POSM at Checkout: Small Space, Big Impact
The last 5 seconds matter most.
The shopper is ready to pay — not to think.
Win here by making it effortless:
• “Forgot this?”
• “Last chance before you go”
• “Add one more”
Design for action:
✔ Place products at hand level
✔ Keep displays clean & easy to grab
✔ Use simple lighting to highlight price
✔ Stay compact — respect the space
And QR codes? Only if they remove friction instantly.
Checkout isn’t about selling harder.
It’s about making the final decision easier.
