Star Micronics Teams Up With Square To Offer Scale Solution For Square Point Of Sale

Square add support for Star Micronics mG-Scale series to add more functionality to their POS solution for retailers

Star Micronics, a leading manufacturer of mobile, point of sale (POS), and customer engagement technologies, is proud to announce that Square has added support for Star’s mG-S8200 scale. Square continues to offer their customers a sleek, unified look in their point of sale with the latest functionality of an integrated scale for sell-by-weight items.

Square Point of Sale is the trusted solution that business owners rely on to help them run their entire business and never miss a sale. With Square’s recent launch of decimal quantity support and the new integration of Star’s new mG-S8200 Scale, Square is now able to offer a weighing solution that communicates directly with the point of sale. This integration will help to eliminate the risk of human error when calculating weight and cost amounts and speed up the checkout process, resulting in shorter lines for the buyers. This solution will provide benefit to yogurt shops, candy stores, delis, and much more.

Star Micronics mG-S8200 is the new large-capacity scale from Star’s mCollection, measuring up to 18 pounds. The scale is NTEP certified, making it legal for trade and offers USB, Bluetooth, or Serial connectivity. The mG-S8200 also offers both wired, or battery-powered options making it perfect for portable use such as farmer’s markets or pop-up shops.

“Star Micronics is very excited to see Square adding support for our new mG-S8200 scale,” says Christophe Naasz, Director of Business Development at Star Micronics. “This will provide retailers with a simplified solution for weighing and selling items, and streamlined operations.”

Coming soon, Square will also support Star Micronics mC-Print3!
