The Global POS Software 2022 report is based on analysis of projects with at least 1,000 POS software installations globally. The study covers more than 2,350 projects. The report analyzed over 120 suppliers across 48 country markets, looking at sectors within retail and hospitality including grocery, apparel, electronics, DIY, department stores, hotels, and restaurants.

The report found that new POS software deployments increased in the year between June 2021 and June 2022, with nearly 390,000 new installations taking place in those twelve months. The study also found that many large-scale grocery and convenience retailers are moving to a different POS supplier to expand the availability and range of in-store touchpoints.
