About this Independent Merchants: Interview on POS and Payment Terminals role at Terac
What We're Researching
We're running a paid study on the technology stack that powers independent retail and service businesses. Help us evaluate how merchants navigate the crowded market of point-of-sale systems, payment terminals, and local advertising options. Your operational insights will directly inform the next generation of merchant tools.
How It Works
You will participate in a 20-minute remote interview led by an AI moderator. During the session, you will answer questions about your current POS setup, how you process payments, and what drives your hardware upgrade decisions. The AI will adapt its follow-up questions based on your specific business environment and daily challenges. You will speak freely about what works and what frustrates you in your current technology stack.

We are looking for independent merchant owners, general managers, and operational leaders who make technology purchasing decisions. We welcome retail owners, restaurant operators, and local service providers who actively manage payment terminals.
