Retailers and restaurants in Mombasa are moving to Posnic, a complete POS software that costs nothing and hides nothing. It is open source, runs fully offline on your own computer, and handles sales, inventory and reports without a monthly fee.
Everything lives in a local database you control, exportable to CSV any day, with a documented sync protocol.
Thermal receipt printers, barcode scanners, label printing, weighing scales and cash drawers are all supported.
Checkout in Mombasa never waits on the internet. Posnic runs on the shop computer, keeps billing through any outage, and syncs later if you use Posnic Cloud.
Configurable tax groups handle VAT with inclusive or exclusive pricing, printed correctly on every receipt.
Prices, receipts and reports display in shillings with local number formatting, configured once per store.
Scan-and-sell with barcode scanners, or tap through sales on touch screens and tablets. Both are first-class.
Posnic for your business: Grocery · Restaurants · Cafes · Fashion · Pharmacy · Electronics · Hardware
