POS for Retail Shops in Uganda | CranePOS Retail Point of Sale
For retail shops & boutiques

The point of sale built for Uganda's retail shops

From boutiques and phone shops to electronics and general merchandise stores, CranePOS gives you a fast till, real-time stock and clear numbers - so you sell more, lose less and always know where your shop stands.

A till your cashiers master in minutes

Stock that counts itself

Accountability for every shift

Know your best day, hour and product

EFRIS & URA

Compliant

The daily reality

Running a shop on paper is quietly costing you money

When sales, stock and staff live in a book and in your head, small leaks add up to real losses by the end of every month.

Manual pricing and receipts

Handwritten receipts and mental arithmetic slow the queue and open the door to costly mistakes.

You never really know your stock

Without live counts, best-sellers run out while dead stock quietly ties up your cash.

No control over staff

When anyone can ring up a sale or change a price, shrinkage and unexplained gaps become normal.

Guesswork instead of numbers

You feel busy, but at month-end you cannot say which products, days or hours actually made money.

EFRIS receipts done by hand

Switching to the URA portal for every fiscal receipt is slow and error-prone at a busy till.

When the internet drops, the shop stops

Cloud-only tools leave you unable to sell the moment the network goes down.

The CranePOS way

Everything your shop needs, in one simple system

CranePOS turns the everyday work of running a retail shop into a few taps - and gives you the numbers to grow.

A till your cashiers master in minutes

Scan or tap, take cash or mobile money, print a receipt. The CranePOS terminal is touchscreen-friendly and fast, so lines move and new staff are productive on day one.

  • Barcode scanning and quick-pick items
  • Cash, MTN MoMo, Airtel Money and card
  • Instant printed or digital receipts

Stock that counts itself

Every sale updates inventory in real time. Low-stock alerts tell you what to reorder before you run out, and slow movers surface before they eat your capital.

  • Real-time stock across every shelf
  • Low-stock and reorder alerts
  • Barcode generation for untagged goods

Accountability for every shift

Give each cashier their own login with only the permissions they need. See sales, discounts, voids and refunds per person, so shortages finally have a name.

  • Individual staff logins and roles
  • Per-cashier sales and shift reports
  • Audit trail on voids, refunds and price changes

Know your best day, hour and product

Live dashboards and profit reports show exactly what sells, when and at what margin - so you stock more of what works and cut what does not.

  • Daily, weekly and monthly sales
  • Profit & loss and top-seller reports
  • Export to Excel or PDF

Questions & answers

Retail shop POS - frequently asked questions

Is CranePOS suitable for a small retail shop?

Yes. The Starter plan is built for single-location shops with up to 3 users and 500 products, giving you a full POS, stock control and reports from UGX 900,000 a year.

Can I use CranePOS without a barcode scanner?

Absolutely. You can sell using quick-pick buttons or search, and generate your own barcodes for products that do not have them. A scanner simply makes checkout faster.

Will it work when my internet is down?

The CranePOS desktop and mobile apps are offline-first. You keep selling during an outage and everything syncs automatically once you are back online.

Does CranePOS handle EFRIS for my retail shop?

Yes. The Fiscalised plan issues URA fiscal e-receipts and e-invoices directly from the till, with automatic VAT and a URA-authenticated QR code on every receipt.

Can I track more than one shop?

Yes. On the Premium and Fiscalised plans you can manage unlimited branches, transfer stock between them and see a consolidated view of the whole business.
