Web Cashier is a basic Point of Sale (POS) system to charge items to PaperCut accounts and deposit funds into users' accounts. It is a standard product feature.
It can be used in a variety of ways, for example:
- A teacher assistant in the print room can use it to charge students for various items such as document binding, laminating, bulk printing, or library fees instead of handing cash.
- Office staff can accept payments from users and credit their balance using the simplified Web Cashier interface.
