Free POS Program

Get a POS System at No Upfront Cost

Qualify for a free POS system with your merchant account.

What is the free POS hardware program?

A free POS hardware program places a point-of-sale system in your business at no upfront cost when you open a merchant processing account. Instead of buying terminals, tablets, printers, and cash drawers separately, you receive the equipment bundled with your payment processing contract. Merchant Solutions Corp offers this program to qualifying merchants who enroll in dual-pricing or standard processing agreements. The hardware remains yours to use as long as your merchant account stays active and in good standing. Most merchants qualify for free Clover, Skytab, Talech, Union POS, or Dejavoo placement when enrolled in MSC's dual-pricing or qualifying processing program, and free hardware includes installation, training, and 24/7 US-based support. Pricing depends on business type, processing volume, equipment needs, risk review, and program eligibility. MSC underwrites every account through its processing partners, who set final approval criteria, and places merchants with Fiserv, TSYS, Worldpay, Elavon, Shift4, and Electronic Payment Exchange (EPX). Contact MSC for current rates and program options to determine which hardware configuration and processing structure fits your operation.

How the free POS hardware program works at MSC

Qualifying for free hardware starts when you submit a merchant application to MSC, which reviews your business type, processing history, and volume forecast. MSC then matches you with a processing partner (Fiserv, TSYS, Worldpay, Elavon, Shift4, or EPX) and selects compatible hardware from its portfolio: Clover, Square, Skytab (Shift4), Talech, Union POS, Exatouch, Dejavoo, PAX, Ingenico, Sunmi, Verifone, or Payanywhere terminals. Once approved, MSC ships the equipment and provides installation, training, and 24/7 US-based support. Approval and go-live timelines depend on underwriting review, with standard funding and shipping. Dual-pricing customers pay zero processing fees because the cash discount is passed to the cardholder, while standard Interchange-plus pricing is available, with rates set during underwriting. Contact MSC for current rates and program options. Custom rates apply for merchants at higher volumes. Contact MSC for current rates and program options, because eligibility and hardware selection depend on business type, processing volume, equipment needs, risk review, and program fit.

Who the free POS hardware program is for

Free POS hardware works best for restaurants, retail stores, and service businesses that process card payments regularly and want to avoid upfront capital costs. It fits single-location and multi-location operators who can commit to a processing contract and maintain consistent transaction volume. Businesses already using outdated terminals or paying high bank-branded rates benefit from upgrading to modern Clover, Skytab, or Talech systems without purchase fees. The program also suits startups and seasonal businesses that need to preserve cash flow during the launch phase. It is not ideal for businesses that process payments sporadically, operate in industries subject to stricter underwriting rules, or require highly customized integrations outside MSC's supported platforms. MSC underwrites every account through its processing partners, who set final approval criteria. Industries with higher chargeback risk or regulatory complexity may face additional review steps or be directed toward deposit-reserve structures rather than instant approval. Contact MSC for current rates and program options to confirm your business qualifies for the specific hardware and processing structure you need.

What you get with MSC

With MSC's free POS hardware program, eligible merchants receive the physical equipment (terminal, tablet, printer, cash drawer as applicable), installation support (on-site or remote), employee training, and access to 24/7 US-based customer service. The hardware remains functional as long as your merchant account stays active and in good standing. MSC handles menu and inventory build for restaurant systems, employee setup for multi-user environments, and dispute assistance when chargebacks arise. Hardware support is included, subject to underwriting and program terms. Merchants enrolled in dual-pricing programs receive zero-processing-fee structures where eligible and where state and industry rules allow review. Standard interchange-plus customers receive transparent rate sheets showing interchange pass-through plus MSC's markup. MSC does not guarantee specific monthly service fees, swap fees, or PCI compliance fees without reviewing your application, because those costs vary by processor, business risk profile, and contract structure. Contact MSC for current rates and program options to receive a complete quote showing all recurring fees, transaction costs, and hardware inclusions for your specific business type and processing volume.
