Everything your retail shop, cafe, or market stall needs to ring up sales effortlessly.
No external laser guns or Bluetooth pairing headaches. Point your device camera at any retail barcode. Use Scan OUT at the register to ring up items in 1 second with audible chime confirmation, and Scan IN on the products screen for rapid stock intake.

Manage your entire product catalog with barcodes, retail categories, wholesale costs, and sales prices. The system monitors on-hand stock and immediately alerts you when inventory is running low.
Never lose access to your cash register because of an internet outage. All transaction history, daily takings, and customer names live securely on your device. Zero external cloud servers snooping on your trade data.
Start every trading day with opening float balancing. Ring up cash tenders with instant change calculation, and generate balanced End-of-Day X/Z register reports with 1-click CSV exports for your accountant.

Real feedback from operators who replaced subscription hardware with AMC AutoPOS™.
"I was paying $69/month plus hardware lease for my cafe POS. The camera barcode scanner on my iPad scanned all our coffee bean bags instantly. Paid $79 once and saved over $800 in my first year."
"The offline reliability is rock solid. We lost cellular service at our weekend pop-up market, but AMC AutoPOS kept ringing up sales and tracking our stock without missing a single beat."
"Being able to scan in new inventory directly with the back camera without buying a $300 laser scanner gun is brilliant. The contactless tap simulation works like a dream."
