Choosing POS retail supplies comes down to a practical question: does your business fit a retail-focused bundle at USD 699.00, or a USD 1.00 POS option positioned for restaurants and retail services? The NRS POS System For Retail and the Pax Shift100P both include a merchant-account requirement, so the clearest way to choose is to match the system to the kind of operation you run and the listed price you are prepared to take on.
Quick verdict
Choose the NRS POS System for Retail when your operation resembles the liquor stores, smoke shops, or grocery stores named for the bundle and a custom bundle is the better fit. It is the higher-priced choice at USD 699.00.
Choose the Pax Shift100P POS System when your business is a restaurant or retail service and the USD 1.00 listed price is the deciding factor. Its description specifically positions the Shift100P for those business types.
The listed-price spread is USD 698.00. Both systems are new, made in China, and tied to a merchant account, so neither one removes that operating requirement from the decision.

Where each system fits best
NRS fits retail categories named in its bundle description
The NRS option has the more specific retail-oriented use-case language. Liquor stores, smoke shops, and grocery stores are directly named, which makes it the more natural pick when one of those settings describes your store. The NRS system is also identified as a custom bundle, an important distinction for shoppers looking for a bundled POS arrangement rather than selecting solely by the model name.
Its higher listed price makes the choice most compelling when that retail focus and custom-bundle designation matter to your operation. The NRS title and description also make the merchant-account condition central to the setup.
Pax Shift100P fits restaurant and retail-service operations
The Pax Shift100P is aimed at a broader pairing of restaurants and retail services. That framing makes it the stronger match for a counter-service restaurant, food business, or service-oriented retail operation that falls outside the NRS bundle's named store categories. The USD 1.00 listed price creates a very different upfront price point from the NRS system.
A merchant account remains part of the arrangement here as well. The Pax system is identified as model 100P in the Shift100P series, giving shoppers a clear model reference when comparing it with the NRS model POS.
Product notes
NRS POS System for Retail
Pick the NRS POS System for Retail when your store is a liquor store, smoke shop, or grocery store and you want the custom-bundle designation attached to the NRS model POS. At USD 699.00, it is positioned as the more substantial listed-price commitment in this comparison, and its description connects the bundle to a choice of software plan. The system is new and lists China as its country of origin. Its key limitation is straightforward: a merchant account is required, and the USD 699.00 price is USD 698.00 above the Pax Shift100P's listed price. For a retail business that matches the named categories, those tradeoffs may be appropriate; for a restaurant or retail service focused first on initial listed price, the Pax option aligns more closely.
Pax Shift100P POS System
The Pax Shift100P POS System is the logical starting point for restaurants and retail services because those are the business settings named for it. Its listed price of USD 1.00 is the lowest in this head-to-head, and it is identified as a new Pax model 100P in the Shift100P series. That combination makes it especially relevant when a restaurant or service business wants to keep the listed system price low while choosing a POS built around payment processing. The limitation is that a merchant account is still required, so the lower listed price does not change that condition. It also does not carry the NRS option's custom-bundle designation or its specifically named liquor, smoke-shop, and grocery-store focus.
Final choice by use case
Select the NRS POS System for Retail at USD 699.00 for a liquor store, smoke shop, or grocery store where the custom bundle and NRS retail focus match the business. Select the Pax Shift100P POS System at USD 1.00 for a restaurant or retail service where the Shift100P positioning and lower listed price are the stronger match. In either case, factor in the merchant-account requirement first, since it applies to both choices.
