Touch screen, offline mode, VAT compliance, real cost: the criteria that actually matter when equipping a shop.
The first instinct when shopping for a till is to compare prices. That's often the worst place to start: two solutions at the same monthly price can cost you one to three times as much over three years, once hardware, training, support and updates are counted.
Start with offline mode instead. In Morocco, connection drops happen regularly, and a till that stops during rush hour costs money immediately. Ask for a demo with the Wi-Fi switched off — it's the most revealing test you can run.
Next, check invoicing compliance. Your invoices need the legally expected details and correct VAT handling. Imported software that hasn't been adapted to the Moroccan context will leave you correcting documents by hand.
Also look at who answers when something breaks. Support that speaks your language, during the hours your shop is open, is worth more than ten features you'll never use.
Finally, ask about data migration. Your products, prices and customers already exist somewhere — in old software or a spreadsheet. If they can't be imported, you're starting from zero, and that's weeks of typing.
