About the Retail Dictionary

The Retail Dictionary is a free, public resource maintained by Fiscal Solutions. It helps retail technology professionals, integrators and compliance teams converge on a shared vocabulary for POS, fiscalization, e-invoicing, digital receipts and retail compliance.

Each concept has one recommended term, plus the most common synonyms, abbreviations and alternative phrasings — so you find the same definition whether you search for e-receipt, digital receipt or electronic receipt.

“Misunderstandings in retail technology often start with terminology. Our goal is simple: create a shared vocabulary that makes communication clearer across retailers, software vendors and compliance teams worldwide.”
