Tres leches, 10″Photo attached · balance dueGetBakeryPOS is hosted point-of-sale software built around how bakeries actually sell: by pre-order, by the cake, by the kilo and by the tray. It takes deposits on future pickups, keeps custom cake details and photos on the order, prices weighed items from scale labels, builds tomorrow’s production list, tracks lots and expiry dates, and publishes an online store from your products.
The Baker’s Almanac
Every bakery lives by a calendar of orders, not just a clock. Scroll the year: each peak is matched with the part of GetBakeryPOS that keeps it under control.
January
Jan 6, Día de Reyes · Panaderías
Families order the Rosca for January 6, often two or three at a time, and the orders arrive in December. Every unpaid Rosca left on the shelf on January 7 is a loss.
Take Rosca pre-orders from December 1 with a pickup date and a deposit; the bake list for Jan 5 builds itself.
Pre-orders & depositsFebruary
Feb 14 · Tết Feb 6, 2027 · Every bakery; Vietnamese bakeries for Tết
Heart cakes with photo prints, names in icing, a dozen strawberry tarts. Every order is a little different, and the details get lost on sticky notes.
Custom cake orders keep the size, flavour, inscription, reference photo and deposit on one order the decorator can open.
Custom cake ordersFebruary–March
Ramadan begins ≈ Feb 8, 2027 · Arab and South Asian bakeries
Trading shifts to the hours before iftar. Kunafa, maamoul and dates sell by weight, and the case empties in ninety minutes.
Weigh at the scale, print a barcode label, scan it at the till: the price per kilo is never typed by hand.
Weighing scalesMarch–April
Eid ≈ Mar 10, 2027 · Easter Mar 28, 2027 · Mithai shops, Arab sweets, Easter breads
Mithai boxes by the kilo, corporate orders of two hundred boxes, and Easter breads in the same fortnight. Stock runs out on the busiest day of the year.
Lot numbers on every batch and expiry dates on every box, so the oldest stock sells first and nothing past date reaches a customer.
Expiry & lot trackingMay
May 10 (Mexico) · May 9, 2027 (US) · Panaderías, every cake shop
The biggest cake week of the year for many shops: two Mother's Days a day apart, and a decorating team working through the night.
Tomorrow's production list merges pre-orders with your par levels, split by station: oven, decorating, packing.
Daily production listsJune–July
Every weekend through summer · Celebration cake specialists
Tiered cakes booked months ahead with a tasting, a deposit and a final balance due the week before. One missed balance and the cake leaves unpaid.
Balances due show on the order; the customer gets the outstanding amount at pickup, never a surprise.
Pre-orders & depositsAugust
Mid-August · Bánh mì shops, bakeries supplying cafés
Standing orders restart: forty baguettes for the bánh mì counter at 6 a.m., pineapple buns for the café down the road, invoices on 15-day terms.
Wholesale accounts with their own price list, credit limit and standing order, invoiced on terms.
Wholesale accountsSeptember
Sept 15, 2027 (Sept 25, 2026) · Chinese and Vietnamese bakeries
Mooncake boxes are pre-ordered for weeks, by families and by companies. Fillings cost real money: lotus paste, salted yolks, nuts.
Recipe costing tells you what one mooncake really costs once wastage is counted, before you print the price list.
Recipe costingOctober–November
Nov 1–2 · Diwali Nov 8, 2026 · Panaderías, mithai shops
Pan de muerto sells from mid-October, from the case and by the dozen. Shops with two or three locations move dough and finished bread between them every morning.
Transfer stock between shops in two taps, with one catalogue and per-location prices.
Multi-locationNovember
Nov 26, 2026 · US bakeries
Pie pre-orders close on Monday, pickup runs Wednesday all day, and the line goes out the door. Customers want to order online, not call.
Your online store is generated from your catalogue: pies, sizes, pickup slots, deposits. No separate website to update.
Online storeDecember
Dec 24–31 · Every bakery
Cookie trays, yule logs, office party orders, New Year cakes in Dubai and Karachi, and the Rosca orders for January already coming in.
Start in a quiet week: sign up, import the catalogue, and the store is live before the holiday rush.
How it worksCustom cake orders
A celebration cake is four decisions and a payment. The order keeps all of them together, so the decorator never works from a screenshot.
Drag the cake to spin it. Scroll or use the slider to pull the tiers apart.

These are sample reviews, written to show how bakeries use each feature. Real, named reviews replace them as customers share them.
“Our Rosca orders used to live in a spiral notebook. Now every order has a pickup day and a deposit, and on January 5 the bake list tells us exactly how many to make.”
“Mooncake boxes have a lot number and a best-by date on the label. When a customer asks, we can tell which batch it came from in seconds.”
“Staff weigh the barfi, the scale prints the sticker, the counter scans it. Nobody types a price per kilo any more, so nobody types it wrong on Eid.”
“The customer's reference photo, the inscription and the deposit are all on the order. Our decorator opens it on the tablet instead of reading WhatsApp screenshots.”
“Three restaurants take baguettes every morning on a standing order. The invoices go out on terms and I can see who still owes for last week.”

The best bakery POS is one that handles the work a bakery does that a coffee shop doesn’t: pre-orders with pickup dates and deposits, custom cake orders, items sold by weight, a daily production list and expiry dates. GetBakeryPOS includes all of these from the first paid plan up, at a published monthly price with no contract.
Yes. Every order can carry a pickup date and time, a deposit (fixed or a percentage) and the balance due. Balances show on the order and are collected at pickup. Online pre-orders come through your auto-generated store.
Yes. Label scales print a barcode that carries the product code and the weight; the register reads it and prices the item by weight. You set the barcode format once in settings. See the scale guide.
Counter is $39/month per location in the US, Bakehouse $69 and Commissary $109. The UAE and Pakistan have their own local prices (AED with VAT included, PKR plus sales tax). Paying yearly gives you 2 months free. See pricing.
No contract and no setup fee for the POS. You can cancel at the end of any month. The 30-day trial does not ask for a card.
No. Card payments run through your own processor, at the rate you agree with them. We charge only the monthly plan.
No. It runs in the browser on a tablet, laptop or PC, hosted by us. You sign up, add your shop and products, and start selling. Printers, scanners, scales and cash drawers plug into the device at the counter.
Yes. Export your items and customers to CSV and import them. We help for free during the trial. See switching.
Yes. Each user can work in their own language, and receipts can print in the language your customers read. Arabic and Urdu run right-to-left. See languages.
Every plan includes an online store generated from your catalogue, so products, prices and photos stay in sync. If you want a custom designed site, the managed website or the Bakery Bundle adds one. See online store.
No question matches that. Try another word, or ask us on the demo.
