Choosing and switching to Veira

Do I need to buy new hardware to use Veira?

Updated June 2026

Short answer

No. Veira runs on a phone or tablet you may already own through a browser or app, and every plan also includes a terminal included on annual billing with a built-in printer. So you can start on your own device and use the terminal for a proper counter setup, without buying a machine.

More detail

Hardware is usually the biggest barrier to going digital, which is why it is bundled in. You are not asked to invest in a device before you know the system fits.

Running on your existing phone also makes it easy to try, and the same account extends to the terminal and tablet as you grow, so you scale without changing systems.
