An IT-retail-ready POS system designed for computer stores in East London, helping operators sell, service, and manage hardware accurately from one dashboard.

## Problems We Solve

- **Cables, Drives, and Chargers Walk Out Untracked** — Accessories are your steady margin, but they are small, fast-moving, and easy to lose count of. The mouse display empties, the popular SSD is "out" when a customer wants it, and at stock-take the numbers never match — shrinkage you cannot even pinpoint.
- **A Warranty Claim and No Record to Stand On** — A customer returns with a failed drive insisting it is under warranty. You are flipping through receipts and supplier emails trying to confirm the purchase date and coverage. Without a warranty record tied to the serial, you either eat a claim you should not, or refuse a valid one and lose the customer.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Track every device by serial number and spec from intake to sale, so the exact unit and its warranty are recorded at checkout. *You hand over the right machine every time and warranty claims resolve cleanly, with no guessing.*
- Run sales and repair ticketing in one system, with parts, labour, and service history linked to each customer and device. *A returning customer's purchase and repair history is in one place, and the counter and bench finally work together.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Products & Services** — Add hardware, accessories, repair services, and suppliers.
2. **Sell, Repair & Support** — Process sales, repairs, warranties, and technical services.
3. **Track, Optimize & Grow** — Use insights to optimize pricing, inventory, and services.

- **Computer & Hardware Sales POS** — Sell laptops, desktops, servers, and components.
- **Serial Number Tracking** — Track serial numbers, IMEI, and device specifications.
- **Repair & Service Management** — Log diagnostics, repairs, parts, and technician work.

## Running a Business in East London

East London sits in Eastern Cape Province and is a coastal port and manufacturing city.

East London combines a working port with vehicle and component manufacturing and a domestic coastal holiday trade, giving it both steady industrial supply demand and seasonal hospitality peaks. Businesses benefit from handling invoicing and credit accounts as comfortably as fast retail service, and grid interruptions make offline operation necessary.

A working port and component manufacturing sit alongside a domestic coastal holiday trade, producing steady industrial demand and sharp seasonal peaks. The binding constraint is handling account customers and holiday-season retail without two separate systems.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in East London?** EliteTeQ POS prices in ZAR (R) and records SnapScan, card and cash against the same sale, so computer stores businesses in East London close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to SARS requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for computer stores businesses in East London?** Yes. East London sits in Eastern Cape Province, and a POS here has to invoice industrial clients and run seasonal holiday hospitality on the same system. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — ZAR pricing, SnapScan recorded against each sale, SARS-ready tax invoicing, and full offline operation so trading continues when power or network does not.
- **Can the POS track serial numbers and IMEI?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS tracks each device individually by serial number or IMEI throughout its entire lifecycle in your store. When a unit is received into inventory, the identifier is recorded against that stock item, so you can pinpoint exactly which physical device was sold, returned, or sent out for repair at any time. This level of traceability is essential for computer stores handling high-value goods, warranty claims, and theft prevention, giving you a complete audit trail from purchase order to customer receipt.
- **Can I manage accessories and peripherals?** Yes, accessories and peripherals such as cables, cases, chargers, mice, keyboards, and storage drives are fully supported within the same inventory system as your main product lines. You can set reorder points for fast-moving accessories, bundle them with computers or laptops as part of a sale, and track their stock levels across multiple locations or display cases. This means your team always knows what is on hand and can upsell confidently without leaving the point-of-sale screen.
- **Is it suitable for IT shops and computer distributors?** Yes, EliteTeQ is built to handle the full range of computer retail and IT reseller operations, from a single-location computer shop to a multi-branch IT distributor managing trade and retail customers simultaneously. The platform supports different customer pricing tiers, purchase order management with supplier lead times, serial-level stock control, and service workflows, covering the distinct needs of both over-the-counter retail and business-to-business supply. Whether you sell walk-in to consumers or fulfil bulk orders for corporate clients, the same system manages your inventory, invoicing, and reporting in one place.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We have sold the wrong identical laptop too.** We know the warranty claim with no record to stand on, and the counter and the repair bench running on separate notebooks. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real computer shops in Nairobi, tracking serials, linking sales to repairs, and chasing accessory shrinkage.
