Frequently asked questions
Zobaze is free — why pay for Flocci Mart POS?
If you need basic billing and stock, Zobaze's free plan is honestly good. Flocci Mart POS earns its credits when the store needs more: GST slabs, UPI QR receipts, automatic promotions, loyalty tiers, supplier POs and AI reordering — the operations layer beyond billing. The 14-day free demo lets you judge that for yourself.
Which handles GST better for an Indian store?
Flocci Mart POS is built around Indian GST — per-product slabs with mixed-rate receipts computed automatically. Zobaze supports taxes generically but doesn't emphasize GST-specific retail features on its core pages (July 2026).
Does Zobaze have purchase orders and supplier management?
Purchase orders are not listed among Zobaze's core features as of July 2026. In Flocci Mart POS, supplier POs (draft → send → receive, stock landing automatically) are a core module, fed by AI reorder suggestions.
Which works better offline?
Zobaze — its Android apps work offline and sync later. Flocci Mart POS is cloud-first in the browser and needs a connection, in exchange for one live workspace across every device with zero installs.
