You’ll need a Windows or macOS computer for the main workspace, an internet connection for activation, and your business and product details.
Choose the shop computer
Install Faida on the computer that normally stays at the shop. It holds the local workspace and must stay awake and connected to the shop network while paired tablets are in use.
If you plan to print receipts, check that the printer is connected and available to this computer.
Install and activate
Download Faida, install it, and open the app. Follow the activation guide to connect the installation to your business and seat.
Use the business name you want customers to see on receipts. Check the currency and branch before entering stock or making sales.
Add the first products
Start with a small group of products you sell regularly. Enter their names, selling prices, and barcodes if you use a scanner. Check tax settings and enter the quantities you actually have on hand.
You can add the rest of the catalogue in stages. Count opening stock before selling it so the recorded quantities have a known starting point.
Check a complete sale
Follow Make your first sale. Check the total, payment method, and receipt, then find the sale in the order history.
If you make a test transaction in your real workspace, reverse it through the return or correction flow afterwards. Test sales left in the records will affect your reports and stock.
