Delaware charges no sales tax at all, at the state level or through any city or county, so nothing that crosses the scanner ever adds a tax line. The complexity shows up in alcohol instead: a convenience store cannot sell beer, wine or spirits off premise, and even a genuine grocery store needs a separate licence just to carry beer and wine. For a Delaware operator, register setup is less about tax rates and more about keeping each store's product mix inside whatever licence it actually holds.
Serving independent retailers across Wilmington, Dover, Newark, Middletown, Smyrna, Milford and the rest of Delaware.
These are the settings a DE store has to get right. Storeveu ships with them in place rather than leaving them for you to build.
None, state or local
Delaware has no state sales tax, and no city or county is authorized to layer one on top, so every item, grocery, prepared food or general merchandise, rings at its shelf price. There is a Gross Receipts Tax that businesses pay directly to the state on their revenue, but it never appears as a line on a customer receipt. Storeveu runs Delaware stores with per-department tax rules left at zero across the board, so nothing needs reconfiguring store to store.
Repealed 2010, no charge today
Delaware ran a 5 cent deposit on soda and beer sold in glass or plastic bottles, though not aluminium cans, into 2010, when Senate Bill 234 repealed it, with deposits stopping that December and refunds ending the following January. It was replaced by a Universal Recycling Law under which retailers and distributors now pay a 4 cent fee per covered container into the state's Recycling Fund, but that fee isn't collected from the customer and nothing is refunded at the counter. Storeveu doesn't add a deposit line to Delaware receipts, and the Bottle Redemption screen stays off for stores in this state.
7% on sales, 1% on cashing
The Delaware Lottery pays two different rates rather than one blended commission: 7% on tickets sold and a separate 1% on prizes cashed for players. Storeveu tracks lottery books through inventory, active, depleted and settled stages, and works out tickets sold from an end-of-shift ticket scan. Selling and cashing commissions are recorded as separate lines, so the report matches the Lottery statement instead of one combined figure.
Package store only for spirits
Delaware is a licence state: spirits can only be sold off premise by a holder of an OABCC package store licence, and convenience stores cannot hold one. A true grocery store under 33% non-grocery floor space can apply for a separate wine and beer grocery store licence and sell those two categories from up to 10% of its floor, but spirits stay package-store-only regardless, and that licence still excludes convenience stores selling groceries. Both alcohol and tobacco or nicotine sales require the buyer to be 21. Storeveu's date-of-birth prompts and role-scoped access keep the register limited to whichever categories your particular licence actually covers.
The register is offline first. Sales keep ringing and sync the moment the connection returns.
Starter and Pro are billed per store with no long term contract and no early termination fee.

No. Delaware has no state sales tax and no city or county is permitted to add a local one, so nothing on your receipt carries a tax line, taxable or exempt. Businesses do pay a separate Gross Receipts Tax directly to the state, generally between about 0.0945% and 1.9914% of total receipts depending on business activity, and higher for petroleum, but that is charged on your revenue, not itemised to the customer. Storeveu runs Delaware stores with every department rule at zero, so there's nothing to configure or exempt.
Not anymore. Delaware ran a 5 cent deposit on soda and beer in glass or plastic bottles, though never on aluminium cans, from the early 1980s until Senate Bill 234 repealed it, with deposits stopping in December 2010 and refunds ending the following January. It was replaced by a Universal Recycling Law, under which retailers and distributors pay a 4 cent fee per covered container into the state's Recycling Fund, but that fee is not collected from the customer and nothing is refunded at the counter. Storeveu doesn't put a deposit line on Delaware receipts, and there's no redemption screen running at this register.
Only in limited circumstances, and never for spirits. Off premise alcohol sales in Delaware need a licence from the Office of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commissioner, and a convenience store cannot hold one. A true grocery store, one where non-grocery merchandise takes up no more than 33% of the floor, can apply for a separate wine and beer grocery store licence and sell those two categories from up to 10% of its sales floor, but spirits remain restricted to dedicated package stores either way. Storeveu is configured to the categories your specific licence covers, so a store without any alcohol licence simply doesn't ring alcohol at all.
Delaware pays two different rates rather than one blended commission: 7% on lottery ticket sales and a separate 1% on prizes you cash for players. Storeveu tracks lottery books through inventory, active, depleted and settled stages, and the end-of-shift ticket scan works out how many tickets were sold in that period. Because selling and cashing are recorded as separate lines, your commission report lines up against the Delaware Lottery statement instead of showing one combined number.
