What Storeveu is
What is Storeveu?
Storeveu is a complete retail platform for independent convenience, grocery and liquor stores. It combines an offline first POS register, a back office for catalog, vendors, invoices, staff and reports, sales analytics, and compliance tools for lottery, age verification and bottle deposits, in one system billed per store.
What kinds of stores is it built for?
Convenience and corner stores, grocery and supermarkets, liquor and wine shops, smoke and vape shops, and specialty retail. The compliance features (lottery, EBT, deposits, tobacco scan data, age checks) are aimed squarely at these categories rather than at general retail.
What can Storeveu replace?
It is designed to replace a legacy POS plus the separate tools stores bolt on around it: a back office catalog manager, a lottery reconciliation spreadsheet, an invoice entry process, a loyalty program and an analytics dashboard. Most owners consolidate several systems into one bill.
Does Storeveu handle e-commerce and online orders?
Yes, as an add-on. Storeveu includes an online storefront, order management and delivery platform connections so a store can sell online with the same catalog and inventory it uses at the register.
Getting started and switching
How long does it take to go live?
Most stores are live in 1 to 3 weeks. The bulk of that is importing your catalog and customer list and confirming your tax, deposit and lottery settings. The register itself can be set up in an afternoon.
Can you import my data from my current POS?
Yes. The team imports your product catalog and customer list from systems like Square, Clover, Lightspeed and Heartland, usually as an overnight job. Historical sales can also be imported so your analytics start with real history rather than a blank slate.
How much training do cashiers need?
The register is built to be learned in a shift. It is offline first, touch friendly, and the checkout, scanning and tender flow follow the patterns cashiers already know, so most stores train a cashier in a day.
Hardware and payments
What hardware do I need?
Storeveu runs on standard Windows PCs with common receipt printers and cash drawers, so you can bring hardware you already own. For payments it works with PAX and Dejavoo terminals. You can also buy the dual screen terminal from us if you want a turnkey setup.
How does card processing work?
Storeveu integrates directly with PAX and Dejavoo terminals over the POSLINK protocol, with transparent interchange plus processing on one bill. If you prefer to keep your own processor, that is available as a paid add-on.
Does it support EBT and SNAP?
Yes. EBT Food is handled at tender, with eligibility resolved per item, and EBT Cash is supported where a department is configured for it. The register keeps the food and cash portions of a basket separate so the right total goes to each.
Can it run a scale for weighed items?
Yes. Weighed grocery items are supported through the grocery scale add-on, so deli, produce and bulk items ring by weight at the register.
Lottery, age and deposits
Does Storeveu manage lottery?
Yes, and it is included on every plan at no extra charge. It handles scratch ticket inventory, box activation, cashier shift scanning, variance and commission reporting, and draw game sales. Commission rates and settlement rules are set per state and inherited by every store in that state.
How are bottle deposits handled?
Deposits are applied automatically as their own non taxable line based on your state rules, including two tier states where wine and spirits carry a higher deposit. Refunds are paid back through a bottle redemption screen that counts containers and totals the refund so the drawer reconciles.
Does it enforce age verification?
Yes. Alcohol and tobacco prompt for date of birth at the register based on your state age limits, and the scan data module keeps the tobacco reporting trail that manufacturer programs expect.
Multiple stores and staff
Can I run more than one store?
Yes. Multiple locations run from one back office, each with its own pricing and inventory, and a multi store dashboard rolls performance up across them. Each store is its own subscription, so you can put one store on Starter with the add-ons it needs and another on Pro.
Can I control what staff can see and do?
Yes. There is a five tier role hierarchy (cashier, manager, owner, admin, superadmin) plus custom roles, so you decide which modules and actions each role reaches. Access is enforced across the back office and the register.
Does it track employee hours?
Yes. Cashiers clock in and out at the register, and the back office has scheduling, availability and coverage tools plus employee reports built on those clock events.
Data, security and support
Who owns my data?
You do. Every record is scoped to your organization and store, access is gated by role, and one tenant can never see another tenant’s data. You can export your data, and reports are available as exports.
Is there an AI assistant?
Yes, included on every plan. Storeveu has an in app AI assistant that answers questions about your store and the platform in chat and by voice, plus an optional inbound phone agent. It answers from a knowledge base that is kept in step with the product.
How do I get support?
Support is available by phone and email, and the in app assistant handles many questions directly. There is no phone tree to a call center, you reach the team that runs the platform.
Common questions
How much does Storeveu cost?
Two plans, priced per store and billed month-to-month with no contract or early-termination fee. Starter includes the register, the back office, lottery, fuel, loyalty, marketplace integration and the AI assistant, with paid add-ons for the rest; Pro includes every add-on. Current prices are always on the pricing page.
Does Storeveu work offline?
Yes. The register is offline-first, it keeps ringing sales with no internet and syncs automatically the moment the connection returns, so a dropped router never stops checkout.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. Storeveu is month-to-month per store with no long-term contract and no early-termination fee, change tiers or cancel a store anytime.
Do I need special hardware?
No. Storeveu runs on standard Windows PCs with common receipt printers, cash drawers and PAX/Dejavoo terminals, bring your own, or buy the E15W dual-screen terminal.
How long does it take to switch from my current POS?
Most stores go live in 1-3 weeks. The team imports your catalog and customer list from systems like Square, Clover, Lightspeed or Heartland, usually overnight.
Can I manage multiple stores?
Yes. Run multiple locations from one back office with per-store pricing and inventory, plus a five-tier role hierarchy and custom roles.
Is my store data private and secure?
Every record is scoped to your organization and store, access is permission-gated by role, and one tenant can never see another’s data.
