Who GioBiz is for
Shops and market traders
Retail shops, market stalls, boutiques and mini-marts that sell from stock every day.
Pharmacies and electronics sellers
Businesses that need to know exactly how much of each product is left.

Owners who leave staff to sell and want every sale tied to the person who made it.
Businesses leaving the notebook
Anyone moving from a notebook, memory or WhatsApp screenshots to proper records.
Problems GioBiz helps with
"I don't know what is left in the shop"
Stock goes down by itself when a sale is recorded, and you get a low-stock warning.
"Customers owe me and I forget"
The credit book records who owes you and how much, and you can send a WhatsApp reminder in one tap.
"I can't see what staff did while I was away"
Every critical action is logged with the staff member and the time.
"Orders come from everywhere"
Store-link, WhatsApp, Instagram and walk-in orders are kept in one inbox, tagged by where they came from.

How it works
- Register your business. No payment is needed to start.

The daily work, in detail
Cash and credit sales
Record whether a customer paid now or will pay later. A credit sale goes into Customer Credit with the customer and the amount, so the debt is not lost. You can set a limit per customer and send a reminder on WhatsApp.
Inventory and low stock
Every product carries its quantity. Sales reduce it, and GioBiz warns you before an item runs out. Stock Check lets you count the shelves and approve any difference before your records change.
Staff roles, PINs and owner control
The owner is always in authority. Staff sell; owners approve. Each staff member signs in with their own PIN, and their actions are recorded with their name and the time.
When the internet goes off
Sales made while the connection is down wait in a queue on the phone and are sent when it comes back.
More than one shop
One business can run more than one shop, branch or warehouse. Each place keeps its own stock, staff can be placed at one shop, and Transfer moves stock between your places with a record on both sides. How many shops your plan includes is shown on the pricing page.
Daily reports for the owner
- Sales Report on your phone for today, yesterday, this week or any date range: what sold, by product, by staff member and by where the order came from.
- Close day: count the cash at closing and record anything short or over.
- End-of-day summary by email: today's sales summary sent to you each evening, if you switch it on.
- Receipts go to customers on paper, on WhatsApp or as a picture.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a free trial?
Yes. A new business account gets a free trial: 3 months for the first 300 businesses after launch, then 30 days for every new business after that on its Operation, and no payment is needed to start. The trial runs once per account. Current monthly prices are on the GioBiz pricing page.
Do I need a computer?
No. GioBiz is built to run on a phone, in the web browser. You can also open it on a computer if you have one.
Can my staff sell without seeing everything?
Yes. You add staff as Manager or Staff, and each role sees different things. Staff sign in with a PIN on the shop device, so they do not need an email address.
Do my customers need to install an app?
No. Your shop gets a store link. Customers open it in any browser, choose items and order without creating an account. The order lands in your GioBiz inbox.
What happens if the internet goes off while I am selling?
The sale is kept on the phone in a queue and sent to GioBiz when the connection comes back.
Can I cancel?
Yes. There are no contracts and no cancellation fees. Your data remains accessible for 30 days after your last payment period ends so you can export it.
