POS built for Missouri convenience, grocery and liquor stores

Start from the 4.225% state rate, then add whatever local rate applies at that exact street address. Local sales tax in Missouri is voter-approved and optional, so a city, a county, a transportation development district and a community improvement district can each stack a rate, and two of your stores in one ZIP code can land on different totals. Look the address up in the Department of Revenue rate tables, which are republished quarterly, rather than working from a ZIP-level figure. Storeveu inherits the state rate across every Missouri store and lets you override the local layer per store. One more thing worth setting up in the back office: RSMo 144.140 lets you keep 2% of the sales tax you remit when you file on or before the due date, and missing the deadline forfeits the whole 2% for that period.

Yes, but it is a reduction rather than an exemption and it only touches the state layer. Qualifying food drops from 4.225% to 1.225% under RSMo 144.014, while every local sales tax still applies in full. Two conditions have to hold: the item has to be SNAP-eligible, and your establishment must not take more than 80% of its total gross receipts from food it prepared for immediate consumption, which is a store-level test that a heavy deli or hot case format can fail and lose the reduced rate on all of its food. Because the first test is SNAP eligibility rather than nutrition, candy and soft drinks do get 1.225%, while alcohol and tobacco stay at 4.225% and hot food ready for immediate consumption falls back to 4.225% as well. Storeveu uses per-department tax rules driven by the same product attribute that controls EBT acceptance, so one basket can carry all three rates and still ring correctly.

5% on the tickets you sell. Cashing should not be budgeted as a commission, because the Lottery runs it as an incentive of 2% of prize value on winning tickets of $600 or less. Under 12 CSR 40-40.260 the director may authorise a retailer incentive program at any time, set game and sales criteria, and require that you are a licensed and active retailer, current on ticket payment and in compliance with the retailer agreement and the rules of the program. Validations above $600 earn nothing under that line. Storeveu records selling and cashing as separate streams, so the 5% reconciles against the Lottery statement and the incentive is not accrued as guaranteed revenue on every ticket you cash.

Yes. Missouri is a licence state, and the original package licence in RSMo 311.200 is open to grocery, general merchandise, delicatessen, confectionery, drug and tobacco stores, so full-strength beer, wine and spirits can sit on the same shelf. It runs $100 a year to the state through the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control, needs a matching city or county licence, and requires at least $1,000 of non-liquor stock on hand. There is no state quota on the number of package licences, though local dry-option elections and city ordinances can narrow availability or set hours stricter than the state ceiling of 6:00 a.m. to 1:30 a.m., and Sunday trading needs its own licence at $200 plus up to $300 locally. Card to 21 for alcohol and for tobacco, nicotine and vapor products: RSMo 407.931 still reads 18 but federal Tobacco 21 controls, so Storeveu's date-of-birth prompt is set to 21 on both.
