About FortyPOS

Built around the complete daily operating cycle

FortyPOS goes beyond recording a sale. It brings together the records that determine stock accuracy, cash control, customer balances, supplier obligations, staff accountability and business performance.

A business can begin with a simple single-outlet setup and adopt more advanced workflows—such as batches, multiple selling units, wholesale pricing, branches, permissions, recurring records and management reports—as its operations become more complex.
