Retail Express

Retail POS System for AU & NZ Stores

Slow checkouts, messy end-of-day counts, and stock that never matches the till kill a busy shop. Retail Express is retail POS software that rings up sales fast, takes the payments your customers use, and closes each register cleanly, with inventory and reporting on the same platform.

Common pain points

A weak retail POS system shows up at the till and at close

Queues grow when the till is slow

Staff hunting for products, re-keying card totals, or switching apps for laybys and vouchers stretch every sale when the shop is busy.

You cannot tell which till is wrong

When two drawers share one register, cash-up mismatches are hard to find and end-of-day takes longer than it should.

Stock and sales live in different places

A till that does not update inventory leaves you guessing what is on the shelf and overselling online or in another store.

How to choose the best POS system

Z01 Fast Checkout
Quick sales

Fast checkout that cuts wait times

Create a quick sale in a few steps: log in, add products by barcode scan, product code, or predictive product search, take payment, and print or email the receipt. Quick Products give each register one-tap access to bestsellers, ideal for busy periods and tills in each department. Learn more: See also POS barcode scan

Z02 Registers
Registers

Every register, tracked and balanced

Set up a separate register in Retail Express for each till (checkout), to track opening cash, see which till handled each sale, fix mismatches, and control receipt printer and EFTPOS hardware. Each store includes a Back Office Register for non-POS activity, plus an included additional register, with more available as you grow. Learn more: POS register management

Z03 Payments
Payments

Flexible payments customers actually use

Take full or partial payments across configured payment types, cash, EFTPOS, manual MOTO transactions, and buy-now-pay-later options including Afterpay Card and Zip. Process refunds against original sales or handle exceptions without adding wait time at the till. Learn more: POS payments at the till

Z04 Beyond Basic
Beyond cash & carry

More than a basic sale

Go beyond cash and carry with laybys and minimum deposits, gift vouchers and credit notes, promotional campaigns, cross-sells and upsells at the till, loyalty redemption, quotes, and account customer sales, without adding separate systems.

Z05 Cross Store
Cross-store

Sell from any store, without the runaround

When the product isn't in your store but stock exists elsewhere, staff can sell stock from another store directly at POS, fulfilling from the right location while the customer waits at the till. Learn more: Cross-store POS selling

Z06 Cash Up
Cash up

End-of-day cash up you can trust

Close each register with a structured cash-up process: count cash, review the cash summary, verify other payment methods, and submit, or place a cash-up on hold if you need to finish later. Clear register-level reporting means fewer surprises at end of day. Learn more: POS cash up

Retail Express

How it works

Step 1

Set up your stores and registers

Set up one register per till, payment types, Quick Products, and hardware (receipt printers, integrated EFTPOS) from POS Settings.

Step 2

Sell at the till

Staff log in, build the sale (scan, search, or quick-add), attach customers when needed, apply discounts or promotions, and take payment.

Step 3

Cash up and verify totals

Print or email invoices, cash up per register, and let sales data flow into inventory, reporting, and connected channels automatically.

Retail POS System for AU & NZ Stores FAQ

Answers for retailers in Australia and New Zealand.

Yes. Retail Express is a cloud retail POS system for AU & NZ product retailers. Staff scan products, take payments, print or email receipts, and update stock as each sale happens. Checkout, inventory, customers, and reporting sit in one platform, so what sells at the till shows everywhere else.

Not usually. A retail POS system is the software that runs checkout, stock, and reporting. Hardware means the PC or iPad, receipt printer, scanner, and EFTPOS terminal. Retail Express is the cloud retail POS software; you source compatible hardware separately. See POS software and POS hardware.

Yes. When you sell at the till, on-hand stock updates in real time across the back office and connected channels, so what you see is what is on the shelf. That live link between checkout and inventory is what basic cash-drawer tills miss. See inventory management.

Product retailers in AU and NZ who sell barcoded or SKU-based goods: boutiques, grocery, liquor, homewares, specialty retail, and multi-store groups. It is not table-service hospitality POS (no kitchen display or table plans). If you run a retail counter inside a cafe or restaurant, see cafe POS or restaurant POS. For one shop, see POS for small business.

Yes. Open Retail Express in the browser on an iPad or Windows PC at the till. Integrated EFTPOS and receipt printing often need a compatible Windows host as well as the tablet. See POS hardware and POS app for iPad.

Yes. Use a separate register for each till so you can track opening cash, see which till made each sale, fix mismatches, and set hardware per lane. Each store includes a Back Office Register plus one additional register, with more available as you grow. See POS registers.

For a normal cash-and-carry sale, staff log in, add products by scan or search, take payment, finish the sale, and print or email the receipt. Quick Products put bestsellers one tap away for busy periods. See POS barcode scan and POS payments.

Configure cash, integrated EFTPOS, manual MOTO/EFTPOS, Afterpay Card, Zip, and other payment types you enable. Split and partial payments work on a single sale. See POS payments and EFTPOS hardware.

Yes. Retail Express supports laybys with deposits and follow-up payments, plus creating and redeeming gift vouchers and credit notes at POS. Gift voucher settings can also link to Shopify Gift Cards for omnichannel redemption. See layby & payment plans and gift vouchers & store credit.

Yes, on eligible Windows setups. Offline POS lets staff keep scanning, taking payments, and printing receipts during an outage. Sales sync automatically when you are back online. Laybys, voucher redemption, loyalty, cash-up, and live stock lookup are not available offline.

Yes. If the item is not in your store but another location has stock, staff can sell it from that store at POS while the customer waits at the till. See cross-store POS selling.

Each register closes on its own: count cash, review the cash summary, check other payment methods, then submit. You can also put a cash-up on hold and finish it later. See POS cash up.

No. The same retail POS system works for one shop or many, with store-level registers, cross-store selling, staff access by store, and reporting across locations. See multi-store omnichannel and POS for small business.

Retail Express is a monthly subscription per store. Hardware and card processing are separate. See pricing.
