PHP POS: per location, unlimited registers and employees. The $54.00/mo annual-billing figure and $59.00 monthly figure are this site’s current cloud plan prices, not a competitor page.
Processor choice, not a locked-in 1.5% or Square ladder
Lightspeed publishes 1.5% card-present on Retail X-Series plans. Square publishes 2.6%+15¢ / 2.5%+15¢ / 2.4%+15¢ in-person. PHP POS lets you keep a supported processor or request PHP POS Payments. Lightspeed’s September 2026 payment-link types, saved cards, and chargebacks in POS are theirs — not claimed here.
Mobile repair vs RepairDesk and RepairShopr
RepairDesk names Essential / Growth; RepairShopr names Starter / Repair Shop / Big Chain. PHP POS is the retail POS already used for mobile repair, with work orders rather than those plan names. RepairDesk’s August 2026 memberships and conditional fields are not PHP POS features.
Keep Shopify or Woo for online
Shopify POS Pro is +$89 per location on top of a Shopify plan. A common path is to keep Shopify or WooCommerce for the catalog and use PHP POS for registers. Shopify POS v11.15 cart work (2026-09-14) is Shopify POS, not a PHP POS claim.
