Keep the queue moving, keep the shelves honest
Thousands of lines, thin margins and a queue that will not wait. SaleSprint gives supermarkets and convenience stores a till fast enough for peak hour and a stock record accurate enough to order against.
What generic POS software gets wrong here
- ✕Half the basket scans and half of it does not. Rice by the kilo, tomatoes off the scale and a loose-count item all need their own handling, and a till that only understands barcodes turns each of them into a manual price entry.
- ✕Stock says forty, the shelf has nine. Once a till is allowed to sell what the system does not have, the stock file stops being something you can reorder from, and the gap only grows.
- ✕Short-dated goods are found by a staff member walking the aisle. Without batch and expiry on the stock record there is no list of what expires this month, so the write-off is discovered at the point it cannot be sold.
- ✕Counting means closing. If a stock take needs the whole shop frozen, it happens twice a year, and between those counts nobody trusts the numbers enough to act on them.
Built for the way you actually operate
Every one of these is a real screen in SaleSprint — not a request form or a “coming soon” tile.
Barcode Scanning at Speed
Plug-and-play USB and Bluetooth scanners, multi-barcode support per product, and quick keys for the items that never carry a code. Cashiers keep both hands on the basket.
Weighed & Loose Items
Sell by kilogram, by bag or by piece from the same product, with scale integration at the counter and unit conversions defined once so every pack size draws the right stock.
Expiry & Batch Tracking
Goods come in with a batch and a date. You get a near-expiry list to mark down before it is dead money, and a write-off trail when it is not saved in time.
Rolling Stock Counts
Count an aisle, a category or a single shelf on a phone while the shop trades. Variances post as adjustments with a reason and an approval, not as a silent correction.
Aisle, Shelf & Negative-Stock Policy
Organise products by aisle and shelf so counts and picking follow the physical shop, and decide per location whether selling below zero is blocked, warned or allowed.
Promotions & Loyalty
Run buy-one-get-one, bundle and tiered discounts from a rule engine rather than from the cashier keying it, and let customers earn and redeem points across your branches.
How a day runs
Receive the delivery
Goods land against the purchase order with batch, expiry and cost captured at the back door. Discrepancies are raised there, not at month end.
Price and shelve
Prices and markdowns are set centrally, shelf labels printed, and the product is placed in the aisle and shelf it lives on.
Trade the day
Cashiers scan, weigh and take cash, mobile money or card, with manager approval required for the few things that need it. The till keeps working if the line drops.
Count, cash up, reorder
Count a section, close the tills against counted cash, and order from what the stock record and the movement reports now actually say.
Everything included
Typical fit
We used to shut for two days to count. Now a supervisor counts two aisles a morning and the shop never closes.
Questions we get
What hardware do we need?
A Windows PC, an Android tablet or a laptop, a standard USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner, a thermal receipt printer and a cash drawer. If you sell weighed goods, a supported counter scale. You do not need proprietary POS hardware, and you can start with what you already own.
Can you import our existing product and price list?
Yes. Products, barcodes, prices, suppliers, customers and opening stock import from Excel. Most shops go live with their real catalogue rather than retyping it, and the same tool exports everything back out whenever you want it.
What happens at the till when the internet goes down?
Cashiers keep scanning and taking payment. Sales are stored on the device and sync automatically when the connection returns. Offline is the default assumption, not a fallback we bolted on.
How long does it take to train cashiers?
The Quick Retail till screen is deliberately small: scan, tender, print. Most cashiers are independent within a day. Everything that carries risk — refunds, price overrides, voids — sits behind a permission, so a new cashier cannot do damage while learning.
We have four branches. Can head office see them all?
Yes. Stock, prices and products are managed centrally, each branch holds its own stock and till sessions, and consolidated dashboards and reports roll the group up. Branch managers only see their own location unless you grant more.
