What Do Small Shops Need from a POS?
A basic retail shop needs: barcode scanning, inventory tracking, cash sales, simple reports, and receipt printing. Most free POS options cover this but with frustrating limitations.
Common Problems with Free POS Systems
- Product limits of only 10 to 50 products
- No cloud access — data lost if laptop fails
- No VAT/SSCL compliance
- No customer or credit management
- Forced to upgrade for basic reports

- Cloud access from any device
- Barcode scanning

When you grow beyond 200 products or need instalment credit, upgrading starts at just Rs. 3,500/month.
