The problem

Sari-sari store owners across the Philippines run their business out of a notebook — sales, stock, and utang (customer credit) tracked by hand, at a counter with patchy or no internet.

Who it's for

Sari-sari store owners and counter staff.

What it does

  • Works fully offline — no internet connection or account required to start selling.
  • Three-tap checkout for cash, GCash, or utang, with partial payments supported.
  • Utang tracking that automatically keeps a running balance per customer.
  • Barcode scanning (EAN-13, UPC, Code 128) for fast product lookup.
  • Low-stock alerts and cost/price management.
  • Full-screen QR code display for GCash payments.
  • Sales analytics by day, week, or month.

How we designed it

  • Built offline-first from day one, not bolted on later — a sari-sari store can't depend on a signal.
  • Checkout is three taps, on purpose. A busy counter has no patience for a complicated POS.
  • Utang is a first-class feature, not a workaround — it's how a lot of neighborhood trade actually works.
