Works offline

Syncs when the internet's back

What OpenKedai does

A tablet at the counter, phones at the tables and a back office for you. None of it waits on the internet.

  • Keeps selling offline

    Taking orders, payment, printing receipts and closing a shift never wait on the internet. Everything syncs when the connection comes back.

  • Tablets and phones

    iPad, iPhone, Android tablets and phones, and counter terminals like Sunmi. A tablet at the counter, phones for taking orders at the table.

  • Printing without drivers

    Receipts and kitchen tickets on ESC/POS network printers and Sunmi's built-in printers. Nothing to install.

  • Back office in your browser

    With a hub, manage the menu, staff, settings and devices, and see reports: sales, items, payment methods, SST per code and Z-reports. Export to CSV.

  • Your data stays yours

    No account with us and no cloud required. No tracking in the app: telemetry stays off unless you turn it on.

  • Free and open source

    No licence fees and no subscription. The code is open source under AGPL-3.0.

Three ways to run it

Start with one tablet. Add a hub when the shop gets busier.

  1. One device, no server

    A single tablet runs the shop on its own. Nothing else to set up.

  2. A hub at the shop

    A mini PC, Raspberry Pi or NAS on the shop's own network. Devices share orders, and you get the back office.

  3. A hub in the cloud

    The same hub on a cheap cloud server. If the connection drops, the devices keep selling and sync later.

Made for Malaysia

Set up for how Malaysian shops work, from SST to 5-sen rounding.

  • SST at 6% and 8%

    Your SST registration number on every receipt, and SST per tax code in the reports.

  • Service charge

    Add a service charge, shown on its own line on the receipt.

  • 5-sen cash rounding

    Cash totals round to the nearest 5 sen, with the adjustment printed on the receipt.

  • DuitNow QR

    Show your shop's DuitNow QR at checkout and confirm the payment, alongside cash and card.

  • Three languages

    English, Bahasa Melayu and 简体中文, on screen and on printed receipts. Chinese prints even on printers without Chinese fonts.

A receipt in Chinese and English, laid out by OpenKedai's own printing code. The shop is made up.

Run a hub in minutes

One container, one port, one data folder, and nothing to set up first. Daily backups, optionally to any S3-compatible storage.

The install commands will appear here when the source code is public. The guides are already on the docs site.
