## Data

- UK EPOS Price Index. Methodology: Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 3 of the 37 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 34 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 14 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 242 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: the true monthly cost of a till, which NO vendor publishes as one number: software per terminal + hardware amortised over the term the vendor actually sells (outright, rental or lease) + the card rate the vendor bundles, joined per vendor and per tier from the vendor's own pages; the median, range and quartiles of the published entry software price across every vendor that publishes one; the SHARE of the UK vendor universe that publishes no figure at all, which is the market's own answer to the buyer's question and which no comparison site measures across the whole set; the cheapest published total at a stated card turnover, where a free-software vendor on 1.75% crosses a paid-software vendor on a lower rate; and repriced-since the previous read
