Open Source Point of Sale is a web-based point of sale application written in PHP using the CodeIgniter framework with MySQL/MariaDB as the backend and a Bootstrap-based UI. It provides stock management, sales register, invoicing, taxation, reporting, and multiuser permission control for retail environments.

Use cases

• run a point of sale system for a retail shop
• manage inventory and stock levels for a small business
• generate and print barcodes for products
• track sales, expenses, and generate business reports
• manage customers, suppliers, and gift cards
• handle quotations, invoicing, and receipts
• set up a self-hosted POS with multiuser permissions

When to choose

• you need a free, self-hosted point of sale system
• you want a PHP/MySQL-based POS that is easy to deploy on standard LAMP hosting
• you need inventory management combined with sales register and reporting
• you require multiuser access with permission control and multilanguage support

When to avoid

• you need a cloud-hosted SaaS POS with vendor support
• your stack is not PHP/MySQL based
• you need offline-first POS that works without a web server
• you require advanced ERP features beyond retail point of sale
