The problem
Independent retail is the backbone of consumer economies across the continent. But traditional market research doesn't reach these stores. Brands fly blind. Payment companies sit on untapped data value. And store owners are excluded from the data economy entirely.
The majority of consumer goods sales happen through independent stores with no electronic data capture. What's selling, where, and for how much is a black box.
Payment providers have devices in thousands of stores but no way to monetise the relationship beyond transaction fees. The data value sits dormant.
Store owners generate enormous commercial value but are shut out of the data economy. They share nothing because they gain nothing.
How it works
MetaPOS sits at the centre of a three-sided ecosystem — connecting store owners, payment companies, and brands through shared value.
Use the free MetaPOS app on Android payment terminals or phones to track sales and inventory. Earn rewards from their data.
Structures, enriches, and monetises real-time sales data. Shares value back to every partner.
Subscribe to sales intelligence or deploy MetaPOS to a custom store panel for bespoke analytics reporting.
Who we work with
MetaPOS creates value for each participant in the ecosystem. Select an audience to see how.
Offer your merchants a free point-of-sale application on your handheld payment terminals. Differentiates your device proposition at no cost to you or the store.
Earn recurring revenue from the data your store network generates. You manage the relationship; MetaPOS monetises the data; you share in the value.
Give your stores a reason to transact more through your device. Sales tracking, inventory management, and rewards drive daily usage and retention.
MetaPOS is a standalone Android app that runs on your existing devices. No hardware changes, no platform rebuild. List it on your app marketplace and go.
We're actively looking to integrate with card rail, VAS, and loyalty partners.
Become an integration partnerProduct-level sales data with store-level detail. See what's moving, where, at what price — not aggregated estimates.
Data captured as transactions happen. Not quarterly audits. Not recall surveys. Actual sales, in near-real time.
Deploy MetaPOS to a targeted panel of stores and get bespoke analytics reporting. Build the exact data set your category team needs.
Push promotions, adjust pricing, and measure impact at store level. The same app that captures data delivers targeted actions back to the shelf.
Track every sale and manage your inventory using the free MetaPOS app, available on Android payment terminals via terminal management or your device provider's app store. A full SaaS version for any Android device is coming soon.
Your sales data has value. Share it through MetaPOS and earn rewards — points go to your wallet for transactions, stock purchases, or cash out.
See what's selling, what's not, and where your margin is. Simple reports on your device that help you make better stock and pricing decisions.
Your data stays yours. MetaPOS treats store owners as data partners who share in the value they create — not as raw material for someone else's business.

About
MetaPOS was founded on a simple principle: entities should profit from the data they generate. We started with township retail because that's where the biggest data gap meets the biggest opportunity.
Independent retail is the backbone of consumer economies across Africa. But it has been invisible to the data systems that power modern commerce. MetaPOS exists to close that gap — and to make sure the people generating the data are the first to benefit from it.
