£0/month Starter POS

A complete retail till for one location.

Free ecommerce website

Sell at the counter and online.

  • Customers pay by card at checkout through PalletPOS Payments
  • Online orders land in PalletPOS, next to your counter sales
  • Want your own domain, such as shop.yourcompany.com? That comes with Retail and above

Convenience and grocery

Fast barcode checkout from a catalogue stored on the till, so scans don't wait on the internet.

Independent and specialist shops

Hold a sale while a customer decides, serve the next one, and recall it with the original prices.

Local food retailers

Put your range online at your own palletpos.com address and take orders without a separate web shop.
