  Meet with consumers’ needs by accepting cash, card or coupon payments; and by offering cash back and E-top ups.

  Don’t risk losing your licence by serving under age customers.

Today’s systems can provide the correct age and date appropriate to the ID of the customer and verify the actual ID, so you’ll always stay on the right side of the law.
• Theft watch
  Being aware of a theft is the first step to avoiding it happening again. Track what is being stolen by reconciling system recorded stock levels and sales, against actual money in the till and stock on the shelves.

Product focus

• Stock control
  Manage your stock in real time and accurately view and predict stock levels for multi-locations. Your intake of stock can be electronically controlled by measuring the number of items sold per week, which will determine exactly how much you need for the following week. As a safety net you can also set stock levels and receive alerts you when a product count is too high or low, which means you’ll never be overstocked or worse, out of stock.
• Product maintenance
  Interrogate your existing products with ease via access to price updates, new lines, current and delisted items, quantity in stock, department, and the vendor you purchased from. Plus add additional products simply by scanning the barcode.
• Purchase ordering
  Say goodbye to mistakes, waste and extra stock, by taking advantage of automatic purchasing run by your system. Existing stock data that recognises a product’s given vendor, reorder level, and reorder quantity, electronically links to your wholesaler and generates an order for items that have fallen below the set level. By only ordering what you need you can now say hello to more floor space and improved cash flow.
• Pricing
  Save hours of time through automatic pricing. Your system will work out product pricing with appropriate margin and print the shelf edge or barcoded labels to go with every item.
• News and magazine sales
  Track the titles you sell by issue. Electronic delivery notes from your news wholesaler enables your system to record every newspaper and magazine by issue number, so you know exactly what has been received, sold or needs to be returned.
