  • POINT OF SALE:  An electronic device used at the point of sale (POS) to process transactions and communicate transaction information to a remote computer either directly or through a network.
  • ENTERPRISE:  Legal entity (natural or legal person) that is an organisational unit producing goods or services, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy in decision-making, especially for the allocation of its current resources.
