How is Veira different from a regular POS?

Updated June 2026

Short answer

A regular POS rings up sales. Veira rings up the sale and also files the KRA eTIMS invoice, records the M-Pesa payment against it, tracks the stock that left the shelf and shows it all in one report. It is a point of sale, eTIMS billing and stock control in one app, with a terminal included on annual billing.

More detail

Many till systems were built only to total a sale and print a receipt. Compliance, payments and stock were left to separate tools or a notebook. That works until KRA wants the invoice, an M-Pesa payment needs matching, or you want to know what actually sold.

Veira joins those jobs up. The same sale that prints a receipt also queues the eTIMS invoice, links to the M-Pesa or cash payment, and reduces the stock count, so the numbers reconcile by themselves instead of at the end of a long day.

Related questions

Do I still need separate eTIMS software?
No. Veira files eTIMS invoices itself as part of the sale, so you do not run a second system for compliance.
Does it handle stock too?
Yes. Each sale reduces the stock count, so a regular till plus a separate stock book becomes one record.

Veira gives Kenyan shops one calm app for selling, M-Pesa, KRA eTIMS and stock, with a terminal included on annual billing. Book a demo and see it set up for your trade.
