Hey @jewelry - 

Welcome to the Community! 

If you don't have a power source, I would recommend using one of our readers that hook up to your phone. It would need cellular data or wifi to run. Check out the magstripe readers or Contactless + Chip Reader on our Square Shop. 

But you wouldn't need reader if you're using Point of Sale for only cash transactions. The readers are only used for debit or credit transactions. You can still use it for inventory too!

I would check out all of our hardware at our Square Shop to see what would fit your business. Some of the readers can be paired with your phone or tablet to take payments and others are standalone devices. Each one has the ability to send text or email receipts to your customers.
