The point of sale that's actually yours.

Free, open source and offline-first — a full sale completes with no internet at all. Runs on a Raspberry Pi, an old laptop, or a proper touch terminal. No monthly fee for the core. Ever.

Universal Till sale screen

A till for every kind of shop

One system, tuned to how you actually sell.

Grocery & convenience

Barcode scanning, weighed items, fast tender, and offline resilience for busy corner shops.

Retail & boutiques

Variants, product photos, catalogue import, and clean receipts with your own branding.

Service trades

Barbers, repairs and workshops: quick sales, VAT invoices and credit notes for business customers.

Cafés & restaurants

Held orders, split tender, fast repeat items, and a kitchen-ready workflow through plugins.

Market stalls & pop-ups

Runs on a phone-sized budget with no signal needed — pack up, move, and keep selling.

Growing to many tills

Add a second till by scanning a QR; they sync over your own LAN for free, no cloud required.

No lock-in. Of any kind.

No contracts or proprietary hardware

Runs on generic hardware you already own — a complete DIY till costs from about £70. No multi-year tie-ins.

No payment-processor lock-in

We never sit in your money flow. Use any card machine and any processor — no fee creep, no frozen payouts.

Your data, exportable, always

Full catalogue and sales export to CSV whenever you want. Your shop, your records — take them anywhere.

Offline-first, truly

The internet going down never stops a sale. Everything works locally; syncing is a bonus, never a requirement.

See it in action

Real screens from a running till — not mock-ups.

Runs on hardware you choose
