    automatic

Your whole business, compliant

Built with Beninese accountants and entrepreneurs. Restaurant, bar or shop: the screens follow your line of business — and each one keeps DGI compliance in mind.

DGI compliance

DGI Z-Report

Every end-of-day close generates its compliant Z report, archived automatically and ready to hand to your accountant or an auditor.

IN EVERY PLAN
DGI compliance

Tax groups A–F

Each product is tied to its e-MECeF group (VAT, exempt, specific tax…). The right tax lands on every invoice, no manual calculation.

IN EVERY PLAN
DGI compliance

Issuance tracked end to end

Every invoice goes to the DGI as soon as you take payment. If the e-MECeF service is unreachable, it queues and issues itself once the service is back. You follow every issuance in the Invoices screen.

IN EVERY PLAN
Day to day

Counter sales & sales log

Ring up, the normalized invoice goes out with its QR code. Daily takings and a log of every sale, exports ready for your accountant.

IN EVERY PLAN
Day to day

Cash, Mobile Money, card

MTN MoMo, Moov Money, Celtiis Cash, Coris Money, card, bank transfer: every payment is recorded with its method. Add your own, find them again in your reports.

IN EVERY PLAN
Day to day

You keep selling with no network

The connection drops, the register keeps going. The sale is captured on the device and joins your open orders when the network is back, once. A payment cut off mid-way resumes on its own.

IN EVERY PLAN
Dining room

Tables & floor plan

A plan of your dining room, orders tied to tables, several checks per table.
