What is Dappos?

Introducing Dappos: An open-source Ethereum Point of Sale for your retail
ERC-20 & Dai
The Dappos register now works with ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain.
The first token we have added is the USD stablecoin DAI, which we will keep as standard choice besides ETH. Stablecoins is a fantastic invention that will allow the market to make the transition to cryptocurrencies easier, by combining a stable asset we all have known forever, with the power of the blockchain.
Merchants who accept DAI will have the benefit of lower volatility for their daily sales.
We want to keep our app as simple as possible, but still be powerful for those merchants who want to accept other ERC-20 tokens. That’s why we are planning to add the ability to manually add ERC-20 tokens from the settings in the near future.
Split payment support
We want Dappos to be as flexible as possible. And that means working seamlessly with split payments!
In Japan here, paying the bill is often split among friends and — because service is awesome here — the shops don’t frown or sigh when asking to each pay individually.
We wanted to reflect this ease and comfort in Dappos so that customers can pay individually without extra effort and the shop doesn’t need to do anything extra. If 5 people need to pay a total of 0.5 ETH, they can all just send a 0.1 ETH transaction and Dappos will automatically sum incoming transactions and start checking for block confirmations on the last transaction.
It’s all uphill from here
We are always looking for ways to make Dappos the best and easiest to use POS register for shops to accept crypto currencies — with 0 fees!
We love hearing your feedback and do our best to improve as much as possible before the official release.
You can still sign up for the beta here. And we look forward to any comments or collaboration opportunities!
