# Dual-Screen POS: When Is It Worth It?

Dual-screen POS terminals in Kenya

Do you know what sold today, and who sold it?

Read on: it takes a few minutes and could save you a lot more than that.

**In this guide you will see:**

- Customers see items and totals.
- Fewer disputes.
- Space for promotions.

Quick answer

A second screen faces the customer and shows the sale. It pays off where trust and speed matter, such as supermarkets and pharmacies.
