Made for Tuckshops & Small Counters

Tuckshop software that runs the whole counter — till, stock, and profit.

Swipee is the small-shop operating system for Zimbabwe. Record sales in USD and ZiG, track every crate and packet, spot your bestsellers, and see what you actually earned — from the phone in your pocket.

A tuckshop is a real business with real stock, real debt, and real competition — but it is usually run with a calculator and a single notebook. Swipee was built for exactly that counter: fast enough to serve a queue, simple enough that any family member can run it, and honest enough that the owner finally sees true profit.

Ring up sales by amount or item, scan barcodes, and let stock decrement automatically. The same system records cash and mobile-money sales in USD and ZiG, so your takings and your inventory stay in one place instead of across three notebooks.

Small doesn't mean limited. You get low-stock alerts before Mazoe or cooking oil runs out, daily turnover and margin reports, and simple controls for multiple shops if your business grows past one counter.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best tuckshop software in Zimbabwe?

The best is the one the counter can actually run every day. Swipee is a free phone-based till and stock app built for Zimbabwe: cash sales in USD and ZiG, barcode scanning, automatic stock deduction, and a simple owner dashboard — no hardware to buy.

Can my family members run the till too?

Yes. Swipee lets you create separate till login codes for staff or family, each with their own activity, so you can see who sold what — without giving them the owner account.

Does a tuckshop really need barcode scanning?

If you sell packaged goods, yes — scanning is the fastest way to check out and the most reliable way to track stock. Swipee scans with the phone camera, so it costs nothing extra.

What payments can a tuckshop accept with Swipee?

The till records cash and records digital payment methods that are switched on for your account. Digital rails and cash access are rolled out in phases with licensed financial partners and announced before going live.

Is Swipee free for tuckshops?

Yes. The cash till, stock control, and owner dashboard are free for merchants during the Zimbabwe pilot. No subscription, no hardware, no hidden fees.

How do I stop money leaking from the register?

Give every till its own login code, watch the audit trail of every sale and correction, and reconcile with the dashboard. When a counter records everything honestly, leakage becomes visible and stop-able.
