Expiry dates you can see coming
Every batch carries its expiry date. The till sells the one that expires first, refuses expired stock, and the report shows what is at risk in kwacha.
The till that replaces your sales book
Sell, count stock and track every expiry date on the phone or laptop you already have, even through load shedding.

What the sales book can't tell you
Sunga keeps the same record as your book, sale by sale. Then it answers the questions a book never could.
The questionWith the bookWith Sunga
- How much did we take today?
- With the book: Add up the pages after closing.
- With Sunga: Counted as you sell, split into cash, Airtel Money, MTN MoMo and Zamtel Kwacha.
- What expires this month?
- With the book: Found on the shelf, often too late.
- With Sunga: Every batch carries its expiry date. The report lists what is due and what it cost you.
- What do we need to order?
- With the book: A walk round the shelves.
- With Sunga: Set a reorder point for each product and read the restock list.
- Who sold this, and when?
- With the book: Whoever's handwriting it is.
- With Sunga: Every sale, refund and stock change carries a name and a time.
Made for the pharmacy counter
Cash and mobile money
Change worked out for cash. For Airtel Money, MTN MoMo and Zamtel Kwacha, the customer's reference stays on the sale.
The day already counted
The end-of-day report splits takings by payment method, ready to check against the cash drawer and the mobile money statements.
Stock you can explain
Deliveries, sales, write-offs and corrections all go through one stock ledger, so every number on the shelf has a history.
Everything else Sunga does
At the counter
- Find a medicine by brand, generic name or barcode
- Receipts on 58 mm Bluetooth printers, or any printer through the browser
- Refunds and voids need a reason, and put the stock back
- Controlled medicines sold only by the staff you allow
- Standard-rated, zero-rated and exempt VAT on every receipt
In the back office
- Opening stock loaded from a spreadsheet, checked row by row
- Deliveries booked in with batch, expiry, cost and supplier
- Owner, pharmacist and cashier roles, or roles of your own
- More than one branch under one pharmacy account
- A login for every person, so every change has a name on it
Load shedding doesn't close the till
Sunga is built for the power cuts a Zambian counter lives with. Selling never waits on the network.
The power goes
The router drops and the till carries on. The catalogue and the stock are already on the phone.
Every sale is kept on the phone
Charge works as it always does. The sale is saved on the device before anything else, so it can't be lost.
Back online, it sends itself
Queued sales go to the server in the order they were rung up, each exactly once, and the numbers catch up.
On the counter, or from home
No special till to buy. Staff sell on a phone or laptop at the counter, and the owner opens the same account at home to see the day's takings and what needs ordering.
An Android phone
With Chrome. Add Sunga to the home screen like an app.
A Windows laptop
With Chrome or Edge, and a barcode scanner if you have one.
An iPhone
Works too, and prints through the browser.
A receipt printer, if you like
Any 58 mm Bluetooth thermal printer, or none at all.
Selling on Sunga in two days
Pilot pharmacies get us at the counter, not a manual. A monthly price is agreed before the pilot ends, and you only carry on if Sunga has earned it.
Day 1
We set up your pharmacy
Your account, a login for each person, your shop details and VAT, and your receipt printer if you have one.
Days 1 and 2
Your stock goes in
From your spreadsheet, or counted shelf by shelf with us. Every batch with its expiry date and cost.
Day 2
Your team learns the till
About an hour at the counter at a quiet time: sales, refunds, deliveries, the day's report, and power cuts.
Weeks 1 and 2
Sunga runs beside the book
Keep the book for two weeks and compare each evening. We visit weekly, and you decide at the end whether to carry on.
Built around Zambian rules
ZRA Smart InvoiceComing next
Not connected yet. Connecting Sunga to Smart Invoice is next on our list, and we will tell you exactly where it stands before you start.
Controlled medicines
Mark a product's schedule and only the staff you allow can sell it. A sale by anyone else is flagged for the owner.
VAT worked out for you
Set your rate and whether prices include VAT. Products can be standard-rated, zero-rated or exempt.
No patient data
Sales are anonymous by design: no customer names, no phone numbers and nothing about what a medicine is for.
Questions pharmacists ask
Something else? Ask us on WhatsApp
Yes, for selling. The till keeps your catalogue and stock on the device and saves every sale there first, then sends them when the connection returns. The first sign-in on a new device needs a connection, and so do receiving stock, reports and settings.
Count every sale, starting tomorrow
Tell us your pharmacy's name on WhatsApp and we will come and show you the till at your own counter.
