Khokhela POS · Windows first · Coming soon

The till that runs your shop.

Ring up sales, print or WhatsApp the slip, cash up at closing, and keep selling when a till loses its connection. Built for South African shops, in Rand, running on the shop’s Windows PC.

Be first to try it

The Khokhela till on Windows: one item in the basket with a discount, the total of R 49.72, and Cash, Card and Split buttons.

The Windows test build. Test data; shop details hidden.

What it already does

These are real screens from the Windows test build of Khokhela POS, not mock-ups. The figures are test sales, and the shop’s own name and address are hidden.

The till after a sale: Invoice saved, with a button to send the slip on WhatsApp.

Ring up a sale

Scan a barcode or search, set the quantity and any discount, and take cash, card, or split the payment. Discounts stay within the limits you set.

A printed slip with the item, discount, total and cash paid, and the khokhela mark at the bottom.

A clear slip, printed

Every sale gets a slip on a standard 80 mm slip printer. Your VAT number prints on it once it’s a valid South African VAT number.

A notice on the till: no connection to the shop server. Cash, card and EFT can be queued. Nothing has been lost.

Keeps selling when the connection drops

Sales are kept on the shop PC. If a till can’t reach it, the till keeps taking cash, card and EFT sales and syncs them when it’s back online.

A cash-up for one till: goods sold, cost of sales, gross profit, float, cash taken, expected in the drawer and counted.

Cash up at closing

Each till’s cash-up shows what was sold, the gross profit, and the cash expected in the drawer against what you counted.

Slips on WhatsApp

If the customer agrees, Khokhela opens WhatsApp on the till with the slip typed in. The cashier checks it and presses send. Khokhela doesn’t send messages for you.

Refunds that add up

Refund against the original sale, never more than was paid, and with a reason every time.

Stock as you sell

See how many are on hand while you ring up, and the value of your stock on any date.

Several tills, one shop PC

Tills on the shop’s network share one set of sales, stock and cash-ups on the shop PC.

Made for how South African shops work

  • Rand, to the cent. Totals, discounts and change are worked out in whole cents, so they always add up.
  • VAT number checked before it goes on a slip.
  • Sales are kept on the shop PC and sync when back online.
  • Cash, card, EFT and split payments are recorded on every sale.
  • Windows first. Khokhela runs on the shop’s Windows PC and Windows tills.

Questions

When can I use it?

We're building it now. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when it's ready for you to try.

What will it cost?

Pricing isn't set yet. People on the waitlist will hear first.

Which devices will it run on?

Windows first. Khokhela runs on a Windows PC in the shop, with Windows tills on the same network. We’re not promising other devices yet.

Do I need internet to sell?

No. Sales are kept on the shop PC. If a till loses its connection, it keeps taking cash, card and EFT sales and syncs them when it’s back online. Things like account sales, vouchers and lay-bys wait until it’s connected again.

Does Khokhela send WhatsApp messages for me?

No. When the customer agrees, Khokhela opens WhatsApp on the till with the slip typed in, and the cashier presses send.

What do you do with my email?

We only use it to tell you about Khokhela POS. You can ask us to delete it at any time. Read the privacy notice.
