Mary faces the madding crowd. She’s the manager of a busy clothing store, and her day isn’t going to plan. The barcode scanner isn’t responding. The payment terminal has a card read error. The printer is throwing a tantrum. The line is getting longer and more agitated with each passing minute. Finally, her new trainee runs out, screaming in terror.

During a much needed coffee break at a café down the street, Mary notices her server, Lucas, is having a very different day to her own. As a nineteen year old casual waiter, Lucas can typically check the football scores, post a photo on Instagram, and fire off a dozen Whatsapp messages all before the café’s ancient sales system can process an order. But not today. Today, Lucas is serving customers with ease, synching with the kitchen staff, and ringing up orders with a tap of his finger. Even better, he’s barely looked at his phone. So what’s different?

The cafe is using a new range of Android mobile point of sale(mPOS) devices.
