In the UAE, Sandooq helps retailers configure 5% VAT calculations, merchant tax fields, Arabic-English receipt text, and branch-level sales summaries from one back office. Multi-currency counter workflows can record AED alongside common tourist currencies with centrally managed daily rates, which helps Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates, souk, and hotel-retail teams keep receipts transparent. Multi-emirate operation lets a Dubai head office manage inventory, promotions, permissions, and reporting for Abu Dhabi and Sharjah branches without each store maintaining its own manual setup.
United Arab Emirates
Built for retail realities in United Arab Emirates
Payment, tax, and operating needs vary by market, so Sandooq highlights capabilities that matter in this country.
FTA-compliant 5% VAT invoicing
Configure 5% VAT calculations, merchant tax fields, line-level breakdowns, and Arabic-English receipt text for UAE stores. Finance teams can review sales and tax totals by branch while formal authority-specific filing formats remain out of public copy until integrated.
Multi-currency for tourists
Accept AED, USD, EUR, SAR, and GBP at the counter with daily exchange rates set in the dashboard or synced from your bank. Receipts show both the AED total and the customer's tendered currency โ useful for Dubai Mall, Mall of the Emirates, and souk locations where international cardholders expect transparent FX.
Bilingual Arabic/English UX
Staff toggle between Arabic and English on the same device without restarting; mixed-language teams in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Sharjah share a single terminal. Receipts can be prepared in either language or both to match the buyer's preference.
Browser-based counter setup
Run the cashier on modern tablets, laptops, and desktop browsers, with product search and barcode-friendly workflows for busy mall counters. Specific peripheral and payment-terminal integrations should be confirmed during onboarding instead of promised as built-in.
Multi-emirate operations
Run stores across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ras Al Khaimah, and Fujairah from one dashboard with per-emirate inventory and accounting. Inter-emirate transfers move stock between branches with full audit trail. Consolidated reporting rolls up the chain for ownership while per-store reports stay scoped for branch managers.

How does offline mode work?
Sandooq's offline mode stores your entire product catalog, customer list, and pricing on the device, so checkout keeps running when the internet drops or power flickers. Every sale, return, payment, and inventory movement is queued locally in an encrypted database on the terminal. When connectivity is restored โ whether seconds or hours later โ the queue syncs automatically to the cloud back office in the order it happened, with no manual intervention required from the cashier. Conflict resolution is handled server-side so two terminals selling the same SKU offline never double-decrement stock. We tested the system through extended outages across Lebanese and Syrian retail environments and zero transactions were lost. This is the difference between offline-capable (slow, brittle) and offline-first (designed for it).
Can I migrate from my current POS system?
Yes. Sandooq supports CSV import for products, variants, categories, customers, suppliers, and opening stock balances โ the same export formats produced by Foodics, Loyverse, Square, Rewaa, and most legacy MENA POS systems. The dashboard import wizard validates rows before committing and shows a diff so you can confirm the mapping before going live. For larger or more complex migrations โ multi-store inventory, loyalty point balances, accounts receivable, multi-currency cash drawers โ our merchant-success team handles the import on your behalf within the onboarding window and reconciles totals against your previous system before cutover. We do not charge a migration fee on any plan; the timeline depends on data quality but most single-store migrations complete in under a week.
What hardware do I need?
Sandooq runs on any modern tablet, phone, laptop, or desktop with a recent browser โ no proprietary terminals required. The recommended setup for a typical retail counter is a 10-inch Android tablet or iPad with a wired or Bluetooth thermal receipt printer (ESC/POS-compatible, including Epson TM-T82III, Star TSP143, Xprinter XP-T80B) and a USB or Bluetooth barcode scanner (any HID-mode scanner works without configuration). Cash drawers connect through the printer's RJ11 trigger. For multi-store chains we support a mix of devices across branches and warehouses without licensing per device. If you already own retail hardware, send us the model numbers and we'll confirm compatibility before purchase โ most equipment less than five years old is supported out of the box.
Is my data secure?
Sandooq encrypts data in transit (TLS 1.2+) and at rest, with each tenant's records isolated at the database row level using PostgreSQL row-level security so one merchant can never query another's sales, stock, or customer records. All staff actions โ login, sale, void, refund, manager override, cash drawer open, price change โ are written to an audit log with timestamp, user, and device identifier. Role-based access control governs which staff can void transactions, see margins, approve discounts above thresholds, or close the till.
Do you charge transaction fees?
Sandooq does not add platform transaction fees on top of your sales โ your subscription is flat-rate and your monthly bill does not scale with revenue. Payment processor or acquirer fees may still apply when you use external card terminals, hosted card payment, or other payment providers, and those fees are billed by the processor directly.
Can I use my own domain?
Receipt branding and merchant profile details can be configured during onboarding. Customer-facing pages, deeper branded surfaces, and fully branded cashier experiences are not advertised as generally available until those surfaces are integrated and verified.
What kind of support do you offer?
Sandooq provides bilingual Arabic and English support across email, WhatsApp Business chat, and scheduled video calls. Email support is included on every plan with a response target inside one business day; the Professional plan adds priority WhatsApp support and same-day response during business hours; Enterprise adds a dedicated merchant-success manager, a private Slack or WhatsApp Business channel for your team, and a documented SLA with credits for missed response targets. For new merchants we run a guided onboarding session covering catalog import, hardware setup, staff training, payment integration, and a checklist tailored to your country's tax requirements. Our support team includes engineers who can debug device-level issues, not only product-knowledge agents.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes, you can cancel from your account settings at any time without speaking to anyone and without an early-termination fee on standard plans. After cancellation, your account remains active for the remainder of the billing period you've already paid for; you continue to ring sales, run reports, and access the back office normally during that window. Operational data exports can be prepared during offboarding so you can take your business records with you.
