## Problems We Solve

- **A Warranty Claim on a $2,000 Body and No Record** — A customer returns a high-value camera insisting it is under warranty. You are hunting receipts for the purchase date and coverage. Without a record tied to the serial, you either eat a claim you should not or refuse a fair one and lose a serious customer.
- **A Customer Wants a Specific Body, Mount, and Lens Combo — and You're Guessing Stock** — Bodies, lenses, mounts, and adapters all have to match, and a photographer knows exactly what they want. Tracked by eye, you cannot confirm the exact model is in stock, you quote the wrong compatible lens, and a high-value sale slips to the shop that could answer faster.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Tie warranty start, duration, and coverage to each item's serial, with expiry alerts. *You confirm or deny any claim in seconds, and reach out before coverage lapses to offer an upgrade.*
- Track gear by model, mount, and spec as variants, with live stock and compatibility at your fingertips. *You confirm the exact body and lens instantly, quote right, and keep the high-value sale in the shop.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Products, Rentals & Services** — Add camera gear, variants, rental rates, and services.
2. **Sell, Rent & Service** — Process sales, rentals, repairs, and warranty jobs.
3. **Track, Optimize & Grow** — Use insights to manage inventory, pricing, and utilization.

## Running a Business in Port Louis

Port Louis sits in Port Louis District and is Mauritius' capital, main port and financial centre.

Port Louis operates in one of the region's most formalised business environments: VAT administration by the Mauritius Revenue Authority is well established, card payment is routine rather than exceptional, and customers expect a proper fiscal receipt. Trade is conducted in English and French, and the city combines a working port and financial district with cruise-linked visitor spending that produces sharp seasonal peaks.

The port, the financial district and cruise-call visitor spending create three different customer patterns in one city, and a proper fiscal receipt is expected on every sale. The binding constraint is absorbing cruise-day surges without losing receipting discipline.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Port Louis?** EliteTeQ POS prices in MUR (Rs) and records Juice, card and cash against the same sale, so camera stores businesses in Port Louis close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to MRA requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for camera stores businesses in Port Louis?** Yes. Port Louis sits in Port Louis District, and a POS here has to issue a proper VAT receipt, take card as the default tender and absorb cruise-call peaks. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — MUR pricing, Juice recorded against each sale, MRA-ready tax invoicing, and full offline operation so trading continues when power or network does not.
- **Can I track warranties per item?** Yes, warranty information is linked directly to each serial-numbered item in your inventory. When a camera or lens is sold, you can record the warranty start date, duration, and coverage terms against that specific unit, so staff can instantly confirm coverage during a customer inquiry or return without searching through paper records. Warranty expiry alerts can also help you proactively reach out to customers whose coverage is approaching its end, creating an opportunity to offer extended protection or a trade-in upgrade.
- **Can the POS track camera and lens serial numbers?** Yes, every camera body and lens in your inventory can be tracked individually by serial number. When a unit is received, sold, rented, or returned, its serial number is logged against that transaction, giving you a complete history of where each item has been and who handled it. This level of traceability is especially valuable for high-value equipment, making it straightforward to verify authenticity, handle warranty claims, and resolve disputes over condition.
- **Does it support camera and lens rentals?** Yes, rental pricing, deposits, and returns are fully supported within the platform. You can configure time-based rental rates for individual cameras, lenses, and accessories, collect and hold security deposits at checkout, and process returns with automated condition checks to determine whether the deposit should be released or applied to damages. The system keeps rental stock separate from sales inventory so you always have an accurate count of what is available for hire at any given time.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know one lens can be worth a month's rent.** We know the exact body-and-mount combo you cannot confirm in stock, the rental lens that comes back with fungus, and the warranty claim on a $2,000 body with no record. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real camera and photography retailers in Nairobi, tracking serials, running rentals with deposits, and logging repairs.
