A POS system built for high-turnover convenience stores and corner shops in Yaoundé, helping businesses speed up checkout during rush hours, reduce daily cash discrepancies, and maintain accurate stock and pricing from a single dashboard.

## Problems We Solve

- **Cash Going Missing Across Shifts** — A convenience store runs long hours over several shifts, mostly in cash, often while you are not there. A sale not rung up, a shortfall at change-over, a "sample" taken — without per-staff records and a clean cash-up, the leak hides between shifts and you only feel it at the end of the week.
- **The Queue Stalls Over Small, Quick Sales** — A convenience store lives on speed — a soda, a loaf, some airtime, in and out in seconds. But a slow till, prices keyed in by hand, and change counted out of a drawer turn a five-second sale into a queue, and customers in a hurry simply put it down and grab it next door instead.

## How EliteTeQ Solves It

- High-speed barcode scanning, one-tap buttons for top sellers, and instant MTN Mobile Money, card, and cash with change worked out for you keep the line moving. *Quick sales stay quick, the queue clears, and customers stop drifting next door.*
- Real-time stock deducts on every sale with low-stock alerts on your fast movers and dead-stock flags on the lines that just sit. *Bread, milk, and your other bestsellers stay on the shelf, and you stop tying up cash in stock that does not move.*

## How It Works

1. **Set Up Your Store** — Import products, configure pricing, and set up payment methods.
2. **Train Your Team** — Minimal training required. Staff can start selling immediately.
3. **Run & Optimize Daily Operations** — Use real-time insights to manage inventory, pricing, and cash flow.

## Features

- **MTN Mobile Money, Card & Cash** — Take MTN Mobile Money, cards, and cash with change worked out for you, and issue a DGI-compliant receipt automatically on every sale.
- **Staff Accountability & Cash-Up** — Per-staff sales logs, manager-approved voids, and an open/close cash-up that flags variance by shift — so cross-shift leakage shows the same day.
- **Fast Barcode Checkout** — High-speed scanning, one-tap buttons for top sellers, and instant payment keep the line moving on quick, small sales so customers do not drift next door.
- **Real-Time Inventory & Low-Stock Alerts** — Stock deducts on every sale, with alerts on fast movers like bread and milk and dead-stock flags on the lines that just sit on the shelf.

## Running a Business in Yaoundé

Yaoundé sits in Centre Region and is Cameroon's political capital.

Yaoundé's trade is driven by government, institutional and university activity rather than by port logistics, which gives retail and hospitality a steadier weekday rhythm than Douala. The city's hilly layout separates commercial districts, so operators with several outlets need per-site stock visibility. Mobile money is the default for smaller baskets, with cash and card alongside it.

Commerce is spread across hills that separate districts enough to slow any transfer between them, with government and university activity setting a steady weekday rhythm. The binding constraint is per-site stock visibility, because two branches twenty minutes apart behave like different towns.

## From the EliteTeQ Team

**We have done the cash-up that would not balance too.** The queue that stalls over a soda and some airtime, the bread that ran out before lunch, the shift change where the cash never quite adds up. EliteTeQ was not built in a boardroom — it was built next to shopkeepers in Nairobi, where the hours are long, the trade is cash, and you cannot stand behind the counter for every shift.
