The OpenCage Geocoding API is a cost-effective service to convert high volumes of GPS coordinates captured by payment terminals into locations.
The last years have seen an explosion in innovation around point of sale. As payments go mobile, payment processors need to know where transactions happen. Real-time locations from mobile devices (GPS coordinates) need to be converted into addresses; a process known as geocoding.
