SaleTick for Hardware and Building Materials Stores

Hardware store software for thousands of items and the customers who owe you.

SaleTick is inventory and sales software for hardware and building materials stores in Nigeria. It handles a wide range of products, lets you print barcode labels for items that arrive without one, records every sale, and keeps track of what each customer owes.

What makes running a hardware store hard

If you run a hardware store, you will recognise these.

  • A huge range of small and large items

    Nails, fittings, cables, paint and cement all need tracking, and a stock book cannot keep up.

  • Most items have no barcode

    Fittings and tools often come loose or repackaged, so scanning feels impossible.

  • Contractors buy now and pay later

    Credit sales are written down in different places, and some are never collected.

  • Stock-taking takes days

    Counting everything by hand is so painful that it rarely happens, so shortages go unnoticed.

How SaleTick helps your hardware store

One system for selling, stocking, tracking and controlling your business.

  • Built for a wide range of products

    Manage a wide range of products, record sales and follow stock movement in one place.

  • Print your own barcode labels

    Label items that came without a barcode, then scan them at the counter like any other product.

  • Know what every customer owes

    Keep each customer and their debt in SaleTick, and import an existing credit book from Excel or photos.

  • Stock that updates itself

    Every sale reduces stock automatically, and low-stock alerts tell you what to reorder.

Features hardware and building materials stores use most

  • Stock that updates itself

    Every sale reduces your stock automatically, so the number on screen matches the shelf.

  • Barcode scanning and printing

    Scan products with your phone or desktop at the counter, and print barcode labels for items that do not have one.

  • Customers and debts

    Keep your customer list and what each customer owes in one place, instead of a debt book.

  • Low-stock and expiry alerts

    Get warned before an item runs out or expires, not after it has cost you.

  • Sales and profit reports

    See what sold, what you earned and your profit for any day. Profit and loss is calculated for you.

  • Staff roles and activity

    Give each person the right role and permissions, see who is present and active, and keep a record of who did what.

  • Bring your existing records

    Import products, stock, customers and debts from Excel, CSV, a PDF or photos of your paper book.

  • We add your products for you

    A SaleTick agent can add your products with you, free as a welcome bonus for new customers.
