POS built for Kansas convenience, grocery and liquor stores

Kansas layers city, county and, at some addresses, a Community Improvement District or Transportation Development District tax on top of the 6.5% state rate. Combined rates typically run about 7.5% to 10%, with the top reported combined rate around 11.5%. Because CID and TDD overlays attach to specific parcels rather than whole cities, two stores on the same street can carry different combined rates. Storeveu applies the rate from your store's exact jurisdiction code, not just the city name, and rolls it into every receipt automatically.

Kansas phased the state sales tax on groceries down in steps, from 4% in 2023 to 2% in 2024 to 0% as of January 1, 2025. That cut only touches the state share: city, county and any CID or TDD tax on the same grocery item still applies in full. Alcohol, prepared food and tobacco fall outside the food category and stay at the full combined rate. Storeveu keeps grocery items on a local-only tax class, separate from prepared food and alcohol, so a hot case item and a packaged item on the same receipt ring correctly.

Kansas Lottery pays retailers a 5% commission on tickets sold and a separate 1% commission on prizes cashed at your store. Those are two different rates, not one blended commission, so selling and cashing need to be tracked separately to make sense of your payout. Storeveu applies both figures and keeps selling and cashing as two separate lines in your reporting. That way the numbers match what the Lottery's own statement shows instead of being flattened into one percentage.

Kansas convenience and grocery stores hold a Cereal Malt Beverage off-premises licence, which allows beer up to 6% ABV and nothing stronger. Wine and spirits are sold only through a separately licensed retail liquor store, taxed at an 8% liquor enforcement tax instead of ordinary sales tax. Alcohol and tobacco purchase age are both 21, tobacco having moved up from 18 in 2023. Storeveu enforces the categories your licence actually covers and prompts for date of birth at checkout.
