Bill Summary

Requires the Department of Consumer and Business Services to study contract terms for point of sale systems.

AI Summary

This bill directs the Department of Consumer and Business Services to conduct a comprehensive study of contract terms related to point of sale (POS) systems, which are electronic systems used by businesses to process sales transactions and manage customer payments. The department is required to prepare and submit a report to the interim legislative committees focused on commerce by September 15, 2026. The report may include legislative recommendations based on the study's findings. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, meaning the department's mandate will expire on that date. The purpose of the study appears to be gathering information about current contract practices for POS systems, potentially to inform future legislative or regulatory decisions about consumer and business protections in this area.
