Point of sale for bars, cafés & shops
Fast, touch-friendly till software for your own computer. Pay £149 once and keep trading, even when the internet drops.
Features
Built on a busy bar floor: big buttons, fewer taps, and the reports you actually look at.
Fast selling
Big touch buttons, categories down the side and an A–Z filter. Your best sellers join Favourites on their own, a spirit offers a mixer at its own mixer price, and every drink is stamped with who served it.
Tabs & payments
Start a tab by name or table, move lines between tabs and split the bill evenly. Add a tip, take cash with quick amounts and change due, or ring the card machine you already have.
Staff sales
Every sale is linked to the person who served it. Pick a date range and see drinks, takings, tips and number of sales for each person, plus a simple line chart with their own colour.
Cash-up & reports
Count the drawer on screen and TillOwn tells you whether it balances. Net takings, VAT, cash and card, top sellers and stock used, all on one page, and the report can be emailed to you automatically.
Stock
Book a whole delivery in by the unit, or by the 750 ml bottle or the litre, with quick +6 and +12 steps. Bottle stock reads in litres and millilitres, spirits count down by the shot, wine by the glass, and you get told when it's time to reorder.
Your currency & VAT
Pounds, rand, euros or dollars, with your own VAT rate. Start from a UK or South African starter menu, then make it yours. Printer, cash drawer, card machine, floor pad and emailed reports are all set up from one screen.
Staff start a shift with their own PIN, and several people can be on shift at once. Tap a name to take the till, and Log out ends just that person's shift. Every sale, void and refund is linked to who did it, and manager-only actions need the manager PIN.
Prints to standard 80 mm thermal receipt printers and opens the cash drawer.
Staff on shift tap their name on a phone over the shop Wi-Fi, take orders, and they go straight to the till. Switch hands or log out from the phone.
Your venue name and logo on screen and on every receipt.
Sales are stored on your computer, not someone else's server, with automatic backups.
Best sellers join Favourites on their own once they've sold enough. You pick how many sales.
Start from a ready-made UK or South African drinks menu, then edit prices, items and categories.
Pick yours from a list grouped by region, such as SumUp, Zettle, Square, Dojo, Verifone or Clover. Take the payment on the machine as usual and confirm it on the till. No need to change provider.
Charge a different price when a drink goes in as a mixer, set from the Mixers category. The till price stays as it is, and the floor pad uses the mixer price too.
The till sizes itself to your screen, from a small touch screen to a big monitor. Drag it by the top bar, and it remembers where you put it.
After 60, 90 or 180 seconds without a tap, the till asks who's serving next. Everyone stays on shift, and the tab and order stay open.
Bottle stock shows in litres and millilitres, such as 6 × 750 ml · 4.5 L. Wine comes off by the glass, spirits by the shot.
