Background 


The touch POS hardware is the physical tool to make POS software perform smoothly and available, such as printing receipt through a printer, scanning the barcode with a scanner and accepting Aadhaar payment through card reader. Contactless payment is popular nowadays, thus if customer hope to enjoy QR payment, the relevant payment entry should be revealed, against the itemized bill payment.   


Certain communication protocols are programmed into the device assembly to make components stay independent and work in synchrony. This is also the reason why Telpo offers hardware SDK to allow you make secondary development and fully leverage the power of software.
