What drives the cost
Number of branches
Each branch needs set-up, hardware testing and training.
Offline capability
Billing without internet requires a local database and sync.
FBR integration
Required for qualifying retailers and adds integration work.
Industry features
Restaurants need kitchen tickets; pharmacies need batches and expiry.
Hardware
Printers, scanners, cash drawers and tablets are a separate budget line.
What should be included in the price
Whatever level you choose, the proposal should list deliverables, milestones, warranty and ownership in writing. Compare that list across quotes; our POS software page shows a typical scope.
How long it takes
A configured POS goes live in 3–5 weeks; a custom multi-branch POS takes 8–12 weeks.
Timelines depend as much on how quickly decisions and content arrive from your side as on development speed.
Costs people forget
- Cloud hosting and database costs, billed monthly by the provider
- Third-party licences or API usage fees (SMS, maps, payment gateways)
- Data cleaning before migration
- Staff training time
- Ongoing maintenance and security updates after the warranty period
How to get better value
- Write down the outcome you want, not just the features
- Start with the smallest version that delivers that outcome, then expand
- Compare proposals on the same scope, not on the headline price
- Make sure code, accounts and content will be in your name
