A good POS in Ghana is not just a receipt printer — it must handle **inventory, staff roles, MoMo, and spotty internet**.
Must-have features
1. **Mobile money & cash** — split payments, daily reconciliation 2. **Offline or low-data mode** — sales don't stop when data drops 3. **Inventory alerts** — low stock, expiry for pharmacies 4. **Reports** — daily sales, best sellers, tax-ready exports 5. **Multi-location** — if you plan a second branch
Off-the-shelf vs custom
| | SaaS POS | Custom (Dikoder Tech) | |---|----------|------------------------| | Speed to launch | Fast | 4–8 weeks | | Ghana workflows | Often limited | Built for your process | | MoMo depth | Varies | Full control | | Long-term cost | Monthly fees | You own the system |
Schools, restaurants, and pharmacies often outgrow generic tools — that's when custom wins.
