Luxury Lexicon A definition

Cash wrap

The store counter or area where purchases are paid for and usually wrapped or bagged.

The cash wrap brings together the counter space and equipment used to complete a store purchase. It commonly accommodates a point-of-sale terminal and the materials needed to bag or wrap merchandise. Staff use the area to process payment and finish the customer’s visit, so its organisation affects the flow of checkout. The term refers to the checkout area as a whole, while a POS terminal is a particular device used there. Stores using mobile payment devices may also complete transactions elsewhere, without bringing every customer to a fixed counter.
