Pharmacy POS Kenya
POS System for Pharmacies in Kenya
sell.ke helps Kenyan pharmacies manage prescription and OTC stock, track expiry dates by batch, accept M-Pesa at the dispensing counter, and stay KRA eTIMS compliant — all in one system.
Why pharmacies need a specialised POS
A standard retail POS treats all products the same. Pharmacies need expiry-date tracking per batch, separation of prescription and OTC stock, and an audit trail for scheduled medicines. sell.ke adds these pharmacy-specific workflows on top of its core POS so your team doesn't need two separate systems.
Kenyan pharmacy owners also deal with M-Pesa as the dominant payment method — and often see multiple payment types in a single transaction (e.g., NHIF covers part, M-Pesa covers the rest). sell.ke handles split-payment checkout and reconciles each payment channel separately in your daily report.

Every feature below was shaped by feedback from pharmacists and pharmacy owners across Kenya.

Expiry date tracking
Set expiry dates per batch. Get alerts 30, 60 and 90 days before products expire so you can run promotions before wastage.
M-Pesa, NHIF & cash checkout

Controlled drug audit log
Every transaction for scheduled medicines records the cashier, quantity, and timestamp for regulatory inspection readiness.

KRA eTIMS receipts

Stop losing money to expired stock
