Cloud POS Overview

Cloud POS is a browser-based Point of Sale system that lets you issue fiscally signed invoices from any device — no software installation required. Just open your browser, upload your certificate, and start issuing invoices.

What is Cloud POS?

Cloud POS is a complete POS system that runs entirely in your web browser. It handles:

• Invoice creation — Add items, select payment type, and fiscalize in a few clicks

• Fiscal signing — Every invoice is digitally signed using your PFX certificate

• Reporting — Invoices are automatically reported to the tax authority

• History — Full invoice history with search, filtering, and receipt printing

Key Features

• No installation — Works in any modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge)

• Any device — Use it on a laptop, tablet, or phone

• Secure — Your PFX certificate is used for signing; data is encrypted in transit

• Real-time — Invoices are fiscalized immediately

• Multi-location — Support for multiple taxpayers and locations

• Offline-aware — Graceful handling if connectivity is temporarily lost

How It Works

1. Upload your PFX certificate — Issued by your tax authority (e.g., FRCS in Fiji)

2. Open Cloud POS — Navigate to the Create Invoice page in the Client Portal

3. Issue invoices — Add items, choose payment type, and fiscalize

Each invoice gets a unique invoice number, a QR code, and a verification URL that anyone can use to confirm it's authentic.

Who Is It For?

Cloud POS is ideal if you:

• Don't have an existing POS system and need a simple way to issue fiscal invoices

• Want a portable solution you can use from any device

• Need a backup POS in case your primary system goes down

• Operate in multiple locations and want a centralized system

Technical Specifications

POS Type

Cloud POS is a computerized Point of Sale system (POS) delivered as a cloud-based web application. It is not a hardware device — it is software accessed through a standard web browser.

Installation

Cloud POS is installed and accessed via the Internet (cloud service). There is no software to download or install on your local device. Simply sign in to the Client Portal at your region's URL and begin using the POS.

Supported Operating Systems

Because Cloud POS runs in a web browser, it works on any operating system with a modern browser:

Any device that can run a modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) can use Cloud POS.

Supported SDC Types

Cloud POS communicates with a Virtual SDC (V-SDC) using a digital certificate in PFX file format. The PFX certificate is uploaded to the portal and used for mutual authentication and invoice signing.

Connection to SDC

Cloud POS connects to the V-SDC over the Internet using HTTPS protocol, as documented in the Technical Instructions for EFD Suppliers. The connection is secured with TLS encryption.

Peripheral Devices

Cloud POS runs in a standard web browser and does not directly interface with peripheral hardware. If the host device is connected to peripherals such as a barcode reader, scale, receipt printer, or cash drawer, those devices interact with the operating system (e.g., a barcode reader acts as a keyboard input) and do not interfere with the standard fiscal POS operations. Invoice creation, fiscal signing, SDC communication, and reporting continue to function exactly as documented regardless of any peripherals attached to the host device.

Product Information

This information is also accessible directly inside the application. On the Create Invoice page in the Client Portal, click the About link next to the page title to open the Product Information dialog. The dialog displays the manufacturer, product name, and the current software version at any time.
