Why ArmPOS

One system for sales, inventory and every branch

Most small businesses juggle a till, a stock book and a spreadsheet. ArmPOS brings your point of sale, inventory management, purchasing and accounting into one system, so every sale updates your stock and your numbers at once.

Every branch, one view

See stock in every shop and warehouse from one account, down to the rack. Move items between branches with approved transfers, and every movement is recorded.

Know before you run out

Set an alert quantity for each product. When stock falls to it, ArmPOS flags it in the notification bell and on the dashboard, branch by branch, so you reorder before a customer leaves empty-handed.

Speaks your team's language

Use ArmPOS in 24 languages, including English, Spanish, French, Arabic, Hindi and Chinese, with right-to-left screens for Arabic.

Profit you can see

Sales, profit and stock value update with every sale. Open the dashboard on any device and know how today is going, branch by branch.

Sell online too

Open your own online shop with the same products and stock. Online orders become sales in ArmPOS, so you never sell what you no longer have.

How ArmPOS works

From sign-up to daily profit

Create your free account and set up your shop in minutes. Import products, customers and suppliers from Excel, and give each person on your team their own login.

Scan the barcode on the packet, take Airtel Money, cash or a card payment the cashier notes down, let a regular spend loyalty points, and print the ticket in CFA francs or send it by SMS.

Every sale, purchase, return and transfer updates your inventory. See what your stock is worth and what is running low in each branch.

Sales, profit, inventory and staff reports for any branch and any dates, ready to print or export to PDF and Excel.

From the port at Owendo to the shelf

Much of what Gabonese shops sell is imported, so the shelf price has to cover what the goods cost to bring in, and stock must be counted with care between the warehouse and the store. ArmPOS keeps the purchases, the shelves and the till in one system, priced in CFA francs, from an épicerie near the Mont-Bouët market to a building-materials yard in Franceville.

  • Airtel Money at the counter and online

    Customers pay with Airtel Money at your till or when they order from your online shop, and each payment is recorded against its own sale. Cash and card sit beside it in the same report, with the card simply noted by the cashier, because ArmPOS does not connect to card terminals.

  • CFA francs from purchase to receipt

    Purchases, shelf prices, receipts and the stock value report all read in XAF, so the margin on each imported product shows in francs. The ArmPOS plans follow the same rule: their price is turned into XAF with that day's exchange rate, and Airtel Money pays it franc for franc.

  • Supermarkets, boutiques and building materials

    A supermarket in Libreville scans the barcodes already printed on imported packaging, a boutique keeps every dress in each size and colour under its own code, and a building-materials shop sells tiles by the carton or by the piece without its stock going wrong.

  • Libreville, Port-Gentil and Franceville

    The Libreville store stays the hub, and branches in Port-Gentil or Franceville join it on one account. Nothing leaves the central warehouse for a branch until a manager has approved the transfer, and you can compare what each branch sold, spent and earned without waiting for a phone call.

Point of sale features

Everything you need at the counter: a fast POS screen on any device, flexible payments, and receipts your customers can keep.

  • Fast checkout

    Search or scan products, apply discounts and promo codes, and complete a sale in seconds on a computer, tablet or phone.

  • Barcode scanning

    Scan with a USB scanner, a phone or tablet camera, or weighing-scale labels that carry the weight in the barcode.

  • Mobile money

    Take Airtel Money at the till and in your online shop.

  • Receipts and invoices

    Print receipts on 58mm or 80mm thermal paper or A4, or send them by email or SMS. Turn quotations into sales and PDF invoices.

  • Held sales and returns

    Park a sale and finish it later, and take returns at the till that put items straight back into stock.

  • Cash register

    Open and close the register, record cash in and out, and see what the drawer should hold at the end of each shift.

  • Customers and loyalty

    Keep customer records and balances, and reward repeat buyers with loyalty points they spend at the till.

  • Keeps selling offline

    If the internet drops while you sell, ArmPOS keeps recording sales on the device and syncs them when you're back online.

Inventory management features

Know what you have, where it is and what it's worth, in every shop and warehouse. Your stock updates itself as you sell, buy, return and transfer.

  • Multi-branch inventory

    Track stock in every shop and warehouse, down to the rack, from one account.

  • Stock transfers

    Move stock between branches with transfers that need approval, so every item is accounted for.

  • Low stock alerts

    Set an alert quantity per product, and the bell, the dashboard and the quantity alerts report show what to reorder in each branch.

