A card machine only processes payments. A portable POS does that and more. It manages your product catalogue, tracks sales in real time, records sales by staff member, and gives you reports without needing a separate system. Yoco's handheld devices are portable POS systems, not just card machines.

It depends on how and where you serve customers. Khumo 2 is the lightest and most affordable option, ideal for businesses that move around or want to keep things simple.

Khumo Print 2 adds a built-in printer for businesses where receipts and order slips matter, like cafés, takeaways, and bakeries.

Yoco Counter is a large-screen countertop setup for businesses that need a permanent, staffed checkout point. All three run the same POS software.

Khumo 2 doesn't have a built-in printer, so if printing slips is part of your workflow, you'll need to pair it with a separate printer.

Khumo Print 2 has a printer built in, so there's no extra hardware to manage.

No. Yoco's POS software is built into every device at no extra monthly charge. The only recurring cost tied to the device is the R49/month data connectivity fee, which keeps your SIM active for backup connectivity.

Yes. You can start with one Khumo 2 or Khumo Print 2 and add more devices as your team grows.

When you're ready for a fixed checkout point, you can bring in a Yoco Counter without losing your existing catalogue or sales history.

Portable devices like Khumo 2 and Khumo Print 2 are handheld. Your staff can take payments at the table, in the queue, or anywhere on your floor.

A counter setup like Yoco Counter is fixed at one point, with a larger screen designed for a staffed till. If your team moves, go portable. If your checkout doesn't, counter makes more sense.

With a separate POS and card machine, you're managing two systems, two subscriptions, and potential reconciliation headaches. Yoco combines both into one device with no monthly software fee - your payments and sales data are always in sync.

Every sale updates your stock, every transaction links to a staff member, and your reports are ready the moment you need them.

No end-of-day reconciliation, no manual counting, no second system to log into. For busy service businesses, that means less admin, fewer errors, and a clearer picture of what's working.

Yoco's handheld POS devices run on battery (up to 18 hours on the new models), so they keep working through outages. The multi-network SIM also means you stay connected even when your Wi-Fi router goes down, as long as your R49/month data connectivity plan is active.

Most merchants are up and running the same day their device arrives. You can set up your product catalogue in the Yoco app before your device is delivered, and if you need a hand, our team can help you get it ready.

There's no IT setup, no complicated integrations, and no installation fees. Whether you're coming from spreadsheets, a separate card machine, or an older POS, the switch is typically straightforward.

Yoco's support team is available seven days a week if anything comes up along the way.
