Sell more efficiently - even if you're offline

Retail Express' front-end interface is powerful yet intuitive, allowing your entire team to make the most of the POS. And, it's uber-efficient. There's an Offline POS Mode so you can continue selling — even when your connection goes down. You can process transactions and orders quickly while easily processing returns and exchanges without hassle. And a fast Google-like predictive search handles large SKUs and even leverages smart cross/upsell functions to help you sell more.

The all-inclusive Retail Express package lets you do more. While other software systems are inflexible, Retail Express allows you to set up variable pricing and discounts. You can run cross-device, store and channel promotions to deliver effective, highly personalised loyalty campaigns. Plus, all your customer, sales and product data is stored and synced across every store and channel, so you’ll never run into troublesome data discrepancies.

“We just reached a point where our previous system...was limiting our growth, customer experience and efficiency. As we expanded there was a need for a system that could handle the complexity of multiple store operations”
Corey Davison, Operations Manager | Johnny's Furniture

Adjust & control complex SKUs & supply chain issues without drama

Making your back-end work for you is our #1 goal. Our software can simplify handling a large or complex product portfolio — and more. It can edit product and stock details, track and adjust inventory, and transfer stock between stores. It can manage special orders and pre-orders — and view live ETAs of supply chain POs. And it can set up Click & Collect based on live stock availability.

And the really big deal? Our software operates in real-time. All inventory levels (whether products are in/out of stock) Click & Collect orders, stock in transit and products currently on order (or across your whole supply chain) are updated in real-time.

Retail Express gives you the advanced technology every retailer needs right now to future-proof their business.

"We have the real-time data and features available to us to deliver consistently excellent customer service"

Native integrations with Xero, MYOB, various payment systems and other cloud-based software mean you can focus more on your business and know that your data is always accurate and centralised.

Retail Express allows us to get deep insights into the historic sales performance of all items in our portfolio ...we’re able to more accurately make decisions on what to buy, in which quantities and when for each store"
