On darknet diaries the stories told are a little more straightforward.

They just walk in to the store, steal a tablet out of the manager's hands, run away with it, and make all the changes they can with the logged-in session until corporate locks out the device.

People sell this as a service and supposedly have numbers on how long from a provider tablet is stolen until the device gets locked out. If I remember correctly T-mobile was/is considered to have the "longest" time from when the device is stolen, there for the most valuable.

Maybe T-Mo should consider using hardwired terminals again if they can't figure out how to geofence their POS tablets. This also might help with employee job satisfaction since they are less likely to be assaulted at work.
