About Epos Now
Epos Now is a major UK-origin EPOS provider (Norwich) for retail and hospitality, known for its low-cost Complete Solution hardware bundle and strong stock control and reporting. The software runs on a care-and-support subscription, and card processing runs through Epos Now Payments, whose rate is quoted rather than published (the vendor states "from 0.8%" with a rate match). Offline mode, a large app store, and accounting integrations are included. Note its 12-month minimum (care plans can run longer), a common complaint.
Epos Now was founded in 2011 and is headquartered in Norwich, United Kingdom.
