SumUp Launches Terminal: An All-in-One POS for Growing Businesses
By Lauren Hinton · 8 July 2025
Global fintech SumUp today launched SumUp Terminal, an all-in-one point of sale (POS) device that directly addresses the challenges faced by growing businesses. By combining a card reader, full POS, ordering system, and receipt printer into a single standalone device, Terminal empowers merchants to streamline their entire operation, from taking orders at the table to managing staff, inventory and reporting. This design allows staff to leave the sales counter behind, taking orders and payments directly on the shop floor or right at the table.
To accelerate setup, Terminal uses its built-in camera to instantly digitise an entire product list from a single photo. Thanks to this innovative AI-powered feature, merchants can capture their handwritten or printed menu, and the device automatically creates an editable digital catalogue. This significantly reduces manual setup time, allowing merchants to then easily add descriptions, images, or new products.
"We see countless merchants hit a growth ceiling where a simple card reader is no longer enough, but a traditional POS system feels too expensive and complex," said Tomer Sabag, Chief Hardware Officer at SumUp. "Terminal was built to be that perfect next step. It delivers the core operational power a growing business needs with the speed, ease-of-use, and affordability that are hallmarks of the SumUp ecosystem. It’s designed to help our merchants scale in an easy and seamless fashion."
Key features and benefits for merchants include:
-
- All-in-One Efficiency: Take card payments, manage orders, fast check-out, and print receipts or order tickets from a single device.
- Built for a Full Day's Work: An intuitive HD touchscreen and a long-lasting battery make it easy for staff to use all day.
- Smarter Operations: Create custom staff profiles with role-based permissions and access real-time sales reports to make informed business decisions.
- Seamless Accounting: In the UK and Ireland, merchants can integrate leading accounting solutions (e.g. Sage Accounting, Xero, QuickBooks) to simplify bookkeeping.
- Dual Connectivity: With built-in WiFi and a free 4G mobile data connection, the device automatically uses the strongest network to ensure payments are never interrupted.
