The point of sale is where money meets stock. If the software is slow, customers queue; if it is weak, goods disappear without you knowing where. Here is a practical checklist before you choose.
Checkout
- Fast barcode sales and documented returns.
- Tax receipts with the e-invoice QR code.
- A cash over/short report per cashier at the end of the shift.
- Works without internet, so sales never stop when the connection drops.
Stock per branch
If you have more than one branch, ask: is stock kept separately per branch? Can you transfer between branches? Does a stock count show the differences item by item (missing or extra)? Regular stock counts are the strongest tool for exposing waste and theft.
Purchasing and suppliers
Receiving goods against a supplier raises stock automatically and keeps the purchase cost, so you know your real margin per item. Record damaged and written-off goods with their reason.
Customers and loyalty
- Loyalty points customers earn and redeem.
- Promotions with start and end dates, and gift cards with an expiry date.
- A list of customers who stopped buying, to invite them back.
Reports
Daily sales, sales by branch, best-selling items, loyalty points and stock count differences. That is enough for buying and pricing decisions every week.
Your data stays with you
Bawabetna's program runs on the store's own computers with the records encrypted with you, and separate permissions for the owner, branch manager, cashier and stock keeper. You can import items and customers from your previous software and try the program free for the first month.
Questions?
Which computers does it run on?
The programs run on Windows computers. With several computers, one keeps the office's encrypted vault and the others connect to it over your local network.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Booking, records, invoicing and printing keep working offline. Whatever needs to be sent is sent when the connection returns.
Where are my records kept?
In an encrypted vault on your own computer. Bawabetna does not host your full working records.
Who decides what is shared about a client?
The client. Clients manage their own consent from their own app; a professional never decides on their behalf.
Can I move my data from my current software?
Yes. Client lists and records can be imported from Excel or CSV files, with a preview before importing and the option to undo.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, the first month of every program is free, with all features and no card. Your data is saved on your device during the month; after 30 days without a subscription the program becomes read-only, and your data stays and you carry on as soon as you subscribe.
Which languages does it support?
Every program and this website work in 16 languages: Arabic, English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Turkish, Indonesian, Japanese, Korean and Chinese (simplified and traditional). You can switch at any time.
