Point of sale
A register for the counter, with payments built in.
Ring up the sale, take the card on a certified terminal, and close the day to a number that matches your deposit. Included in your rate, with no monthly software fee.
The register
Everything a counter needs, and nothing you have to set up twice.
Items, staff, terminals, and reporting live in the same back office as your invoices and your website, so the day ends with one statement.
Ring up the sale. A register that runs on the tablet or laptop you already have at the counter.
- An item grid with variants, modifiers, discounts, and tax rates, imported from a spreadsheet
- Tips, notes, and a customer attached to the ticket
- Card, cash, or a split between them
- Receipts by print, email, or text, and refunds by item
Take the card on a terminal. A certified PAX terminal paired to the register. The card is encrypted inside it before anything else sees it.
- Tap, dip, or swipe, with Apple Pay and Google Pay as ordinary contactless payments at the same rate
- The register starts the sale and the terminal shows the tip prompt, the total, and the result
- Terminal status on the screen at all times, with keyed entry as a fallback
- Keys injected before shipping, so the terminal works out of the box
Close the day. An end of day per location and device that reconciles to the deposit.
- Gross, refunds, tips, tax, cash, card, and net, in one summary
- The same numbers appear on the statement and in the deposit, line for line
- Sales by day, item, category, location, and staff member
- The summary emailed at close
Locations and staff. One account for every counter, with the right access for each person.
- Locations with their own receipt text, tax rates, and tip presets
- Staff sign in to the register with a PIN and see only the register and their own sales
- Owners and managers see everything from the back office
- Every action recorded, so questions have answers
