We built the platform shops were missing.

PointFlow started with a frustration we kept running into.

Everywhere we looked — corner shops, pharmacies, grocers, market traders — it was the same setup. A till that only rang up sales. A laptop with three half-finished spreadsheets. And a carrier bag of receipts waiting for the accountant at year-end.

None of it talked to each other. You'd sell on the till, write it down again for stock, then add it up a third time for the books — hours every week, and still nobody was sure what the shop actually made.

The other thing we couldn't get past: how much software assumes the internet is always there. It isn't — not in a power cut, not in a busy market with patchy signal. A till that stops when the Wi-Fi drops isn't really a till.

So we built PointFlow around two stubborn ideas: one honest system for the whole shop, and it has to keep working when everything else doesn't. Sell once, and the stock, the books and the day's takings move together. Lose the connection, and you keep trading.

What we hold to

• One source of truth. Sell something once and everything else updates itself.
• Works when the world doesn't. Offline-first, so a dropped connection never costs a sale.
• No lock-in. Your data is yours. Export it whenever you like.
• Built for here. Pounds, UK VAT and mobile money — for the UK and Ghana, not bolted on.
