One stock figure across every channel

The hardest problem in retail is not taking payment — it is knowing what you actually have. The moment in-store sales, online orders and deliveries are counted in different places, the numbers drift and someone sells something that is not there.

Pratham POS counts stock down from a single product file whether the sale happened at the counter or online, so the figure you act on is the figure that exists. Scanning goods in on delivery with a barcode scanner keeps it accurate from arrival rather than from the next stocktake.

Growing past one store

A second location usually breaks a retail system that was fine with one. Separate tills mean separate reports, separate product files and a manual merge at month end.

The Franchise Suite runs multiple stores from one product and pricing source, tracks each store individually and reports consolidated revenue. Adding a location adds a node rather than requiring a migration, so the system you choose now does not have to be replaced when you grow.

Retail POS for every kind of store

The counter is the same; the stock problem is not. Clothing and footwear need size and colour variants under one product so a sell-out in one size is visible before the shelf is empty. Grocery, convenience and fresh food need scale integration, weighed items, fast barcode scanning and supplier-level stock so reorders happen before the gap appears. Electronics and phone shops need serial-number tracking and repair or service tickets that sit against the sale. Beauty supply, pharmacy-adjacent and gift stores need loyalty, gift vouchers and product bundles recorded against the client. Homewares, hardware and specialty retail need thousands of SKUs, supplier catalogues and layby or special orders that do not disappear from the count.

Pratham POS runs each of these from one product file with variants, barcodes and supplier data, so the figure on the screen is the figure on the shelf, whichever kind of store it is. If you sell online as well, the same product file feeds the web store.

What to look for in a retail POS: a six-point checklist

Take these to every demo, including ours. One stock figure across every channel: in-store, online and delivery must count down from the same product file. Barcodes end to end: scanned on receipt, at the counter and on stocktake, with the scanner configured before it ships. Integrated EFTPOS with your choice of provider: the amount sent from the POS, not typed, and no penalty for keeping your current merchant agreement. Trading through an outage: sales, receipts and stock must keep working when the internet drops. A second store without a migration: centralised products and pricing, per-store and consolidated reporting. Pricing you can read: software, hardware, add-ons and the exit cost on separate lines.

Our answers to each are on the Compare POS Systems page, beside Square, Lightspeed, the Oolio brands and Idealpos, with a written quote within one business day if you want one.
