Number of modules
A POS with stock control costs less than one that also handles credit customers, purchase orders and multi-branch transfers.
Pricing you can plan around
Hosting is priced per plan. Development work is quoted per project — because a five-page website and a multi-branch POS system have nothing in common except the word "software". Every quotation is written and fixed before work starts.

How we price
What moves a quotation up or down
So you can see where the money goes before you ask for a number.
Users and roles
More user types means more permission logic, more screens and more testing.
Integrations
Mobile money, SMS gateways, payment processors and accounting exports each add development and testing time.
Data migration
Moving clean data from Excel is quick. Reconstructing years of inconsistent records takes real work.
Design depth
A well-built standard interface is affordable. A fully bespoke designed interface costs more and is sometimes worth it.
Support level
Included handover support versus a monthly plan with guaranteed response times and change hours.
Pricing FAQ
Money questions
We would rather answer these openly than have you guess.
Request a quoteBecause the same label covers very different builds. A POS for one shop and a POS for five branches with credit customers are not the same product. Rather than quote a headline number and revise it later, we scope first and give you one fixed figure.
Typically a deposit to start, one or more milestone payments during development, and the balance on delivery. For larger projects we agree a payment schedule tied to phases.
Hosting and domain renewals, and a maintenance plan if you take one. Both are optional and quoted separately, and we tell you about them before you commit — not afterwards.
No. The first conversation and the written quotation are free. Detailed system analysis documentation for large projects is quoted separately if you want it as a deliverable.
Yes, and we often recommend it. We build in phases so you get a working core early and add to it as the budget allows.
We take circumstances into account and can spread payments over a longer period. Ask us and be honest about the budget you actually have.
