POS built for Texas convenience, grocery and liquor stores

Texas rings on a 6.25% state rate with up to 2% of local tax on top, and the snack aisle is where a generic POS falls over: an individual portion under 2.5 ounces is taxable while the same snack in a multi-pack is exempt. Storeveu holds that distinction on the product, not in the cashier's head.

Serving independent retailers across Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Fort Worth, El Paso and the rest of Texas.

Texas rules, already configured

These are the settings a TX store has to get right. Storeveu ships with them in place rather than leaving them for you to build.

State sales tax

6.25% plus up to 2% local

Cities, counties, transit authorities and special districts add up to 2% on top, so the combined rate tops out at 8.25% and varies by store address. Storeveu holds the effective rate per store, so a Houston and an Austin location share one catalog.

The 2.5 ounce snack rule

Same SKU, two tax outcomes

Texas taxes a snack in an individual sized portion, which means a package under 2.5 ounces OR one labelled as a single serving. The weight alone does not decide it: a 3 ounce bag labelled one serving is still taxable, while the same snack in a multi-pack is exempt. Storeveu resolves tax from the product record rather than leaving it to the cashier.

Lottery commission

5% on sales

The 5% retailer commission is the statutory minimum and is held at state level, so every Texas store inherits it. Texas publishes no across the board cashing rate, so Storeveu does not invent one. Selling bonuses are tracked separately from commission.

Alcohol at the register

Beer and wine only, timed

A Texas convenience store cannot ring distilled spirits at all. Beer and wine carry hour restrictions that differ by day, including a Sunday start time, so the register has to refuse the sale rather than rely on the cashier knowing the clock.

Keeps selling when the internet drops

The register is offline first. Sales keep ringing and sync the moment the connection returns.

Month to month, no contract

Starter and Pro are billed per store with no long term contract and no early termination fee.

Texas questions

How does Storeveu handle the Texas 2.5 ounce snack tax rule?

Texas uses a two part test rather than a single weight. A snack is taxable if the package holds less than 2.5 ounces or is labelled as having not more than one serving, so a 3 ounce single serving bag is taxable while the same snack in a multi-pack is exempt. Storeveu holds that determination on the product, so both ring correctly on the same receipt without the cashier judging pack size.

Can a Texas convenience store sell liquor through Storeveu?

No, and that is a state rule rather than a software limit. Distilled spirits in Texas may only be sold by a licensed package store, so a convenience store sells beer and wine only. Storeveu enforces the categories your licence covers and applies the day and hour restrictions that apply to beer and wine sales.

What lottery commission rate does Storeveu use for Texas?

The 5% sales commission is set at state level and inherited by every Texas store, with a per store override when an agreement differs. Texas does not publish a standing cashing commission, so Storeveu reports commission on sales and keeps selling bonuses as separate figures rather than blending them into one rate.

Does Storeveu handle local sales tax across different Texas cities?

Yes. The 6.25% state rate is the floor and local jurisdictions add up to 2% on top, so the combined rate depends on the store address. The effective rate lives on the store record, which means a multi location operator runs one catalog and one price book while each store rings its own correct rate.

Common questions

How much does Storeveu cost?

Plans start at $39/mo (Starter) and $129/mo (Pro) per store, billed month-to-month with no contract or early-termination fee. Most modules are add-ons you turn on per store, see the pricing page for the full list.

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.
