Point of Sale for Hardware Stores
Tough Enough for Tools. Smart Enough for Stock. Reliable Enough for You.
Managing a hardware store means handling everything from nails and bolts to copper pipes, paint, pallets, deliveries, and contractors all while keeping stock secure and customers happy. Unipos Point of Sale is purpose-built to help hardware stores run smoother, track stock tighter, and reduce risk on every transaction.
With features designed specifically for the retail hardware industry, our system goes beyond the till to cover deliveries, security, telesales, and even fractional item sales all in one integrated platform.
Security Checkpoint
Worried about duplicate invoices or fake reprints being used to remove stock from your store? Unipos solves this with a secure checkpoint feature.
Each invoice, delivery note, or collection slip is printed with a unique barcode. At the security point, the document must be scanned before stock leaves. If a duplicate, reprint, or forged slip is scanned, the system immediately blocks the transaction protecting your bottom line.
