Offline POS
Offline POS software that doesn’t stop when the internet does
Your database lives on your own device. Internet outages don’t freeze the till, don’t lose sales and don’t leave customers waiting.
- Every plan
- Windows, Mac & Android
- Works offline
Local first, by design
Many POS systems are a web page in disguise: no connection, no checkout. Here the application and its database run on your PC, and your hardware is connected directly to it. The internet is an extra, not a dependency.
- Keep selling and taking payments
- Keep scanning products
- Keep managing stock
- Keep printing receipts
- Keep using local terminals on your network (Pro)
- Keep sending restaurant orders to the kitchen (Pro)
What needs the internet — and what doesn’t
An honest breakdown.
Works offline
Checkout, barcode scanning, receipts, stock updates, customers, suppliers, local reports and local network terminals.
Needs internet
The initial download, paid licence activation, software updates, external integrations and the AI Business Assistant.
Protect your data
Because data is local, backups matter. Go and Pro include scheduled automatic backups and restore.
Why it matters
What a local database means day to day.
- No lost sales during outages.
- No waiting for a server to respond at the till.
- No cloud database required for normal operation.
- Your data on your premises, protected by automatic backups on paid plans.

Frequently asked questions
Does the POS need an internet connection to sell?
No. The database is stored locally on your Windows PC, so selling, scanning, receipts and stock updates work without internet.
When do I need the internet?
For the initial download, paid licence activation, updates, external integrations and the AI Business Assistant.
Is my data stored in the cloud?
No cloud database is used for normal local operation. Your business data is stored on your own computer. Go and Pro include automatic backup and restore tools.
Do extra tills work offline too?
On Pro, extra terminals, kitchen screens and waiter devices connect to the main PC over your local network, which does not require internet access.
Never close the till because of the router again.
