensibility makes Poynt particularly attractive for businesses with specialized needs.

Poynt POS FAQs
What can the customer-facing screen do?
The customer screen shows transaction amounts, prompts for card insertion/tap, captures signatures, and can display marketing content, loyalty enrollment prompts, and survey questions. It transforms a passive payment moment into an engagement opportunity.
Is Poynt a full POS system or just a terminal?
Poynt can be both. Out of the box, it handles payment processing with basic transaction management. With apps from the marketplace—or custom development—it can become a full point of sale system with inventory, ordering, and business management.
Who owns Poynt now?
Poynt was acquired by GoDaddy in 2021 to power their commerce solutions. The Poynt terminal continues to be supported and developed, with additional integrations into GoDaddy's small business ecosystem.
