Retail

A till and a stock ledger that finally agree

Point of sale and inventory in one system, built for shops, supermarkets, and wholesalers in Ghana and the United States.

Where retail systems usually break

Most shops run sales and stock as two separate records. Sales go through a till, stock lives in a notebook or a spreadsheet, and by month end nobody can say what sold, what walked out, or what should have been reordered a week ago.

We build retail systems where the till and the stock ledger are the same system. Every sale, delivery, transfer, and adjustment moves the same numbers, so the figure on screen is the figure on the shelf.

That single record is what makes the rest possible: real reorder levels, real margins, and a variance you can trace back to a shift and a name instead of writing it off.

What the system does

Built around the counter, the stockroom, and the daily close, not around a demo script.

Fast counter workflow

Barcode scanning, search by name or code, held sales, split and partial payments, returns and refunds that reverse stock correctly.

Offline-first tills

The till keeps selling through a connection loss and syncs when the line returns. The queue never waits on a router.

Live inventory

Stock moves on every sale, delivery, transfer, and adjustment, with reorder levels driven by what actually sells.

Cash accountability

Named cashier shifts, cash-up against that shift, and a variance trail that shows when and where a drawer went short.

Multi-branch control

Central pricing and consolidated reporting while each branch keeps its own counts, transfers, and daily close.

Owner reporting

Daily takings, margin, and stock position across every location, without calling each shop manager in turn.

Built for how shops here actually trade

Connectivity is not a given, and a till that stops when the line drops costs you the day. Payment habits vary by counter and by customer, so cash, card, and mobile money all belong in the same sale.

The same applies to stock. Deliveries arrive short, prices change mid-week, and goods move between branches without paperwork. The system records those realities instead of assuming they do not happen.

Handled at the counter

  • Cash, card, and mobile money on one sale
  • Held sales when a customer goes back for one more item
  • Partial payments and customer accounts
  • Returns and refunds that put stock back where it belongs
  • Price and promotion changes without closing the till
  • Shift handover with a printed and stored cash-up

Who this is for

Retail operations that have outgrown a cash box, a spreadsheet, or an ageing till.

Shops and supermarkets

Replacing manual tills or ageing POS hardware, and needing stock figures that survive a busy Saturday.

Wholesalers and distributors

Tracking stock across a warehouse and a shop front, with transfers recorded on both sides.

Multi-branch retailers

Operators in Accra and beyond who need branch numbers without a branch visit.

US retailers

Businesses that want a system fitted to their operation rather than a rented template they grow around.

Questions

Retail POS Software questions

The things operators ask before committing to a build. If yours is not here, ask us directly and we will answer it plainly.

Yes. Tills are built offline-first. Sales, returns, and stock movements are recorded locally and sync automatically once the connection returns, so trading never stops because of a network outage.
