What do Tripoli businesses need from a POS?
Tripoli is Lebanon's second city and the commercial centre of the North. Trade runs from the old souks and khans to Azmi Street, Dam w Farez, and the port at El Mina, and a large share of it supplies shops in Akkar, Koura, Zgharta, and Minieh-Danniyeh.
The city is known across the country for its Arabic sweets, so many businesses sell by the kilo, box orders for weddings and holidays, and see most of their year's sales in Ramadan and around Eid.
Many shops here are family businesses that have run on a notebook for decades, with regular customers who settle their account at the end of the month. Any system has to cost little, need no special equipment, and keep that running tab accurate.
Which Tripoli businesses use it, and for what?
Sweets and pastry shops
Sell by the kilo or by the box, take holiday orders online with the customer's message attached, and track sugar, nuts, and ghee through recipes.

Which parts of Tripoli does it cover?

How do I keep track of customers who pay at the end of the month?
Record the balance as a customer debt instead of a line in a notebook. Each payment is logged against it, the debt moves from open to partial to paid, and the Debts page shows everything still outstanding.
The same works in reverse for suppliers: record what you owe each one and pay it down over time, so both sides of the ledger live in one place.
Can I prepare for Ramadan and Eid in advance?
Yes. Build holiday boxes and offers ahead of time with start and end dates, feature them at the top of your store, and announce opening hours or order cut-offs in the announcement bar. When the rush starts, everything is already live.
Frequently asked questions
Does YellowPOS work in El Mina, Abu Samra, and Dam w Farez?
Yes. It runs in a browser, so it works the same in every part of Tripoli. Set a delivery option for each area you serve — El Mina, Abu Samra, or Qalamoun — with its own fee.
What is the best POS system for a shop in Tripoli?
One that is affordable, needs no special hardware, handles USD and LBP, and keeps customer accounts. YellowPOS covers those, adds wholesale pricing and an online store, and costs from $15 a month with a 30-day free trial.
Can I sell to both retail customers and traders?
Yes. Give products a wholesale price alongside the retail price. A switch at the POS re-prices the whole cart to wholesale for a trader and back for a walk-in customer, and you can export the wholesale price list as a PDF.
Can I deliver outside Tripoli?
Yes. Create delivery options with their own fees for areas such as Koura, Zgharta, or Akkar. Customers pick one at checkout and set their address on Google Maps.
Is there someone in Tripoli to help me set it up?
Setup is remote and self-serve: you sign up, add or import products, and start selling. Support is available on WhatsApp, and the Store and Corporate plans include training sessions.
What happens when the internet cuts?
The POS keeps selling. Each sale is stored on the device and uploads automatically when the connection returns.
