EPOS, a brand of Ant International’s Antom, was the official point-of-sale system and payments provider across merchandise booths and F&B stalls at Singapore Fintech Festival 2025. The event also marked the debut showcase of EPOS360, an all-in-one app that integrates POS systems, payments, banking and lending services into one platform to help MSMEs start, grow and scale efficiently.
Supporting Singapore’s Premier Fintech Event
Singapore Fintech Festival 2025 brought together industry leaders, innovators, and technology providers from across the global financial services ecosystem. As a payment infrastructure partner, EPOS deployed its point-of-sale systems and terminals throughout the venue to enable frictionless transactions for attendees purchasing merchandise, food, and beverages.
The three-day festival hosted thousands of visitors, creating a high-volume transaction environment that required reliable, fast, and secure payment processing. EPOS payment terminals handled digital wallet payments, card transactions, and QR code-based checkouts across multiple vendor touchpoints, demonstrating the scalability and performance of the platform in real-world conditions.
How EPOS Facilitated On-Ground Transactions
Merchant booths and F&B stalls at the festival relied on EPOS hardware and software to accept payments from domestic and international attendees. The payment terminals supported multiple currencies and payment methods, reducing friction for visitors using different digital wallets or banking apps.
The deployment also highlighted the portability and ease of setup that makes EPOS suitable for temporary event environments.
Introducing EPOS360: An All-in-One Platform for MSMEs
At Ant International’s Singapore Fintech Festival booth, EPOS360 was showcased to festival attendees and potential business users. The platform represents an evolution in how micro, small, and medium enterprises manage operations by consolidating payment acceptance, point-of-sale functionality, banking services, and access to business lending into a single application.
EPOS360 is designed to reduce the fragmentation that MSMEs often face when managing multiple vendors for different business functions. Instead of switching between separate apps for transactions, invoicing, inventory tracking, and financial services, users can access all core tools within one interface.
The platform includes features such as transaction reporting, customer data management, and integration with accounting software. For businesses looking to expand, EPOS360 also provides pathways to working capital solutions and business financing options, addressing a common challenge for growing enterprises.
Addressing MSME Needs Through Integrated Technology
MSMEs represent a significant portion of Singapore’s economy, yet many face operational inefficiencies due to a fragmented digital ecosystem. EPOS360 aims to lower the barrier to adopting digital tools by offering a unified system that scales with business growth.
Small retailers, F&B operators, and service providers can use the platform to accept payments, manage inventory, and access financial products without requiring deep technical expertise. The consolidation of services also reduces subscription costs and simplifies vendor management.
By integrating banking and lending services, EPOS360 enables businesses to apply for credit or manage cash flow directly within the platform. This removes the need to approach separate financial institutions or navigate complex application processes, accelerating access to capital when businesses need it most.
What This Means for the Payment Ecosystem in Singapore
Singapore continues to position itself as a fintech hub, with government initiatives and private sector innovation driving the adoption of digital payment solutions. Events like Singapore Fintech Festival serve as testing grounds for new technologies and partnerships that shape the future of commerce.
EPOS’s participation reflects the broader trend toward integrated business solutions that go beyond payment acceptance. As competition intensifies among payment service providers, differentiation increasingly comes from value-added services such as business intelligence, financial products, and operational tools.
For merchants, the shift toward all-in-one platforms reduces complexity and allows them to focus on core business activities rather than managing multiple technology relationships. For the industry, it signals a move toward ecosystems where payments are one component of a larger suite of services designed to support business growth.
Looking Ahead: The Role of Payment Technology in Business Growth
The showcase of EPOS360 at Singapore Fintech Festival 2025 marks an important step in Antom’s strategy to serve the MSME segment with comprehensive digital solutions. As the platform moves toward wider availability, its reception will depend on how effectively it addresses real operational pain points for small businesses.
Payment technology continues to evolve from standalone transactions to connected experiences that support everything from customer engagement to financial planning. EPOS’s approach reflects this shift, positioning the brand as more than just a leading Point of Sale system provider, but Antom’s all-in-one MSME transformation platform.
The festival provided a high-visibility opportunity to demonstrate both the reliability of EPOS’ payment infrastructure and the potential of EPOS360 to simplify business management for MSMEs across Southeast Asia. As digital commerce grows and customer expectations rise, platforms that reduce friction while adding strategic value will play a central role in enabling business success.
