Retail is challenging—especially when it comes to payments. Imagine a store during peak hours: a long queue at the billing counter, a device losing connection due to unstable Wi-Fi, or a POS device shutting down because of a dead battery. Every second of downtime means lost revenue, frustrated customers, and a hit to operational efficiency.
