A till for a busy counter

The same till on an Android phone and in any computer’s browser. Find the item, take the money, hand over the receipt, and count the drawer at the end of the day.

The Shelfie till on a phone: a cart, the total and the payment button.

Find it, add it, take the money

Search by name or code, scan the barcode, or tap a product from the list.

Scanning: the phone’s camera reads barcodes, and a scanner that types like a keyboard works on the phone and at the web till.
Pack sizes: a single, a dozen or a carton, each with its own price and barcode if you like. The stock is always counted in pieces.
Discounts for the people you allow: the owner and the manager to begin with, never a cashier unless you say so.
Hold a sale while the customer fetches one more thing, and serve the next person meanwhile.

The Shelfie till on a computer: products on the left, a cart with four items and the total on the right.

Paid any way the customer pays

Cash, mobile money, card, bank transfer or credit, and one sale split across two or more.

Cash with the change worked out.
Credit goes straight into the customer’s account in the debt book, within the limit you set for them.
The payment method is kept with every sale, so the cash-up counts cash and mobile money apart.

A receipt for every sale

Every sale is numbered. Each phone numbers its own, so two phones selling at once never clash.

From the phone: Bluetooth thermal printers, the common 58 mm and 80 mm kind, or the receipt as a picture.
From a computer: a receipt sized for 58 mm or 80 mm paper, a PDF, or an invoice PDF.
On WhatsApp: Shelfie opens WhatsApp on your phone with the receipt written out. You press send, from your own number, at no cost from us.

Returns and voids, with a reason

Mistakes are corrected, never erased.

A void needs a reason, and the sale stays in the history marked void.
A return puts good items back on the shelf and writes off faulty ones, so the stock stays right.
With approvals switched on, a void, a refund or a big price cut asks for a manager’s PIN.

Shifts and the cash-up

Open the shift with the float in the drawer. Every sale until closing is counted against it.

Open. Count the float and open the shift.
Sell. Cash and mobile money are added up as you go.
Close. Count the drawer. You see what should be there and what you counted, side by side, and any difference is kept with the cashier’s name.

With cash control switched on: X and Z reports, cash drops to the safe, pay-ins and pay-outs, and a blind cash-up if you want one.

When the shelf says zero

You choose what the till does when an item’s count reaches zero: sell with a warning (the default), sell without asking, or refuse the sale.

A sale made offline is never refused when it syncs. If the count went below zero, the sale is flagged so somebody checks the shelf.
