Trying SellyPOS with a few products
FreeWhat SellyPOS does
Staff, access and approvals that fit how your shop runs
Your staff work at your till, so SellyPOS knows who each person is, what they may do, and whether they earn commission on their sales. You give each person only the screens and actions their job needs, and every sensitive change is written down.
Every shop has more than one pair of hands. A cashier takes the next customer, a manager signs off a refund, and the owner wants to know who did what on a busy Saturday. This page explains how SellyPOS keeps each of them in their own lane, from the first sign-in to the end of the month.
You do not need to learn the whole software before the first sale. A cashier types a four-digit PIN to take over the till, and a manager's approval appears over the sale without the cart being lost. Staff can change their own password or PIN, and the administrator is set up once, at the start.

Highlights
- See what each person sold and gave back See what each person sold, and who sold the most Each person has a row with their sales, net sales, average sale, discounts and returns. A cashier sees their own row, and anyone allowed to see the whole team sees each person's row.
- Write down who came in and who left Mark your team present for the day in a single step Mark everyone present asks you first. It leaves out a person on an hourly rate who has no entry time yet, and the question says how many were left out.
- Step away from the till and come back to your cart Step away from the till, and your cart is still there when you come back Lock the till and the cart, the held sales and the open till session stay exactly as they were. The same person unlocks it, or another person can switch in.
- Get approval at the counter without losing the sale Get a manager's approval at the counter without losing the sale A window opens over the sale, the cart stays as it was, and the manager types their own password to approve. If the password is wrong, the window stays open so they can try again.
- Give each person the access their job needs Set the administrator's password and a four-digit PIN at setup The administrator password must have at least eight characters, and the PIN must be exactly four digits. The PIN is not the default way to sign in until you switch that on.
- Pay your team and keep their balances straight See who is owed what, and pay them from one page The Pay page lists who is owed what. Choose one person and a date, or pay the whole team, and one sentence says what will leave which account.

Sign in at the till in a moment
Pick your name, type your PIN, and the till is yours. The first sign-in after the till starts still asks for a password.
- Pick your name from the list, then type your PIN or password
- Take over the till with a four-digit PIN, after one password sign-in
- Change your own password or PIN, without asking the administrator
-
Step away from the till and come back to your cart
A till left alone, a long day, a wrong PIN. These controls keep the cart, the held sales and the till as they were, and keep the wrong person out.
- Step away from the till, and your cart is still there when you come back
- The till locks itself when left alone, but not while a payment is open
- Too many wrong sign-ins lock that person out, on this computer only
-
Get approval at the counter without losing the sale
Some changes need a second person. You decide how far each role can go, and by default the person who asks cannot approve their own request.
- Get a manager's approval at the counter without losing the sale
- By default, the person who asks cannot approve their own refund or void
- Decide how far each staff role can change stock without a second person
-
Give each person the access their job needs
Set up who can do what before the first shift, and change it when people move on. Nobody sees a screen or button they do not need, and the last active administrator cannot be removed by mistake.
- Set the administrator's password and a four-digit PIN at setup
- Give each person only the screens and actions their job needs
- One Owner role, so Owner means one set of powers
-
See what each person sold and gave back
Managers look at the numbers by person, not only by day. Each report has one row for each person, and on the sales report a cashier sees their own row.
- See what each person sold, and who sold the most
- See who took goods back, and how the money went back
- See who gave each discount, and who voided a sale
-
Check who approved, who signed in and what changed
The record keeps each sensitive action with its before and after values. Nobody can change or remove those records from inside the application, not even an administrator.
- A record of every sensitive change, with what it was before and after
- See who approved what, and who got a sign-in wrong, by person
- A locked-out sign-in stays locked, even after an older backup is restored
-
Write down who came in and who left
Attendance works one day at a time. Set the holidays once, then mark your team in with a tap and put right anything you missed.
- Set the weekly holiday, the working day and the holidays in one place
- Mark your team present for the day in a single step
- Write down when each person came in and left with one tap
-
Pay your team and keep their balances straight
Each person's pay starts from a date you choose, and the earlier terms stay in their history. From there you pay, check the statement and settle everything when someone leaves.
- Change how one person is paid, from a date you choose
- See who is owed what, and pay them from one page
- See each advance, payslip and payment for one person, line by line
-
Pay salespeople commission on each sale
Turn commission on in Setup, then each salesperson earns at the shop's rate or a rate of their own. Commission is held for a set number of days, then paid on a payslip, and a void takes it back.
- Turn on commission for your salespeople, and decide each one's rate
- Pay each salesperson a percentage of a sale, or a plain amount per sale
- See what commission is payable now, and pay it on a payslip
Set up the sign-in and the roles first, then add your staff one at a time. Each sensitive change is written down as it happens, so you can look back at any day and see who did what.
