AskBiz is a mobile POS for Kenya that runs on the phone you already own — no card machine, no Android POS terminal, no hardware to buy. Point your camera at a product to sell it, accept M-Pesa, Airtel Money or cash, track your stock, and see your daily takings and profit every evening. It's a free mobile POS app built for Kenyan shops, kiosks, dukas, salons, food stalls and service businesses — a phone-first point of sale that works on any Android phone or iPhone, even offline.
Why “mobile POS in Kenya” usually means buying a machine
Search for a mobile POS in Kenya and you'll mostly find handheld Android POS terminals selling for KSh 21,000 to KSh 45,000 — plus receipt paper, a charger and setup. For a stall, a kiosk or a one-person shop, that's a lot of money tied up in a device that can break, get stolen, or sit idle. Meanwhile the phone in your pocket already has a camera, a screen and M-Pesa. It can do the whole job — no separate machine needed.
Your phone is the POS machine
AskBiz turns that phone into a complete point of sale. The camera is the scanner — point it at a product and AskBiz names and prices it, so there's no barcode gun and no typing. Take M-Pesa, MTN, Airtel Money, cash or card, and every sale records itself. Your stock updates as you sell, and at close of day you see exactly what you made and what you profited. It keeps working when the network drops, and it runs on any Android phone or iPhone — no terminal, no app store, no hardware.
