For spaza shops & superettes
The POS built for quick tills and long queues
Fast scanning, and it runs in a browser on the PC you already have. Add the desktop app to keep selling through load-shedding. Built for the way township retail trades.
The real screen
The till your shop gets.
Not a drawing. This is a capture of the shipped till set up for a spaza: twenty quick keys across six aisles, rung fast with no picture to hunt for.
Quick keys again, text only, twenty of them across six aisles. The lines here turn over too fast to keep a picture for each one, so the grid is built to be read rather than looked at.

Built to keep the queue moving
The basics of running a high-volume, small-basket shop, handled without extra setup.
Faster than the queue
Scan, add, next customer. The till keeps pace at month-end, pension day, and school-morning rush.
Sells through load-shedding
With offline mode (Starter plan and above), sales process locally on the device and sync later. No spinner, no cash-only sign.
No special hardware
A standard PC, a thermal receipt printer, a USB scanner. Abosto runs on equipment you can buy anywhere, and offline runs on Windows.
Simple stock control
See what is selling and what is running out, with reorder points that warn you before the shelf is empty.
Offline selling is available on the Starter, Professional and Enterprise plans, on Windows. Start on the free plan while you decide. How offline-first works →
