Groupon has launched Breadcrumb POS, new point-of-sale app designed for small business owners that will compete with offerings from companies like Square.

The Breadcrumb name comes from the hospitality point-of-sale system that Groupon acquired last year. Breadcrumb POS will exist alongside the company's recently renamed Breadcrumb Pro app, which is targeted at larger retailers like restaurants and cafes.

The app has several additional features, including functionality for printed receipts, menus, and discounts.

- Easy Account Creation, Simple Setup, Fast Customer Checkout
- Multiple Tax Rates, Custom Items, Flexible Discounting
- Employee Roles, Menu and Tip Customization
- Beautiful Real Time Sales, Product Mix, Till Reports

Breadcrumb has been around for 2 years now, not sure why this is making headlines.

Sponsored article I'm guessing. Groupon also bought Breadcrumb last year and I personally think they will make it worse. Groupon doesn't really have it all together nor do I think they have what it takes to make this software really shine.

We say right in the article that Groupon acquired Breadcrumb last year. This is a new app intended to broaden the appeal to other businesses beyond the restaurant focus of the original Breadcrumb.

And you should know by now that we don't do sponsored articles.
