POS Quick Billing at Counter Speed

Ring up sales at lightning speed using the POS counter screen, barcode scanning, and fast payment collection for a smooth checkout experience.

Step-by-step guide

  1. 1

    Open the POS screen

    Tap "POS Billing" from the main menu or use the shortcut on the home screen. The POS interface is optimised for speed with a product grid on the left and a running cart on the right. Ensure your screen brightness is up for barcode scanning.

  2. 2

    Add items using the product grid or barcode

    Tap any product tile to add it to the cart, or tap the barcode icon and scan the product barcode with your phone camera. The item is added instantly with the correct price and tax. Tap the tile again to increase the quantity.

  3. 3

    Adjust quantities and apply item discounts

    Tap any cart item to edit its quantity or apply a line-level discount. You can also type a quantity directly using the number pad. The cart total updates in real time so you and the customer can see the running amount.

  4. 4

    Select the customer (optional)

    For loyal customers, tap "Add Customer" and search by name or phone to link the sale to their account. This updates their ledger, allows you to extend credit, and builds a purchase history that helps with personalised offers.

  5. 5

    Process the payment

    Tap "Charge" and select the payment method — Cash, Card, or digital payment methods such as UPI in India, payment links, or bank transfers. For cash, enter the amount tendered and the app shows the change to return. For digital payments, a QR code or payment link is displayed for the customer.

  6. 6

    Print or share the receipt

    After payment is confirmed, a receipt is generated automatically. Print it on a connected Bluetooth thermal printer, share via email or WhatsApp, or show a digital receipt on screen. The sale and stock deduction are recorded in the background.

Pro Tips
