Why shops choose SlickCell
What you get whichever system you are leaving
- Every device is its own record
- One phone is one unit with its own IMEI or serial, cost, condition, battery health, selling price, supplier and history. Quantity is counted from the units, never typed, so you see the exact profit on the exact phone you sold.
- The VAT margin scheme, per item
- Second-hand stock can be taxed on the margin between what you paid for that unit and what you sold it for, reported separately from standard-rated sales. Because every device carries its own purchase cost, the per-item record the margin scheme asks for is already there.
- Repairs where the money adds up
- A deposit is taken against the job, parts are committed from stock, extra work is quoted before the price changes, a part payment leaves a real balance, and a paid invoice is locked. The ticket, the till, the invoice and the report all agree.
- Trade-ins as a tracked purchase
- Inspect, approve, pay the seller by cash, bank transfer or credit against a sale, and the device enters stock as its own unit with its real acquisition cost.
- Customers kept up to date by text, email and QR
- Text or email a customer from the job on a template. Every receipt and repair label carries a QR code that opens a live tracking page, with no app and no login.
- Any staff phone is a barcode scanner
- Pair a phone to the till from a QR code on screen and every scan lands in the open sale. No app, no hardware to buy.
- Suppliers connected inside the system
- A purchase order lands directly in a connected supplier's own account; they confirm or re-quote, reserve and dispatch, and you book in what actually arrived.
- Hosted in London, sealed per shop
- The database runs in London on every plan, encrypted in transit and at rest, with row-level security on every table, two-factor sign-in, database-enforced roles and an append-only audit trail.
- Every feature on every plan
- From £39 a month excluding VAT, in pounds, with a fourteen-day free trial you start yourself: no card and no sales call. No per-transaction fees, and you keep the card machine you already have.
