With Breadcrumb POS v.1.2, hair and nail salons, spas, studios, wine bars, cafes and retail establishments now have their own point-of-sale experience designed for their unique merchant environments. You can visit breadcrumb.groupon.com.

“Groupon has worked with several hundred thousand local businesses around the world and through these relationships they’ve told us they want a point-of-sale that is specific to their type of business,” said Mihir Shah, VP, Merchant OS.

“Breadcrumb POS is free, easy to use, designed for seven of the most popular types of local businesses and comes with one of the most competitive payment processing plans in the United States.”

Launched in May 2013, Breadcrumb POS delivers relevant features for a broad range of merchants, including: the ability to use pre-loaded menus and inventory lists, process offline transactions, scan and redeem Groupon vouchers, track deal performance, add custom item modifiers and more.

As a result of the 1.2 updates, Groupon now has a point-of-sale solution for every type of local business, says the company.
