POS System

🔍 Overview

Redesigned Curbngo’s POS system to combine food-runner functionality with payments, inventory, and admin tools. Focused on speed, usability, and seamless cashier adoption.

🧠 Understanding the Problem

Cashiers using the old POS faced long queues, pressure, and confusing navigation during peak hours. The interface lacked clear structure, making it hard to find products quickly. Inconsistent visual elements and poor feedback increased the risk of mistakes, frustrating both staff and customers waiting in line.

🎯 The Objective

Create a POS interface that’s easy for cashiers to learn and fast to use, even during high-volume hours. The goal was to help them serve customers more efficiently by improving navigation, feedback, and layout clarity. For store owners, added admin tools reduced overhead and improved daily operations.

🛠️ The Process

I began with competitive research, studying how modern POS systems support speed and clarity. I created a split-screen layout so the left side could handle food-runner tasks and the right focused on building the order. The design had to work for cashiers under pressure, often with a lineup of customers waiting. I iterated on wireframes and tested task flows like clock-in, item search, and payment. The goal was to reduce hesitation and make every tap feel natural, especially for staff new to the system.

✅ The Result

The new POS interface helped cashiers process orders faster, even during lunch or dinner rushes. Store owners reported fewer errors and quicker training times for new staff. The split-screen layout made it easier to handle multi-step tasks without losing focus. Everyone—from seasoned cashiers to weekend staff—felt more confident using the system.
