Abstract: A location regulated POS system employs a customer POS subsystem and a provider POS subsystem connected by one or more networks. The customer POS subsystem is operated by a customer and the provider POS subsystem is operated by a provider of good(s)/service(s). In operation, the subsystems (1) conduct a transaction between the customer and the provider for the good(s)/service(s) as ordered by the customer (remotely or locally) from a provider location (stationary or mobile) for receipt of the good(s)/service(s) to the customer, (2) track a customer location (stationary or mobile) relative to a preparation time zone encompassing the provider location, the preparation time zone for managing a preparation by the provider of the good(s)/service(s), and (3) identifies the customer location relative to the provider location for the receipt of the good(s)/service(s).
