History

The cash register was invented in 1879 by a Dayton, Ohio, tavern owner., James Ritty. Ritty had little success in selling the registers and soon sold the fledgling business. In 1884 the firm was sold again, to two brothers- John Henry Patterson and Frank Jefferson Patterson, who named it the National Cash Register Company. In 1974 the name officially became NCR Corporation. The First Mechanical Cash Register was introduced by NCR. After the company’s acquisition by AT&T in 1991 its name was changed to AT&T Global Information Solutions. However, AT&T divested the company in 1996 and it again was named NCR Corporation.

Retailers are building on their successful implementation of NCR’s point-of-sale technology by installing NCR’s self-checkout lanes and self-service kiosks to minimize wait times and increase customer satisfaction. And just as airlines have empowered consumers to check themselves in for their flights by using NCR’s self-check-in technology, hotels are adopting self-check-in/checkout kiosks to reduce their guests’ wait times.
