Serviced Apartments POS software for businesses in Shinas
Let a studio for two nights, a one-bedroom for a week or a family apartment for a month with the guest, apartment no., check-in, check-out and booking channel on the invoice. Extra cleaning, laundry, the electricity and water used since the last reading, parking and the airport run go on the guest's folio, the apartment rack shows who is in, who arrives and who leaves, and yearly leases keep their Ejar or Ejari number, deposit and rent cheques.
Made for serviced apartment and aparthotel operators, furnished apartments for families and business travellers and holiday homes and Airbnb hosts with many units in Shinas, from Shinas Port and Shinas Fort to Sur Bani Khuzaimah.

Shinas
A Serviced Apartments POS made for Shinas
Shinas, near the UAE border, has a ferry port linking it to Musandam, and its farms are known for Omani lime, while fishermen, boat repairers and local shops serve the villages along the coast.
The payments Shinas customers use
Take cash, cards and Apple Pay or "on account", and split one bill across methods; every payment lands in the day's cash-up.
5% VAT done right
VAT-compliant tax invoices; ready for Oman's Fawtara e-invoicing, with your VAT identification number (VATIN) on every invoice issued in Shinas.
Arabic and English
Staff in Shinas switch the screens between Arabic and English, and customers get bilingual receipts on paper or WhatsApp.
Branches across Oman
Open a second branch in Sohar and Saham and run both from one account, each with its own invoice numbering, stock and cash drawer.
Reports on Shinas time
Daily sales, shifts and reports close on Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4), so a late-night sale counts on the right day.

Serviced Apartments POS and local trade in Shinas
Late sessions after Shinas shifts
Shift work at the port means players arriving at odd hours, often after midnight. Late sessions still count on the right business day, time is billed fairly in short blocks after a grace period, and each shift closes with its own cash-up.
Rough-weather days in Shinas
When the weather keeps boats in harbour, young people in Shinas have time on their hands and the lounge can fill early. Membership hour packs, per-station timers and snack tabs keep a busy afternoon easy to bill.
Weekend play in a farming town
Young people from the farms around Shinas come into town at weekends and stay for hours. Prepaid hour packs on a membership card make long sessions simple, and each station's snacks and drinks are billed together when time stops.
