Sound familiar?
Most POS software was built a decade ago. You feel it every day at the counter.
Checkout takes too long
Clunky screens, slow search, double-entry for taxes and discounts. Customers notice.
Inventory never matches
Stock on screen and stock on shelf live in different universes. Reorders are guesswork.
Reports are a wasteland
Data exists, but answers don't. You export to Excel just to find what sold yesterday.
Pricing feels predatory
Per-device fees, per-transaction fees, upsells for basic features. It adds up fast.
Support is a ticket hole
Urgent bugs sit for days. Feature requests disappear. You're a number, not a customer.
Your data isn't yours
Leaving means abandoning years of sales history. Exports are half-broken on purpose.
pos-sass, the honest alternative.
Built by a small team that uses it every day with real retailers.
Checkout in ~3 seconds
Instant search, barcode-ready, hold & resume. The sales screen feels like it's anticipating your next move — because it is.
Inventory that matches the shelf
Real-time quantities, low-stock alerts, and per-store tracking. Reorders stop being a guessing game.
Reports with actual answers
Filter by date, store, user, category. Export PDF or CSV in one click. The first question of the morning should take 5 seconds, not 50 minutes.
Honest pricing, real support
Free during Early Access. No per-device fees, no transaction cuts. Talk to the team that builds it — not a ticket queue.
pos-sass vs. legacy POS
What you actually get — without the marketing gloss.
How we decide what ships.
Small team, clear principles. Every decision is measured against these.
Simple beats clever
If it takes a support call to use, we've failed.
Fast beats featured
A fast two-click path wins over a feature nobody finds.
Transparent always
Honest pricing, honest changelogs, honest conversations.
Secure by default
Security isn't a premium tier — it's a baseline.
The best way to judge is to click around.
