Your own online store — no separate website needed.
No Shopify subscription. No CSV imports. No commission. No web developer.
Every product in your ninoPOS catalog can sell on a public, mobile-first storefront at ninopos.com/shop/<your-store>. Customers browse, add to cart, and order for Cash on Delivery or send the order straight to your WhatsApp. Each order lands in your Online Orders inbox and deducts stock automatically. Included free on every plan.
Today, without Online Storefront
- Shopify costs USD 30+ per month plus per-transaction fees
- Keeping product prices in sync between POS and online is manual
- Most e-commerce platforms don't support Cash on Delivery natively
- Mobile-first checkout is rare — and most customers are on phones
- Building anything custom needs a developer

How Online Storefront works in practice
Step by step — from the customer touch to the final ledger entry.
1. Set your store link
In Storefront → Settings, pick the URL you want — e.g. ninopos.com/shop/my-shop — and add your logo, banner and colors.
2. Pick which products to publish
Toggle products visible on the storefront from the product list. Hidden products stay POS-only.
3. Choose delivery & pickup
Set delivery zones and fees, or offer pickup. Cash on Delivery is on by default.
4. Share the link
WhatsApp it to customers, put it in your Instagram bio, run a Facebook ad. The shop is live.
5. Orders flow in
Each order shows up in Online Orders and deducts stock. Confirm, ship, deliver, collect.
6. Track revenue source
The dashboard shows storefront vs in-store revenue side-by-side. See growth at a glance.
Local payments, currencies, and connectivity — sorted out of the box
Online Storefront ships with M-Pesa, multi-currency, offline-resilient checkout, and WhatsApp customer messaging baked in — no plugin, no add-on.
- Record M-Pesa & mobile-money payments
- TZS, KES, UGX, RWF, USD — multi-currency invoicing
- Offline mode for areas with unstable internet
- WhatsApp for receipts, reminders, and orders
- Local tax (VAT) reporting baked in
Frequently asked questions
Specific to Online Storefront.
How is this different from Shopify or WooCommerce?
Shopify is a separate inventory and customer database that you sync to your POS. ninoPOS Storefront IS your POS — same products, same stock, same customers. Nothing to sync, nothing to break, and no monthly e-commerce fee.
Does it really cost nothing extra?
Correct. The storefront is included free on every plan — Starter through Enterprise — with no platform commission on your sales. You only ever pay your normal ninoPOS subscription.
Can I use my own domain?
Yes — on the Enterprise plan you can run the storefront on your own verified custom domain (white-label). On other plans your shop lives on ninopos.com/shop/<your-store>, which is good for SEO since the parent domain has authority.
How do customers pay?
Customers order for Cash on Delivery (or pickup), or send the order straight to your WhatsApp to arrange payment with you directly. When the order is marked Delivered with cash collected, the payment posts to your ledger automatically. Online card/mobile-money payment at checkout is on our roadmap.
Will this work for B2B / wholesale?
Yes. Logged-in B2B customers see their negotiated prices and credit limits at checkout. Public visitors see retail prices.
How do I disable it temporarily?
Storefront → Settings → toggle off. The /shop/<your-store> page goes offline immediately. Re-enable any time without losing data.
