The Sam4s Sapphire is a modern touch screen retail business POS solution suited for convenience stores, minimarkets, grocers, newsagents and other type of retail shops. It features the new faster Intel J6412 Quad Core processor and the popular Honeywell Orbit barcode scanner.
No Ongoing Fees
A complete till solution at an affordable price. No Monthly / Annual Usage Fees to ever pay for the main system. You simply pay once and buy the system outright.
No Internet Required
The system is very fast and secure as it is not a cloud-based system. The POS software app and your data are all stored locally on the POS hardware.
Only if you use Integrated Card Payment Processing, the optional Cloud Back Office app and related modules would you require internet just for those features.
Benefits of an Installed System over a Cloud System
With an installed POS system the program application and database are all installed locally on your POS terminal(s). This results in much faster processing time, greater staff productivity, allowing you to serve your customers faster and minimise waiting times during busy periods at your store. There is no reliance on outside web servers, no reliance on internet connectivity, no dependence on internet reliability, signal strength or connection speeds. Furthermore, there is no need to keep paying monthly or annual software fees to use the system. The SamTouch POS software has a lifetime permanent license.
With an installed system, there is no unexpected down-time due to server maintenance or cloud app upgrades. Your POS program and business data are all physically stored at your premises, on your POS equipment, available 24/7 365 days a year, 100% under your control at all times.

SAMPLE SCREEN SHOTS
SAMPLE SCREEN SHOTS
USER-FRIENDLY SCREENS
Clear colour co-ordinated screens allow the operator to easily choose the required menu items. There is no limit to the number of screens. Navigation is easy with the menu structure. Staff access can be controlled to managerial and reporting screens.
As the POS software and database are all held local on your terminal, it is
much faster than cloud-based systems which rely on internet connectivity and the provider's website availability and they are therefore much slower. The installed system gives you speed, reliability and 100% control over your POS system and data, without relying on outside parties and without the need to make ongoing payments to any cloud system provider.
LIVE STOCK LEVELS
The 'Count Down' feature allows you to see how many of each item is available, with a trigger level to prompt further cooking / ordering. For example, you may have 8 doughnuts - as each one is sold, the button shows how many are left. If you have set a trigger level, then it will prompt you to prepare more. With networked systems with multiple terminals, each terminal is updated in real-time.
POP-UPS FOR OPTIONS
Pop-up Windows allow selection of optional extras for condiments, sauces and sides. These can include a Price addition too. These can also be used for Salad options, Bread types (white / brown / baguette etc), Cooking (Rare / Medium / Well Done), as well as 'No' instructions (eg. No Onions). A Free-Text feature also allows specific instructions to be typed on the touch screen for kitchen tickets.
CONTROL THE SCREEN LAYOUTS
Each screen can have upto 80 single buttons or these can be re-sized to double, quad-size or custom size buttons. Buttons can be coloured as required, with the desired font and font size. Images may be placed on custom screen buttons if required such as brand logos or food/drink product images.
UPSELL EXTRAS FOR ADDITIONAL SALES REVENUE
Where an item has an optional item, a simple Popup Window allows the operator to choose. This makes it clear for the kitchen chef, avoids mistakes and allows you to upsell extras for additional sales revenue.
REDUCE MISTAKES & KEEP YOUR CUSTOMERS HAPPY
Where you have a mixed dish or choices, such as salads, toppings, sauces then you can choose from a list of "With", "Extra" or "No". For exmple, With Chilli Sauce, Extra Chilli Sauce, or No Chilli Sauce.

TAX / VAT RATES
The system supports upto 10 different VAT rates, so you can specify the required VAT Rate (20%, Zero, 5% etc) for each product. If you have multiple VAT rates for different transaction types (eg. Eat In / Take Away) then the VAT Shift function allows the calculations to be automated. If you have split items (eg. Hot and Cold food in the same takeaway box), then the Product Link function allows split VAT rates to be applied automatically.
PROMOTIONS & SPECIAL OFFERS
A powerful Promotions module allows your special offer pricing to be automated, and it can be scheduled to apply for particular date periods, days of the week or set hours. (eg. Thursdays 5-7pm only, or Weekends only, or Mon-Thu 12noon-2pm only and so on). You can have Fixed Price offers, Cheapest Free, Buy X for £Y and volume discounts.

Products are neatly structured into Product Groups which allows the dynamic screens to be automatically updated and your reports automatically structured. You can add additional groups as required. Groups in turned are placed into higher level 'Classifications' such as Food (Dry Sales), Drinks (Wet Sales), Retail Items and so on. Reports can be produced at the Classification level, Group level, or individual Product level.
