Refurbished POS Hardware from Volcora
New POS hardware is a significant upfront investment, particularly for businesses opening a first location, adding additional stations, or replacing equipment on a tight budget. Volcora's refurbished POS hardware range offers a cost-effective route to commercial-grade point of sale equipment, with a two-year warranty as well as the same US-based support that covers every new Volcora product.
Each unit in this collection has been inspected and tested before listing. Stock is limited and availability changes, so check individual product pages for current status.
Why Buy Volcora Refurbished POS Hardware
- Reduce upfront hardware costs. Refurbished POS equipment typically costs significantly less than new, making it easier to manage budgets when setting up, expanding, or replacing hardware across multiple locations. For businesses with limited capital, lower upfront costs also mean a faster return on investment.
- Same warranty coverage as new. Unlike most refurbished hardware suppliers, who offer 90-day warranties as standard, Volcora backs its refurbished products with the same limited lifetime warranty that applies to all new Volcora equipment.
- Tested before it ships. Every refurbished unit goes through a full reconditioning process before listing: inspection, cleaning, data destruction, reimaging, factory reset, and a complete functional check to confirm it meets Volcora's standard before listing.
- Supports environmental sustainability. Buying refurbished extends the useful life of existing hardware and reduces electronic waste. For businesses with sustainability goals, refurbished equipment is a straightforward way to reduce the environmental impact of technology purchasing.
- US-based support included. Volcora's support team is based in New York and available to assist with setup, compatibility questions, and any issues that arise after purchase, whether the hardware is new or refurbished.
Is Refurbished POS Hardware Right for Your Business?
Refurbished hardware suits some business situations better than others. Here's a straightforward breakdown:
A good fit if:
- You’re opening a first location and need to reduce startup hardware costs
- You’re adding a backup terminal or extra checkout station and don't need a new unit for the role
- You’re replacing a failed unit quickly and need an affordable, fast solution
- Your POS software is already established and you need compatible hardware at lower cost
Worth considering new hardware instead if:

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "refurbished" mean for Volcora POS equipment?
Volcora refurbished products are units that have been previously sold or returned. Each unit is manually inspected, repaired for any identified flaws, and re-imaged before being relisted for sale. They are not new but are confirmed functional and meet the same operational standards as new Volcora hardware.
Do refurbished Volcora products come with a warranty?
Yes. All Volcora refurbished units are backed by a two-year warranty. This is notably different from the industry standard for refurbished hardware, where 90-day warranties are common.
Is refurbished POS hardware compatible with my existing POS software?
Volcora hardware is software-agnostic and not locked to a specific POS platform. Compatibility depends on your software's system requirements. The refurbished Windows 11 POS terminal supports a wide range of POS software. If you have a specific compatibility question before purchasing, contact the Volcora support team at support@volcora.com.
How much can I save on refurbished equipment for POS systems?
Pricing varies by product. Across the industry, refurbished POS hardware typically costs 40 to 70% less than equivalent new equipment, though savings on Volcora refurbished units will vary depending on the specific product and current availability.
Is refurbished stock always available?
No. Refurbished stock is limited and availability changes. Check this page regularly or contact the sales team to ask about upcoming availability for specific products.
