Inventory management
Tracks stock, shrinkage by department, category or product, and cost-based price suggestions, with mobile counts and receiving.
Automated purchase orders
Adds products to a purchase order when stock falls below a minimum set by the store, and can forecast from sales trends.
Batch and lot tracking
Tracks inventory by batch or lot number to manage freshness and spoilage.

Integrated payment processing
In-house processing for cards, contactless apps and EBT, with next-business-day funds and optional card fee offset programmes.

Self-checkout
Self-checkout software that can switch between customer-operated and cashier-assisted use at the same lane.

Reporting and analytics
Reports on product sales, peak hours and seasonal department trends, viewable from any internet-connected device.

Pricing
- Starting price
- From USD 49 per month
- Pricing model
- Subscription per lane
The pricing page shows a Starter plan at $49 a month, with the Growth and Premium prices hidden until a form is filled in. The vendor's FAQ says the software has a monthly fee per lane covering use and maintenance, and that packages with POS and hardware are typically under $3,000. A monthly support plan with unlimited training starts at $39.99 a month; that is a separate add-on and is not the starting price.
