Retail POS that keeps stock and sales in step
Every scan at the counter and every delivery at the back door updates the same stock count. SeroPOS handles barcodes, sizes and colours, suppliers, transfers, lots and expiry dates, so the number on screen matches the shelf.

A till that speaks shop
Switch on Retail Mode and the app uses shop wording and drops what a store does not need: tables, service types, kitchen tickets and the kitchen display all disappear. The home screen becomes a single New Sale button, so a cashier goes from customer to cart in one tap.
Scan with any USB or keyboard-style barcode scanner and an exact SKU match goes straight into the cart; phones and tablets can scan with the camera too. Products with sizes or colours open a variation picker, open-price items ask for the price, and items sold by weight read the connected scale or ask for the weight on a keypad.
Products, variations and barcode labels
Build the catalogue in the web back office: single products, products with variations such as size and colour, and combos. Each product can carry a brand, category and sub-category, unit and sub-units, an alert quantity, a reorder quantity, a warranty and, for electronics, IMEI or serial numbers. Rack, row and position can be set per location.
Barcodes can be Code 128, Code 39, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A or UPC-E, and SKUs are generated if you leave them blank. Print Labels lets you pick products and quantities, choose what prints, such as name, price, lot and expiry, and print on the sticker sheet or roll size you set up.
Purchases, suppliers and stock movements
Enter a purchase against a supplier and the stock goes up at the location that received it, with the unit cost, any discount and tax, and lot numbers and expiry dates where you track them. You can update selling prices from the purchase screen, record supplier payments, and return goods with a purchase return.
Stock Transfers move goods between locations, with a status that locks once completed. Stock Adjustments record damage, loss or counts that do not match, with a reason and any amount recovered. Every product has a stock history showing each movement that changed its quantity.
Lots, expiry and the products that go off
For grocery, pharmacy and anything with a shelf life, turn on product expiry and lot numbers in Business Settings. Choose whether to keep selling expired items or stop selling a set number of days before the date. The dashboard warns about stock nearing expiry.
The Stock Expiry Report lists stock left per lot with its manufacture and expiry dates, and lets you remove expired stock as an adjustment. The Lot Report shows, for each lot, what is in stock, what has sold and what was adjusted.
Prices, discounts and customers
Selling price groups hold different prices for wholesale, trade or VIP customers, set per product and exported or imported as a spreadsheet. Customer groups take a price group or a percentage up or down. Automatic discounts apply by product, brand, category or location, between start and end dates, in the price and customer groups you choose.
Customers can earn and redeem reward points, buy on account up to a credit limit, and receive invoices by email. The Stock Report shows current stock and its value at purchase and selling price, and the Trending Products and Product Sell reports show what is moving.
Selling online too
On the Pro plan, WooCommerce connects your online store: push categories and products with their variations, images, prices and stock, and pull web orders into SeroPOS as sales, with each WooCommerce order status mapped to a sale and shipping status.
With the Online ordering and QR add-on, each location also gets an online catalogue where customers can browse, order and pay by card through your Stripe account or pay when they collect.
Frequently asked questions
Does SeroPOS work with a barcode scanner?
Yes. Any USB or keyboard-style barcode scanner works in the product search with no driver to install: scan an item and, if the SKU matches exactly, it is added to the cart. On phones and tablets you can also scan with the camera. Barcodes can be Code 128, Code 39, EAN or UPC, and labels print from the back office.
Can I print barcode labels for my products?
Yes, from the web back office. Open Print Labels, add the products and quantities, and choose what goes on each label: name, variation, price with or without tax, business name, lot, expiry and packing date. Set up your sticker sheet or roll once under Barcode Settings, preview, and print. Labels are not printed from the app.
Does SeroPOS track expiry dates and lot numbers?
Yes. Turn on product expiry and lot numbers in Business Settings, then record them when you enter purchases or opening stock. You can keep selling expired items or stop a set number of days before the date. The Stock Expiry Report and Lot Report show what is left of each lot and let you remove expired stock.
Can I move stock between my stores?
Yes. Stock Transfers in the back office move products from one location to another, with shipping charges and notes if you need them. Once a transfer is marked completed it can no longer be edited, so the record stays reliable. Each store's stock, and the Stock Report for each location, updates when the transfer is done.
Can I sell at wholesale and retail prices?
Yes. Create selling price groups, such as Wholesale or Trade, and set a price for each product in each group, or export the prices to a spreadsheet and import them back. Put customers in a customer group linked to that price group, and their sales use those prices automatically. A location can also default to a price group.
