Frequently asked questions
Specific to food truck operations.
Will NinoPOS work with no internet at all?
Yes. Sell, print receipts, and accept cash entirely offline. Card and M-Pesa require connectivity in the moment, but everything else queues and syncs when you reconnect.
What hardware do I need?
An Android tablet or iPad, a Bluetooth thermal printer, optionally a Bluetooth barcode scanner, and a card terminal if you want card payments.
Can I see which events were actually worth it?
Yes. Tag a shift with a pitch or event name, and reports break down revenue, stock used, and top sellers per event.