  • Purchases and suppliers

    Raise purchase orders, receive stock into the right warehouse and track what you owe each supplier.

  • Batches and expiry dates

    Track batches with expiry dates and sell the earliest-expiring stock first, for pharmacies and food businesses.

  • Serial and IMEI numbers

    Record serial or IMEI numbers for phones and electronics, and trace every unit from purchase to sale.

  • Variants and units

    Sell in sizes and colours, by the pack or by the piece, with unit conversions handled for you.

  • Counts and adjustments

    Download a count sheet by warehouse and category, then record adjustments and damages so your records match the shelf.

Run the whole business

Beyond the till: your online shop, your accounts, your team and the tools you already use, in the same system as your sales and stock.

  • Your online shop

    Your own web shop with collections and banners. Customers pay by card or cash on delivery, and orders come from the same stock.

  • Accounting and profit

    Expenses, cash and bank accounts, profit and loss, and a full accounting module with journals, a trial balance and a balance sheet.

  • About 60 reports

    Sales, payments, tax, customers, suppliers, staff and inventory reports, including stock value, ageing and expiry, to print or export.

  • Staff and permissions

    Give each person their own login and decide what they can see and do. Keep shifts, leave and attendance records too.

  • Integrations

    Sync products, stock and orders with WooCommerce and Shopify, and send your sales to QuickBooks as invoices.

  • Messages and campaigns

    Send invoices and marketing campaigns by email, SMS and WhatsApp to bring customers back.

  • Hardware that fits

    Works with USB barcode scanners, 58mm and 80mm receipt printers, label printers, a customer display and cash drawers through QZ Tray, or simply the phone you already have.

  • Kitchen display

    Send orders from the till straight to a kitchen screen, so cafés and takeaways prepare them in order without paper tickets.

Frequently asked questions

What should the best POS for a Libreville supermarket do at the checkout?
It should read the barcodes that come printed on imported goods, so nothing has to be keyed in, and give every cashier their own login and register. ArmPOS works with USB scanners or a phone's camera, prints on 58mm or 80mm receipt printers and opens the cash drawer through the QZ Tray app, while each till's takings stay separate for the end of the shift.
Which mobile money does ArmPOS take in Gabon?
Airtel Money, at the counter and in your online shop, for a shop on a paid plan that has connected its own MarzPay account. Each Airtel Money payment is saved with the sale it covers, so the evening's total is there on the screen beside the cash. Card payments are recorded as well, as a method the cashier picks, since the terminal itself is not connected.
Companies in Port-Gentil buy from me on account. Can ArmPOS invoice them and track what they owe?
Yes. Prepare a quotation, email it to the company, and turn it into a sale on the day the order is confirmed, without entering the items again. ArmPOS produces the invoice as a PDF, adds the unpaid amount to the company's balance, and keeps every invoice and payment on that customer's record.
A builder needs nine tiles, not a whole carton. Will my stock still be right?
Yes. Tell ArmPOS how many tiles a carton holds, and it converts each sale and each delivery between cartons and pieces. Sell nine pieces in the morning and two full cartons in the afternoon, and the stock shows what is left both ways.
Imported yoghurt, cheese and biscuits carry expiry dates. Can my épicerie sell the oldest first?
Yes. Receive each delivery as a batch with its expiry date, and the till takes from the batch that expires first. Before a tray of yoghurt passes its date, the expiry report has already listed it, which leaves time to cut the price or talk to the supplier.
My branch in Franceville is far from me. Can I stop staff there from changing prices?
Yes. Each person signs in with their own login, and their role decides what they can see and do. Let the Franceville cashier sell and take returns, keep price changes for the branch manager, and read the branch's sales from Libreville the same day.
What does ArmPOS cost in CFA francs, and how do I pay for it?
A boutique with one counter can stay on Starter, the free plan for 1 branch, 2 users and up to 50 products, without ever entering a card. Larger plans are priced in XAF at the day's rate and paid with Airtel Money to the exact franc. Professional brings up to 5 warehouses, while Enterprise lifts the limit altogether.
My accountant uses QuickBooks. Can ArmPOS send my sales there?
Yes. Connect QuickBooks and your sales go across as invoices, so the accountant starts from the shop's own figures instead of a pile of printed receipts. Anything else they ask for, from the tax report to the stock value, can be exported from ArmPOS to PDF or Excel.
