1. Install
Run the installer and follow the wizard. It takes about a minute — no technical setup needed.
2. Activate
Enter your licence key and the same email & password you use on this website. Your shop loads automatically.
3. Sell
Add your cashiers, and they sign in with just a username and PIN. Sell all day — completely offline.
How to install Amateta POS
Follow these once on each till computer. The whole process takes about five minutes.
Buy your plan & get your licence key
Create your account on this website and choose a plan — monthly, or the Lifetime licence once-off. Once your payment is approved we email you a licence key that looks like:
AMT-2026-8KJ4-LP92-XQ71
You can always find it again under Billing → My Desktop Licences after signing in.
Download & run the installer
Click Download for Windows at the top of this page and run the file when it finishes.
Windows may show a blue "Windows protected your PC" box. This is normal for new software — click More info, then Run anyway.
Activate the till
On first launch the app asks for three things:
- Your licence key
- Your email (the same one you used on this website)
- Your password (the same one too)
Press Activate & Sign In and your business, products and staff load onto the computer automatically. This is the only step that needs internet.
If you did not choose it when you created your account, the till then asks what kind of business you run — shop, supermarket, butchery, restaurant, bar, lodge and more. From then on every till and phone of your business shows only what your kind of business uses.
No internet on that computer? Click "No internet? Set up offline", send us the Device ID shown on screen, and we'll give you an activation code — or start a 14-day free trial.
Add your cashiers
Go to Staff and add each person with a name, a short username and a 4–6 digit PIN. They sign in at the till with just those two — quick and secure.
In Settings → POS Security you decide the rules: whether cashiers may use a password, whether a manager must approve opening a shift, and whether removing an item needs approval.
Connect your printer & drawer
Plug in your receipt printer and open Settings → Receipt printer. Pick your printer by name (or enter its IP for a network printer) and print a test receipt. The cash drawer plugs into the printer and pops open automatically after each sale.
Barcode scanners need no setup at all — plug them in and scan.
Start selling — online or off
Open the till, start a shift with your cash float, and sell. Everything keeps working with no internet. Whenever there's WiFi your sales, products and customers sync up so you can check the shop from your phone in the Back Office.
At the end of the day, cash up in Cash Register and print your Z-Report.

Step-by-step (per terminal)
- Run the Amateta POS installer → accept the default location → Finish.
- If the antivirus blocks it: add an exclusion for
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Amateta POS\(the program) and%LOCALAPPDATA%\Amateta\RetailNative\(the till's own data). - Launch from the new desktop shortcut and activate with the owner's email and password. The owner then chooses the kind of business, if it was not chosen at sign-up.
- Sign in as a cashier (username and PIN) to verify.
- Connect & test hardware: receipt printer, barcode scanner, cash drawer, touchscreen.
Cash drawer won't open? It plugs into the printer's “DK” port with a drawer-trigger cable (not a phone cord); check the drawer's key-lock is unlocked and the voltage matches the printer (24V).
