# Coin Shop POS for Shanghai Numismatic & Bullion Dealers

Coin and numismatic shops in Shanghai require a POS system that manages rare coins, graded collectibles, bullion pricing, consignments, and secure high-value transactions accurately. EliteTeQ Numismatic POS is built specifically for coin and bullion retailers to track inventory, consignments, pricing, and sales from a single purpose-built platform.

Built for coin and numismatic shops in Shanghai to buy, sell, and manage coins and bullion efficiently and securely.

## Problems We Solve

- **A Graded MS-70 and a Circulated Coin as One SKU** — The same coin in different grades is worth wildly different amounts, and tracked together you sell a certified piece at a common-coin price. Without grade and cert number on the record, a sharp buyer walks away with your margin.
- **High-Value Coins and No Audit Trail** — Rare coins and bullion are small, valuable, and a target for fraud and loss. Without role controls and an audit trail of who bought, sold, and priced what, accountability is fuzzy and an expensive piece can simply vanish.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- Track each coin individually with its grade and condition, so a certified piece is never the same record as a circulated one. *Every coin sells at its true value and you never hand a graded coin away at a common price.*
- Keep role-based access and an audit trail of every buy, sale, and price change on rare items. *Accountability is clear on every high-value coin, and losses and fraud risk drop.*

## How It Works

1. **Catalog Coins & Bullion** — Add coins with grade, certification, images, and pricing.
2. **Buy, Sell or Consign** — Process direct sales, bullion trades, or consignments.
3. **Track, Learn & Optimize** — Use insights to refine pricing and inventory strategy.

## Features

- **Unique Coin & Bullion Inventory** — Track rare coins, sets, and bullion individually.
- **Grading & Certification Tracking** — Store coin grades and certification numbers.
- **Bullion Pricing Management** — Manage gold and silver pricing with flexibility.
- **Consignment Management** — Manage consignors, commissions, and payouts.

## Running a Business in Shanghai

Shanghai sits in Shanghai Municipality and is China's largest commercial and financial centre.

Chinese retail runs on QR-code mobile wallets to an extent unmatched anywhere: customers scan to pay by default and cash is rarely used, so a till that cannot generate and reconcile wallet QR payments is not usable here. Invoicing operates through the fapiao system, where official tax invoices are issued under a state-controlled regime rather than printed freely. Simplified Chinese product naming and receipting are baseline requirements.

Customers scan to pay by default and cash is rarely used, while invoicing runs through the state-controlled fapiao system rather than freely printed receipts. The binding constraint is generating and reconciling wallet QR payments while issuing fapiao correctly — a till that cannot do both is unusable here.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- **What currency and payment methods does EliteTeQ POS support in Shanghai?** EliteTeQ POS prices in CNY (¥) and records Alipay, card and cash against the same sale, so coin shops businesses in Shanghai close the day on one set of reconciled totals instead of three. Tax invoices are produced to STA requirements, and the till keeps working when the connection drops.
- **Is EliteTeQ POS suitable for coin shops businesses in Shanghai?** Yes. Shanghai sits in Shanghai Municipality, and a POS here has to generate and reconcile QR-wallet payments and issue fapiao under the state invoicing regime. EliteTeQ POS is built for exactly that — CNY pricing, Alipay recorded against each sale, STA-ready tax invoicing, and full offline operation so trading continues when power or network does not.
- **Can I manage consignments and seller payouts?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS includes a consignment module that lets you intake coins from private sellers and collector estates, attaching each item to the consignor's account with agreed commission terms. When a consigned coin sells, the system automatically calculates the payout owed to the seller based on the configured commission rate, reducing manual arithmetic and the risk of errors. You can generate consignor statements at any time showing which items have sold, which remain in inventory, and the exact payout amounts due, making settlement straightforward for both your shop and the seller.
- **Is it suitable for high-value coin transactions?** Yes, EliteTeQ POS is built for high-value transactions, with role-based access controls that restrict who can approve sales above defined thresholds, apply discounts, or modify pricing on premium items. Every transaction generates a detailed audit trail recording which staff member processed the sale, any price adjustments made, and the timestamps of each action, so you have full accountability across your team. These controls protect against unauthorized discounts on high-value coins and give you the documentation needed for insurance, compliance, or dispute resolution purposes.
- **Can I analyze sales by coin type or grade?** Yes, the reporting suite in EliteTeQ POS breaks down sales performance by coin type, grade, metal, and other attributes so you can see exactly which segments of your inventory are generating the most revenue and margin. You can filter reports by date range to identify seasonal buying trends, compare the turnover rate of raw coins versus certified pieces, or track which grade tiers move fastest. These insights help you make smarter purchasing decisions at shows and estate sales, ensuring your inventory stays aligned with what your customers are actively seeking.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We know bullion priced at open and sold at noon can be a loss.** We know the spot price that moves all day, the graded coin sold as a common one, and the over-the-counter buy judged on gut. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to real coin and bullion dealers in Nairobi, pricing against spot, tracking grades and certs, and valuing buys with eyes open.
