What a general store needs.
Small items, many prices and a shop that is open for long hours. The billing must be simple enough for anyone at home to use.
One simple screen
Big buttons, pictures and plain words. A new helper can bill on the first day.
Everyday items found fast
Type two letters of the item name, or scan the barcode. The item is on the bill.
Stock for each item
Each sale takes the item off the stock. Get a message when sugar or salt is running low.
Right GST on each item
Salt is 0%, biscuits 18%, cold drinks 28%. Each item keeps its own rate on the bill.
Many prices, one list
Set one price for each item. It stays the same at the counter, and changes when you change it.
Works without internet
If the internet goes down, the shop keeps billing. Bills are sent when the connection returns.
How the checkout looks.
This is a demo shop in Mysuru with 18 items, and it shows how POS software for general stores works at the counter. These are real screens from the software.
Scan or search
Type two letters of the item, or scan the barcode. The item goes on the bill.
Add the customer
For a regular customer, find them by phone number. Optional for quick sales.
Change the quantity
Set 2 packets of biscuits, or 1 kg of sugar. The total is updated.
See the tax and total
GST is shown in the total, so the customer knows what they paid.
Take payment
Cash, UPI or card. The bill is finished only when it is paid in full.
