Portuguese term or phrase: parque de POS
Segundo a Wikipedia, "POS" significa "ponto de venda" ou ponto de serviço". Alguma sugestão para "parque de POS"? Obrigada!
Contexto: "Temos uma rede de captura própria, um moderno parque de POS com links dedicados, e estamos integrados com as principais softwares houses do país. Nossa plataforma oferece soluções completas de transação e distribuição de serviços pré-pagos desde a solução técnica, comercial e de arrecadação de valores com segurança e praticidade."

POS network/system
Explanation:
This is usually how companies and institutions talk about the total number of a certain thing they own... "o parque automóvel de Portugal" does not mean, as you might think, a car park, but rather the total number of cars in Portugal. In this case, because we are talking about points of sale then network or system makes most sense.
