What NodePoint is: one login for your shop, restaurant, hotel and books

NodePoint is four pieces of business software that behave like one: a point of sale for shops, a restaurant system, hotel management and accounts. You sign in once, switch between them from the top of the screen, and the customers, staff and reports carry across. It was built in Nairobi for the way trade actually happens here: M-Pesa first, internet sometimes, VAT always.

The four apps

Retail POS

Barcode checkout, M-Pesa on every sale, stock per branch, cashier shifts with a counted float, customer accounts with store credit, and sales that keep recording when the connection drops. See Retail POS →

Restaurant

Tables, orders that go straight to a kitchen screen, split bills, reservations and a menu you can change at the counter. Waiters, cashiers and the kitchen each see only their own screen. See Restaurant →

Hotel Management

A calendar that shows every room for the next two weeks, bookings with a guest register, check-in and check-out with a folio, housekeeping, room service, and reports that speak the language of hotels — occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. See Hotel Management →

Accounts & Books

Quotations, invoices, bills, payments, expenses and thirteen reports from receivables ageing to profit and loss, with VAT split out for filing. See Accounts →

What they share

  • One login and one team. Roles decide who sees what; every action carries the name of who did it.
  • One customer list. The shop's customer, the hotel's guest and the accounts client can be the same record.
  • The same money rules. M-Pesa, cash, card and credit are recorded the same way everywhere, so the books agree with the tills.
  • Your data stays yours. Export everything to CSV at any time, including after a subscription ends.

Where it runs

On a phone, a tablet or a laptop, in the browser or as an app, with prices in KES, UGX, TZS, RWF or USD and tax settings for Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda. Each app is priced on its own — see pricing — and every plan includes unlimited users.

If you are choosing your first system, start with moving from a spreadsheet to a POS. If you run a property, how to choose hotel software is the better first read.

Available in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Rwanda. Questions? Contact us.
