What TillCaptain does

Everything below is in the app today.

Selling at the till

Fast barcode sales: scan to add an item, scan again for one more, sell by the carton or by the piece.
Retail, wholesale and half-wholesale price lists; discounts as a percentage or an amount.
Cash, card, cheque or credit (pay later), with the change due and the customer's previous balance.
Returns against the original sale, refunded in cash, by card or to the customer's account.
Cashier shifts with an X report at any time and a Z report with the counted cash at closing.
Selling continues when the connection drops: the sale gets its real number once the server can be reached again.
Send an invoice summary on WhatsApp or share the invoice as a PDF.

Questions and answers

Is TillCaptain free?

Yes. TillCaptain is currently free to use: there are no plans, subscriptions or payments.

How do I start?

Open the web app or the Windows app, choose Create a new shop on the sign-in screen and sign up with your email address or mobile number. Then add your staff in Users & permissions and choose what each person may do.

Do I need an internet connection?

Yes. TillCaptain works with an online service, so every PC in the shop sees the same stock and accounts. If the connection drops, the till keeps selling: the sale is kept with a provisional number and gets its real number once the server can be reached again.

Can I use it in a web browser?

Yes. Open tillcaptain.marlysoft.com and sign in. The Windows app uses the same account and the same data.

What hardware do I need?

A Windows PC or a computer with a web browser. A USB barcode scanner, a receipt printer and a label printer are optional.

Can TillCaptain issue Egyptian Tax Authority e-receipts?

Yes, for shops in Egypt. TillCaptain can issue an e-receipt for every sale and return and, if you also turn on B2B e-invoices, an e-invoice for every sale to a business with a tax registration number. It stays off until you turn it on, and its practice mode checks every document without sending anything. Sending needs your own registration on the Tax Authority's portal. Outside Egypt, TillCaptain does not connect to any government fiscal or e-invoicing system.

Which languages does it speak?

Arabic (right to left), English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Turkish, in light or dark mode.

Can I get my data out?

Yes. The shop's administrator can download a backup file of the whole shop at any time in Backup & restore, and reports can be saved as PDF or spreadsheets. The server also keeps a backup every night.
