What Is RetailTill?
Quick Answer: RetailTill is a browser-based point of sale system for retail stores, restaurants, and service businesses. It runs in any modern browser on tablet or desktop and supports cash, card, and split-tender payments — with built-in product catalogs, customer profiles, and real-time sales reporting.
Who is RetailTill for?
RetailTill is built for small business owners who want a fast, modern checkout experience without the cost or complexity of enterprise POS platforms. Cafes, boutiques, salons, repair shops, and pop-ups all use it to ring up sales from a single tablet or laptop.
What features does RetailTill include?
- Multi-tender checkout — cash, card via Stripe, or split between both
- Product catalog — images, SKUs, barcodes, categories, optional stock tracking
- Customer profiles — purchase history, total spent, visit count
- Discount codes — percent or fixed-amount, with usage limits and expiry
- Receipts — print on standard or 80mm thermal paper, or email instantly
- Daily and date-range reporting — revenue, top products, sales by cashier
- Owner and cashier roles — fine-grained access without sharing admin logins
- Mobile-first design — works on any tablet or phone, no app install
How much does RetailTill cost?
RetailTill is licensed as a self-hosted system with a one-time fee, with an optional managed hosting plan if you'd rather not run a server. Stripe processing fees apply on card payments at standard Stripe rates — we never take a cut.
How is RetailTill different from other POS systems?
Most POS platforms lock you into proprietary hardware and recurring subscriptions. RetailTill runs in any browser, integrates with your own Stripe account, and stores your data in a database you control. There's no vendor lock-in and no surprise rate hikes.

Does RetailTill work without internet?
RetailTill requires an internet connection because it runs entirely in the browser and connects to your hosted database. Most modern shops already have stable wifi, so this is rarely an issue, and your data syncs in real time.
Can I accept credit cards?

Does it support split tender?
Yes. Customers can pay part cash and part card on the same transaction. The split tab lets the cashier enter both amounts, and the system validates that they total the order before processing.
Can I print receipts?
Yes — receipts can be printed from any browser using the standard print dialog, optimized for both standard and 80mm thermal receipt paper. Customers can also receive receipts by email.
Does RetailTill track inventory?
Yes. You can mark any product as stock-tracked and set a quantity. RetailTill decrements stock automatically on every sale and shows low-stock alerts on your dashboard.
