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.

Find the item by its barcode or its name, type in the IMEI when it is a phone, take Orange Money or cash, and send the receipt to the customer by SMS or hand it over printed.

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.

Point of sale for Freetown and the provinces

In Sierra Leone a shop is paid in cash and Orange Money, restocked from wholesalers in Freetown, and run by owners who are often away buying the next load of goods. ArmPOS records each sale, payment and delivery as it happens, so the owner of a provision store in Kissy or a pharmacy in Bo can check the day from a phone.

  • Orange Money, filed with the sale

    Customers pay with Orange Money at the counter or when they order from your online shop, and ArmPOS keeps each payment on the sale it covered. Cash goes into the same record, so the day closes with one set of figures rather than a phone full of messages and a drawer of notes.

  • New leones, end to end

    ArmPOS works in SLE, the redenominated leone, on shelf prices, receipts and the monthly report alike. Should you upgrade, ArmPOS converts the plan's cost into leones on that day, and you send precisely that figure from your Orange Money wallet.

  • Phone shops, pharmacies and building materials

    A phone shop in central Freetown logs the IMEI of each handset it sells, a pharmacy in Makeni sends out the oldest batch of tablets first, and a building materials dealer in Kenema sells cement by the bag and iron rods by the bundle or one at a time.

  • A second shop in Bo or Makeni

    Keep the Freetown store as the main stock, open a branch in Bo or Makeni on the same account, and move goods to it on a transfer that someone has to approve before it counts. Every branch then reports its own sales and profit, so you can tell whether the new shop is paying for itself.

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 Orange 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 is the best POS for a phone and accessories shop in Freetown?
One that follows each handset by its IMEI. ArmPOS records the number when the phone is received from your supplier and again when it is sold, so if a customer brings one back you can see who supplied it and when, and take the matter up with them. Accessories sit in the same inventory as ordinary stock, and the shop runs on the phone or laptop already on your counter.
Is Orange Money the only mobile money I can take?
In Sierra Leone, yes: Orange Money is the wallet ArmPOS collects, at the counter and in your online shop, once the shop is on a paid plan and linked to its own MarzPay account. Customers who would rather pay cash still can, and the payments report shows the cash and the Orange Money apart, so the drawer and the wallet are checked on their own.
My pharmacy in Bo restocks from Freetown. How do I know what to order before the trip?
Set an alert quantity on every medicine you keep. When the count on hand reaches it, that medicine appears under the notification bell, on the dashboard and in the Product Quantity Alerts report, and by the end of the week the list for the Freetown trip is ready to go on one purchase order. Deliveries are received in batches with their expiry dates, and the earliest-dated batch is sold first.
Cement got wet in the rains and went hard. How do I take it out of stock?
Write it off as damage. ArmPOS keeps damaged goods apart from sales, so twenty spoilt bags are recorded as damage in the rainy season instead of turning up later as twenty bags nobody can find. When you count the yard, download the count sheet for that warehouse, enter what is really there, and adjust the difference.
What does ArmPOS cost in leones?
Nothing to begin with. Starter is free for 1 branch, 2 users and up to 50 products, and no card is asked for when you sign up. Grow past that and you upgrade from Orange Money, paying the leone amount ArmPOS works out at the day's rate. A trader with a Freetown store and depots in Bo, Kenema and Makeni fits within Professional's 5 warehouses, and Enterprise takes the cap away altogether.
Where are my sales records kept, and who else can see them?
Your business has a database of its own, separate from every other shop on ArmPOS, and the connection between your device and it is encrypted. Every member of staff signs in with a personal login, and their role limits what they can open, so a sales assistant works the till without reaching the profit report or the supplier accounts.
I supply shops upcountry on credit. Can ArmPOS show who still owes me?
Yes. Each buyer carries a running balance and a credit limit that the till will not let a new sale go past, and the customers report lists what every buyer still owes, with the sales and payments behind each figure. When a retailer from Makeni comes back for more stock, the old balance is on screen before the new goods are loaded.
An NGO wants a quotation and an invoice before it pays. Can ArmPOS produce them?
Yes. Put the items in a quotation, email it from ArmPOS, and once the order is confirmed, turn the quotation into a sale. The invoice comes out as a PDF or on A4 paper, and the payment is recorded against it on the day the money arrives, whether that is the same week or the end of the month.
