For small shops and market stands

Ring it up, count the drawer, and know what sold.

Scan or tap items on the Register, take cash, a card on a reader, or the customer's own phone by QR code, and close each drawer with a count. Pickup orders from your online menu land on the same Register.

What gets in the way, and what changes

A cash drawer that never matches the day

Two people work the counter, the drawer is $20 short at close, and there is no way to tell whose shift it was.

With Stacwork

Each person opens a cash drawer with a float and closes it with a count, and you see sales by employee with each drawer over or short.

Pickup orders taken on a notepad by the phone

A regular calls to set aside two candles, someone writes it down, and the note is gone by the time she walks in.

With Stacwork

Put a menu online for pickup. Orders are paid by card when placed and land on the Register for you to mark ready.

Running out of the thing everyone asks for

The candle that always sells sells out on a Saturday, and the reorder only happens when someone remembers.

With Stacwork Team and up

Track stock with reorder levels and supplier details, and when an item hits its reorder level, Stacwork creates a restock task.

How it runs

One Saturday customer, start to paid

A regular stops in for a candle, a mug, and a greeting card.
