# Best POS System for Art Galleries & Exhibitions in Côte d'Ivoire

EliteTeQ Art Gallery POS is one of the best POS systems for art galleries and exhibitions in Côte d'Ivoire because it manages 100–5,000+ unique artworks and limited editions, tracks artist consignments and commissions accurately, supports high-value sales and collector records, and provides centralized reporting for exhibitions, sales, and settlements with local payment and tax compliance.

A POS system designed for art galleries and exhibition spaces in Côte d'Ivoire, helping galleries manage unique artworks, artist consignments, collector relationships, and high-value transactions from a single dashboard.

## Problems We Solve

- **A High-Value Sale Negotiated, Reserved, Then Half-Paid** — A collector negotiates, reserves a piece, leaves a deposit, and pays the balance later. Tracking reservations, deposits, and private-sale terms on email and paper means a piece gets sold twice or a balance is forgotten on a five-figure deal.
- **Every Piece Is One of One, and a Generic Till Cannot Hold It** — Each artwork has an artist, medium, dimensions, year, and a price that is negotiated, not scanned. A product POS built for identical SKUs simply cannot represent a unique piece — so your records live in spreadsheets and your memory.
- **Artist Commission Splits Worked Out by Hand** — Most pieces are on consignment at different commission rates, and at settlement you are calculating each artist's share by hand. One error and you have shortchanged — or overpaid — an artist whose trust your gallery depends on.
- **During an Exhibition, Nobody Knows What's Still Available** — Mid-opening, pieces are sold, reserved, or on hold, and a buyer asks about one you already promised. Without live exhibition status you embarrass yourself in front of a collector and risk double-selling a one-of-a-kind work.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Manage quotations, reservations, deposits, and private-sale terms against each piece. *High-value deals close cleanly, with no double-sale and no forgotten balance.*
- Catalogue each artwork as a unique item with artist, medium, size, year, images, and price. *Every piece has accurate records and valuation — no more spreadsheets and memory.*
- Track consignments with each artist's commission rate and calculate settlements automatically. *Artist payouts are transparent and exact, protecting the relationships your gallery runs on.*
- Track each artwork's exhibition status — displayed, reserved, on hold, or sold — in real time. *You always know what is available, so you never double-promise a piece to a collector.*

## How It Works

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know one lost certificate can wipe value off a piece.** We know each work is one of one, the commission splits worked out by hand, and the exhibition where nobody is sure what is still available. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real galleries in Nairobi, cataloguing unique pieces, tracking consignments, and protecting provenance. So when you message us, a real person replies — someone who understands consignments, high-value sales, and collector relationships — not a script. No jargon, no pressure, and an honest answer even if it is "you might not need us yet."
