Point of sale for Medusa

MedusaPOS is an open-source, MIT-licensed till for Medusa v2 stores. It runs in the browser, keeps selling when the connection drops, and records every sale in your Medusa store exactly once.

The demo store resets every night. The web app needs a Medusa 2.21 store with the MedusaPOS plugin installed.

What it does today

Everything listed here is covered by the app's automated tests, which run on every change.

Sells offline

Keep selling from the loaded catalogue when the connection drops. Queued sales sync when you're back online, and each one lands in Medusa exactly once.

Real Medusa orders

Each sale becomes a paid, completed order in your Medusa store with stock deducted, recorded by the MedusaPOS plugin.

Cash and card terminal

Take cash, or take a card on your own terminal and record it as an external payment. Each sale ends with a receipt you can print. MedusaPOS does not charge cards itself.

Registers

Open with a float, record cash paid in and out, then count and close. A large difference needs a manager's approval.

Scan or search

Use a keyboard-wedge barcode scanner, or search by name, SKU or barcode.

Phone and counter

The same app works on a counter screen and on a phone, with the cart a tap away.

Discounts

Take a percentage or a fixed amount off a line or the whole order. The cart and receipt show each discount, and Medusa records it on the order.

Parked sales

Park the current sale, ring up the next one, then resume or discard the parked sale. A resumed sale picks up today's catalogue prices.

Line price edit

Change a line's unit price at the till, with an optional reason. The order reaches Medusa at the price you charged.

Split tender

Split one sale between your card terminal and cash. Change comes from the cash part only, and the Medusa order records both payments.

Customers

Search for a customer or create one at the till, and the Medusa order is linked to them. Searching and creating need a connection.

In the browser you already have

Open app.medusapos.com in a current Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox and sign in with your store's backend URL and an admin account. The catalogue and unsent sales are kept in the browser's own storage, so a page reload or a dropped connection doesn't lose a sale.

Not there yet

MedusaPOS is in beta. Today it does not:

  • charge cards, or handle refunds and returns
  • sign in with multi-factor authentication
  • run as a native iOS, Android or desktop app (it runs in the browser)
  • support more than one stock location per sales channel

See the limitations page for the full list.

Try it with your store

Install the plugin, allow the POS origin, and sign in. The quick start walks through it.
