SAN DIEGO, June 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- LUMOS today announced the launch of their iPad Point-of-Sale system with integrated ecommerce at Startup San Diego. This subscription-based system provides the ability to have both Point-of-Sale and an ecommerce web presence so smaller retailers can benefit from tools previously only available to the larger retailers.

A recent survey funded by PayPal shows that 64% of small businesses that create an online presence experience increased sales. Of the businesses surveyed, almost half thought their ecommerce site expanded their geographic sales and almost 75% felt their sites helped them save money.

As a VC-funded, early-stage startup, the LUMOS Point-of-Sale system is designed for brick and mortar retailers that want to have a strong online presence, as well as a seamless ecommerce solution. LUMOS offers a complete retail management solution for small business with features that include an ecommerce web builder, inventory tracking, payments processing, cash drawer management, employee reporting, customer loyalty program, social media integration and an email marketing platform, which are all accessible via an intuitive web and iPad interface.
