Retail Express
A till that cannot see your stock leaves you reconciling spreadsheets and overselling. The best point of sale software keeps checkout and inventory in one place, and that is exactly what Retail Express does for product retailers.
Common pain points
Feature lists look similar until you test checkout, stock, and reporting on your real products.
A till that works for one shop can break when you add stores, registers, Shopify, or head-office reporting.
Low headline pricing often hides per-register fees, integration add-ons, and offshore support when you need help on a busy Saturday.
Retail Express
The best point of sale software does more than take payment. Retail Express links checkout to live stock, customers, purchasing, and reporting in one subscription, so you are not gluing a till app to a separate stock spreadsheet. Every sale updates inventory and reporting in real time. See retail POS software.

Strong point of sale software takes payment however the customer wants to pay, without slowing the queue. Retail Express handles split and partial payments on one sale across cash, EFTPOS, manual MOTO/EFTPOS entries, and buy-now-pay-later with Afterpay and Zip. Refunds process against the original sale. See POS payments and buy now pay later at POS.

Point of sale software should never turn a customer away because stock is in another shop. In Retail Express, staff can sell stock from another outlet right at the till and fulfil from the location that has it. Stores can raise, dispatch, and receive transfers to move stock where it sells. See cross-store POS selling and stock transfers.

Point of sale software that stops when the connection drops costs you sales. Retail Express offline POS lets staff keep scanning products, taking payments, and printing receipts during an outage, then syncs every sale automatically when you are back online. See offline POS.

The best point of sale software connects to the tools you already run. Retail Express links to Shopify for online orders and stock sync, and to Xero and MYOB for sales and stock journals, so you are not re-keying data between systems. See the important retail integrations.

Retailers choose Retail Express because our point of sale software brings checkout, live inventory, purchasing, customer data, and reporting into one platform. Instead of switching between separate tools or spreadsheets, your team can make a sale, update stock, and see the result in reporting from the same system. It is built specifically for AU & NZ product retail, with local support and integrations for tools including Shopify, Xero, and MYOB.
Retail Express POS software gives you a dependable foundation at one shop, then supports the next stage when you add registers, stores, ecommerce, or more advanced inventory workflows. Your sales and stock data stay in one platform as the business changes, helping you avoid replacing your system each time you grow. See multi-store retail and Shopify ecommerce.
The best POS software depends on your retail workflow. Retail Express is a strong choice for product retailers who need fast checkout, inventory that updates with every sale, purchase orders, reporting, and connections to their accounting or ecommerce tools. It is not designed as a full hospitality system for table service or kitchen workflows. A demo lets you test whether it fits your products, store count, and daily processes.
Point of sale software is the till program staff use at checkout: add or scan products, take payments, print receipts, and update stock. It is not the EFTPOS terminal or receipt printer; those are hardware that plug into the software. Retail Express is cloud point of sale software for AU & NZ product retail.
The best point of sale software for retail includes checkout, stock, supplier orders, and clear reports in one platform. Retail Express is one subscription for shop floor and back office, built for AU & NZ product retailers. See retail POS software.
POS software is the full retail program. Some vendors offer a phone app; Retail Express runs in a browser on PC or iPad for a full feature set (inventory, purchasing, reporting). For the app vs cloud comparison, see POS app vs cloud POS.
No. POS software is the till program (Retail Express). A POS machine, POS terminal, or EFTPOS device is hardware for payments and printing. Most shops need both: Retail Express as software plus compatible hardware from our POS hardware guide and EFTPOS hardware.
With Retail Express, core inventory is in the same subscription as POS for product retail. You are not buying a till app and a separate stock system by default. Compare tiers on the pricing page.
Yes. Retail Express links to Shopify for orders and stock, with inventory sync between online and stores.
Retail Express point of sale software is a monthly subscription per store. Card processing and hardware are separate. See pricing.
Some tools advertise free POS, but full product retail (barcodes, stock, reporting, accounting links) usually needs a paid subscription. Retail Express offers tiered plans for AU & NZ retailers; see pricing. There is no forever-free tier for the full platform.
Retail point of sale software is till software for product shops: barcodes, variants, inventory, laybys, promotions, and multi-store reporting. It is different from hospitality POS (tables, kitchen, tabs). Retail Express is retail point of sale software for AU & NZ product retailers.
