FivePOS

POS system for stalls and night markets in Malaysia

A till that fits in your apron. Run your stall from the phone already in your pocket - no terminal to buy, no monthly bill to start, and it keeps working when the night-market signal does not.

Built for hawker stalls, pasar malam traders, food trucks and weekend market sellers.

Start free - free forever, no card, no contract.

Sound familiar?

The cash tin tells you nothing

You know what is in the tin at the end of the night. You do not know what sold, what ran out at seven, or whether Tuesday is worth opening for.

A terminal costs a good month

Thousands of ringgit for hardware, before a single sale. For most stalls that is the whole reason there is no system at all.

The queue moves at the speed of mental arithmetic

Adding three items and giving change while six people wait is how mistakes get made, and mistakes come out of your own pocket.

Signal at the market is a rumour

Anything that stops working when the connection drops is worse than useless during the dinner rush.

What changes

  • Sell on the phone you own - tap the items and it does the arithmetic, on any Android phone, iPhone, iPad or tablet you already have.
  • Keeps selling with no signal - a progressive web app, so orders go through while the line is down and sync themselves when it returns.
  • RM 0 to find out - the Free plan is free forever and needs no card.
  • Closing figures in one tap - what sold, what it made, and what is running low.
  • Let the queue order itself - put a QR code on the stall and customers order from their own phones while you keep cooking.

Questions

I only have a phone. Is that enough?

Yes. A phone is the whole setup. If you later want a bigger screen at the stall, the same account opens on a tablet with nothing to move across.

What happens when there is no internet at the market?

You keep selling. Orders are saved on the device and sync automatically once the connection comes back, so nothing is lost and nothing has to be re-keyed.

Do I need an SSM registration to use it?

Not to run your stall on FivePOS - you can register as an individual with no SSM. You will need registered business details later if you want to accept card and online payments through a Malaysian payment gateway.

Your stall, on the phone in your pocket
