# SmartPOS Hub

> SmartPOS Hub is a hosted point-of-sale, inventory, accounting and online-store system for small businesses — restaurants, marts, pharmacies, tech, appliance and electronics stores and service businesses — with the SmartPOS Business (staff) and SmartPOS Shopper (customer) mobile apps.

SmartPOS Hub Docs (https://docs.smartposhub.com) is the official user documentation for SmartPOS Hub, the web app at app.smartposhub.com. Audience: Business owners, managers and cashiers who use SmartPOS Hub. Shoppers (customers of a store) have a separate help site.

Products: SmartPOS Hub — The web app for owners and staff: POS, products, stock, customers, reports, modules and settings. SmartPOS Business — Android app for owners and staff: sell, scan, take payments, manage stock and customers, chat with shoppers, work offline. SmartPOS Shopper — Android app for your customers: find your store, order, scan and go, see receipts and balances, chat with you.

Every page is also available as raw Markdown by adding `.md` to its path without the trailing slash (for example https://docs.smartposhub.com/selling/credit-and-partial-payments.md; the homepage is https://docs.smartposhub.com/index.md).

Feature availability has up to three gates: the plan includes the module, the switch in Settings is on, and the user role has the permission. Module pages state all three in a "How to turn it on" box.
