    OpenCart POS French NF525 Add-On

    Updated 11 October 2023

    OpenCart POS French NF525 Add-On: This extension helps you to digitally secure your point of sale transactions as per the French Law NF525. All the POS receipt, order invoices, receipt copies will have a digital signature on them.

    The software subscribers in France are now restricted in their ability to modify the completed sales. The restriction will bring your software into accordance with the French anti-fraud measure NF525.

    NF525 regulates all cash drawer and accounting software. So, the French law requires that all the taxable businesses that are recording their payments via a cash drawer, accounting, or management software must utilize a program which meets the established conditions of sales data inalterability, security, storage, and archiving.

    The purpose of this anti-fraud law is to avoid the modification or deletion of transactions and reduce tax evasion across the European Union.

    Note:  This extension is an add-on to the OpenCart Point Of Sale System(POS). Before using this add-on, you must have first installed the OpenCart Point Of Sale System(POS).
