Set up on a Saturday. Useful the same afternoon.
Three steps, in the order most shops actually do them. No training session, no manual to read first — the app explains itself as you go.
Add your products
Name, what it cost you, what you sell it for, how many you have. Type them in one by one at the counter, or upload the list you already keep — Kivora matches the columns and you check the result before anything is saved.
Most shops enter their full product list in one evening. Keep the notebook running alongside for the first week if that feels safer — nothing forces you to switch over on day one.
Record sales as they happen
At the counter, on your phone, in about ten seconds. Search the product, tap it, choose cash, mobile money, card or credit, and take the payment. Stock and profit update the moment you hit save.
No connection at the counter? Nothing waits. Sales are saved on the phone and sync by themselves the next time it finds a signal.
See your profit
Open the app in the evening and the day is already counted. Sales, gross profit, net profit after expenses, what's owed to you, and what's running low — nothing to reconcile, nothing to add up by hand.
At the end of the month, export the same numbers as a spreadsheet — for yourself, or for an accountant if you work with one.
No import wizard to fight. No setup call to book.
Most shops enter their product list in one evening and are recording sales the next morning. If it helps, keep the notebook running alongside for the first week — Kivora doesn't mind being the backup copy at first.
Start this Saturday
No card needed, and you can export your records and walk away at any time.
