A till that keeps up on a busy night.
Kaiso POS is point of sale for restaurants, bars, shops, chandleries and fuel docks. It runs in the browser on a tablet or PC, prices include VAT, and every shift's takings go straight into your books.
Made for the way the islands pay
Prices that include VAT
Set the price your customers see. The VAT inside it is worked out on every sale and reported in your VAT return.
EC$ and US$ cash
Take US$ at your own rate and give change in EC$. Cash totals round to the nearest 5 cents, now that 1 and 2 cent coins are gone, and the rounding is recorded.
Card, cheque or split
Take part in cash and part on card. Card tips are kept separately as money owed to staff.
Tables and tabs
Put a bill on a table or a name, send food to the kitchen, move items between bills and split the bill however the guests want.
Barcodes and stock
Scan or tap. Every sale comes off stock at average cost, so the books show your real margin.
Charge to account
Put a sale on a customer's account and it becomes an invoice. Fuel for a boat goes on the owner's marina bill.
A cash-up that matches the drawer
Open each shift with a float. At closing, count the drawer note by note and Kaiso shows what's over or short.

Questions
What hardware do I need?
A tablet or PC with an up-to-date browser and an internet connection. Receipts print on any 80 mm receipt printer your device can print to. A USB barcode scanner works like a keyboard, so it needs no setup.
Does it work if the internet goes down?
Not yet. The register needs a connection to record each sale. Working offline is on our list.
Does it connect to my card machine?
Not directly. Take the card payment on your terminal as usual, then choose Card in Kaiso. The shift report gives the card total to check against the terminal's settlement.
Do I need Kaiso Bookkeeping too?
Bookkeeping comes with POS and is switched on with it, because each shift's takings post there. Payroll is included under the same login.
What does it cost?
Try it free for 30 days. Get in touch for the monthly price in EC$ for your number of registers.
