POS system and stock control for shops in Kenya

No. BelloPOS is not an eTIMS solution, is not connected to KRA and does not transmit invoices. You keep issuing eTIMS invoices through the KRA option that suits you, such as the eTIMS Client, the online portal or eTIMS Lite. BelloPOS handles what eTIMS does not: stock, customer credit, staff, reports and AI. Ask your accountant how best to run both side by side in your business.

Yes. BelloPOS Lite is free for good, not a trial. On one till you can sell, print receipts, add products, scan barcodes, print barcode labels and track stock, and we never ask for a card. When you want credit accounts for regulars, wholesale price groups, purchase orders, scheduled backups or Ares AI, move up to Go. Restaurants and shops with several tills usually choose Pro.

Yes, as a payment method. BelloPOS is not linked to M-Pesa, so the customer pays to your Till or Paybill as usual and the cashier selects M-Pesa on the sale. Each sale then shows how it was paid, which helps you check against your M-Pesa statement at closing. You can add Airtel Money, bank transfers, cards or any other method the same way.

Yes. Selling, receipts, stock and reports all run on the computer or Android tablet in your shop, so a dead router, finished bundles or a fibre outage do not stop the counter. Extra tills and waiters' phones connect over your own Wi-Fi, not the internet. Keep the PC and receipt printer on a small UPS for power cuts; a tablet keeps running on its battery. Only Ares AI and plan activation need a connection.

Yes, with Go. Create the customer, set a credit limit and sell on account. Every purchase and payment goes into their ledger, the till warns you when they reach the limit, and you can print a statement at month-end. It replaces the credit book on the counter, and the customer sees exactly what they took and when.

Yes. With Go, you create price groups such as wholesale, kiosk or hotel and attach customers to them. Select the customer at the till and their price appears automatically, while walk-in buyers pay the shelf price. Stock comes from the same product list, so you always know what is left whether a carton went to a kiosk or single packets went over the counter.

A Windows PC or laptop, or a Mac running macOS 12 or later. Add a 58 mm or 80 mm receipt printer, a USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner and a cash drawer if you want them; most standard models work. A touch screen is optional. BelloPOS also runs on Android tablets (Android 7 or later). With Pro and Pro+, our team installs the software remotely and helps you connect the printer and scanner.

Message us on WhatsApp with the plan you want. We confirm the price, tell you how payment can be made and send your licence key once payment is received. Every purchase is invoiced from the USA. You can try every Pro feature free for 7 days first, and paid plans have a 14-day money-back guarantee.
