METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING AUXILIARY PRODUCT SALES IN POINT-OF-SALE TERMINAL

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce a burden for paying a coin back to a customer or receiving a coin from the customer.;SOLUTION: A POS terminal determines upsell offered in exchange for change to the customer related to shopping. Preferably, the POS terminal maintains a database of at least one upsell price offered to the customer in exchange for the change to be paid to the customer and the upsell corresponding to it. When the customer receives the upsell, a cashier performs display like that by pushing a selection button of the POS terminal. Next, a payment amount required to be paid by the customer is set to be equal to a rounded price instead of a purchase price. Thereby, because the customer receives the upsell instead of the paid coin, exchange of the coin between the customer and the POS terminal is not required.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
