The Techpole's OCTOPOS solution helps to prevent COVID-19.

Techpole's OCTOPOS solution can help prevent COVID-19 due to certain features, aside from organising the POS, generating an image of professionalism in the business in which it is installed, or improving the ergonomics of the point of sale, there are other features that help prevent COVID-19, these features are:

• Helps to prevent the security distance between the worker and the customer.
• The POS is easier to clean and disinfect.
• The POS devices are also easier to clean.
•  The OCTOPOS encourages card payment by reducing cash flow.

The OCTOPOS solution helps to maintain the safety distance between the customer and the worker, in case the customer wants to pay by card only the arm where the payment terminal is placed already interposes a distance between the payment terminal and the pole, depending on the position of the worker the distance will be even greater.

Thanks to the organization offered by the OCTOPOS, the point of sale and its devices are much easier to clean and disinfect as the devices are in their respective holders and only the pole stands on the counter making simple the disinfection of the point of sale.

Currently it is preferable to pay by card rather than cash to avoid the passage of the banknote, the OCTOPOS solution facilitates payment by card by having the payment terminal or pin pad on an arm that allows the customer to pay while maintaining the security distance.
