Description
Odoo POS Box By Webkul is a compact POS hardware device that replaces a POS computer and connects peripheral devices to Odoo.
Once connected and configured with Odoo, the box powers each device in sequence and processes orders placed through the POS screen.
Admins skip a full desktop CPU and instead plug a display monitor, barcode scanner, and printer directly into the box.
Each box ships with a micro SD card that holds the configured POS Box image, a USB charger, and a power adaptor.
It is not a downloadable product. After checkout, the buyer emails Webkul the order details, and the purchase includes a setup at no extra cost.
Additionally, if you want to give your Odoo POS a dedicated screen for scanned items, check Odoo POS Barcode Screen.
NOTE: After the Purchase, you will get a free one-time setup of the POS BOX. Also, no support will be provided for the following damages:
- Physical Damage
- Electrical Damage
- Liquid Damage

Why Do We Need Odoo POS Box By Webkul?
Odoo POS Box By Webkul exists because a standard POS counter needs a full computer to run the register, scanner, and printer.
That computer takes up counter space, adds extra cabling, and gives the store one more device that can fail during checkout.
One small unit takes that computer's place, powering the connected devices in sequence for the Odoo POS system.
The box carries 4 USB ports. A barcode scanner and an ESC/P receipt printer, like the EPSON TM-T20, can both run from it at once.
Also, if you want to extend the same Odoo POS setup with marketplace selling, check our extension Odoo Marketplace POS Extension.
And if you want a customer-facing display for the monitor connected to the box, check our extension Odoo POS Customer Cart Screen.
