Speed at the register, correct shelf prices, full control behind the scenes
Thousands of products, hundreds of receipts a day, and prices that keep changing. Posmist brings the whole grocery operation onto one panel — fast barcode checkout, an offline-capable register, ESL shelf labels, and FIFO profitability.
What happens on the ground, and Posmist's answer
01The register slows down at rush hour, a line forms
Keyboard shortcuts, quantity multiplier (+N) and mixed payment mean checkout in seconds.
02The shelf price doesn't match the register price
The moment you save a price, the ESL shelf label updates wirelessly — no more wrong-price complaints.
03I don't know how much I'm making on which product
Real net profit by product and category with FIFO costing; expenses are allocated into net earnings.
04Sales stop when the internet drops
Offline-first register: sales are stored safely on the device and sync automatically once reconnected.

Grocery & Convenience Store businesses ask
Will my current barcode scanner and printer work?
Yes. It works with standard USB/Bluetooth barcode scanners and label printers — no special hardware required.
In a multi-register store, does each register run separately?
Each register runs on its own device, but all sales land in the same account; reporting is by shift and cashier.
Can I sell scale/weighed products?
Weighted-barcode support lets scale-labeled items be scanned directly.
