(PRLEAP.COM) Atlanta, GA. Affordable Payment Solutions (APS), (www.Affordable-Pay.com ) a reseller of Royal’s CCM1000 cash register, announces a solution to "counter clutter” for small businesses. “ For small businesses, counter space is prime real estate,” explains Walter Murphy of APS. “These registers allow the retailer to have his cash register, credit card terminal and printer and scanner – in one machine.”

The first of its kind and price point, less than $1000, the registers have credit card processing and UPC scanning built into the box, making it a compact point of sale system for small businesses while delivering big retailer benefits — speed and accuracy. The registers support most popular payment networks and operate similar to higher end Point of Sale registers at a fraction of the cost. “For new businesses or businesses looking to streamline their checkout, these registers are ideal.”

“Besides the space saving, which is important in cramped quarters, the credit card transactions are faster and more secure.” With the scanner and credit card swipe, the transactions are keyless. “The cashier doesn’t have to enter amounts or do math.”

The CCM1000 supports all electronic payment types, credit and debit, and all transaction types like voids, refunds and authorizations only. The register also provides the ability to download sales information to Quickbooks Pro and the traditional features a cash register affords retailers, like tax calculation, clerk reporting, discounts, among others.
