Initially this Mobile POS Software Share is focused only on the North American market.
The data is provided with Shipments and installed base with the following roll-ups
Total Market
Share in retailers with fewer than 50 stores
Share in retailers with more than 50 stores
We provide this delineation on the market share as we realize the market at the smaller retailer level is quite a bit different than that at the enterprise level. The systems are different, the vendors are different, and the load on various systems are different.
In addition, the data is broken out by each of the following segments:
Food/Grocery (Kroger, Safeway, Trader Joe’s, Wakerfern, Tesco,)
Drug Stores (Walgreens, CVS)
Superstore/Warehouse Clubs/Hypermarkets (Walmart, BJ’s Wholesale, Costco, Auchan)
Mass Merchants (Target, Meijer Stores)
Department Stores (JC Penney, Sears, Kohls, Kaufaf, Marks and Spencer)
Specialty Hard Goods (Home Depot, Lowes, Best Buy, Rooms to Go, Canadian Tire)
Specialty Soft Goods (H&M, Limited Stores, Wet Seal)
Convenience/Gas/Forecourt (Chevron, Exxon,)
Fast Food (McDonald’s, Subway, Burger King, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell)
Bar/Restaurant (Applebees, Buffalo Wild Wings, Chipotle)
Lodging (Marriott, Sheraton, Hilton)
Entertainment:Casinos and Cruises (Carnival, Harrah’s, Wynn, Caesar’s Palace)

What do you define as Mobile POS?
There are no doubt many mobile devices ranging from phones to phablets to tablets of all sizes. This specific service is for those devices being used by associates to process a transaction. This can be with or without credit/debit readers. A consumer grade device or retail hardened. If it is purposed as a way to take transactions, we count it. To be clear, this is limited to the traditional retail segments as defined. We are not counting charities, repairmen, delivery men or garage sales where individuals add a dongle and swipe a credit card. But this is traditional retailers in this particular study. For non-traditional retail for transactions, or mobile device information beyond POS, contact us for more information.
What retail market segments (verticals) do you address?
Our format for the study is based on detailed analysis of the following 8 retail market segments:
Food/Supermarkets
Drug Stores
Hypermarkets/Superstores/Warehouse Clubs
Department Stores
Specialty Stores
Mass Merchandisers (includes Discount Stores)
Convenience Stores/Gas Stations
Hospitality (Restaurants, Lodging and Entertainment)
For North America we further segment Specialty Stores into Specialty Category Killers and Specialty Other, and Hospitality into Fast Food, Bar/Restaurant, Lodging, Casinos/Cruises, and Entertainment: Theme Parks, Stadiums, Museums, others.
How do you define SMB and Enterprise?
There is quite a difference between Enterprise Mobile POS vendors and those that focus on SMB. And there are some that work in the middle. We needed to find a happy medium between the two. Since most of the volume is either small 1-2 store retailers and those above 100 stores, we used 50 stores as the cutoff. So this data and market share is broken out by those vendors concentrating on retailers with fewer than 50 stores and those above. So the likes of Square, Groupon, etc. would be considered vendors in the below 50 stores and then others like Oracle, Starmount, Toshiba, etc. would be listed in greater than 50.
Can I buy just one segments or just the enterprise or just the SMB data?
Yes, you can purchase as little as one segment. pricing begins at $1,500.
