Payment Terminal
If you choose a payment terminal, you can expand your payment options. It’s a great complement to Swish, which is already the standard at the register and in the online store. It communicates wirelessly with the register, and the total purchase amount is shown on the terminal’s display. This ensures there’s no chance of an incorrect amount being charged. Additional fees from the provider apply, such as transaction fees and terminal rental fees.

Checkout

Funds are deposited into your bank account as early as the next business day. Additional fees from the provider, such as transaction costs, apply.

Klarna In-Store
Let customers choose to pay for their purchase in installments at our checkout. If you sell higher-value items, the transaction may be more convenient for the customer if installment payments are offered as an option. A text message is sent from the point-of-sale system to the customer, who logs in with BankID in the Klarna app. From there, customers select a payment option and sign off on the purchase. The purchase is approved, and a receipt can be issued to the customer.

Warehouse
With the inventory module, you can let Contrl keep track of your inventory and the transactions that occur during sales. You can use multiple warehouses and storage locations and sort your goods into the correct locations. If you purchase goods in other currencies, you can easily convert them to the correct exchange rate upon delivery. You also have the option to conduct inventory counts of your entire inventory or selected warehouses. Since the system integrates with your accounting software, the cost of goods is also handled automatically. When a stock item is sold, the cost of goods is posted directly with an accounting entry.
Time & Schedule
The Time & Schedule module includes a time clock for employees to log their hours worked, as well as the ability to schedule staff. Add special events such as training sessions or other activities that require attention. You’ll get a clear overview of the recorded time and any discrepancies. Our time tracking system is cloud-based and can be accessed from a mobile phone.
Maintenance Plan
In the back office, you can keep track of and monitor your company’s tangible assets. These may include vehicles or other equipment used in your business. With the maintenance plan module, you can create your own checklists and reminders based on your assets.
Solid Insurance
Solid Försäkring is one of the leading niche insurance companies in the Nordic region specializing in property and casualty insurance. The target audience for its products consists of private individuals who primarily purchase insurance through our partners when they buy a product or service.
Cash Register
In addition to having the world’s simplest point-of-sale system, it’s integrated with other parts of the system. If you create an order in the Control Panel, it can be paid for at the register. If you offer services or activities, you can use the calendar features to see when your customers are booked. Or you can process deliveries right in the store. Swish is the default payment method.
Online Store
We’ll integrate our online store into your existing website. Build your website exactly the way you want it. We’ll make sure the online store is accessible with the click of a button. Let customers purchase a variety of products. Goods, services, and activities are just a few of the options that are often available for purchase. Swish payments are standard, but the online store can also be expanded to include Bambora checkout, credit card payments, and invoicing.

Service
With the service module, you can manage and bill for service work you’ve performed right from the register. In the color-coded overview, you can see which jobs are in progress and when you’ve marked them as complete for payment. You can create customer-specific orders with scheduled appointments and communicate directly with the customer using our text messaging service.

As a small business owner, it’s a constant challenge to keep track of every aspect of your business—from inventory and sales to profit margins and customer trends. Many companies use different systems to manage this, which can lead to fragmented data and inefficient management. If you’ve found it difficult to get a comprehensive view of your business, you’re not alone.
Deciding which products to purchase, which ones to clear out, and when it’s time to restock can be both time-consuming and risky. Many companies miss out on important insights that can be crucial for avoiding unnecessary costs or lost sales.
Analyze Your Sales and Inventory Data
One way to solve this is to use a system that helps you collect and analyze all your data in one place. Whether you currently use Excel spreadsheets, accounting systems, or other business platforms, a more integrated solution can save you time and provide you with more detailed insights.
With the right data at your fingertips, you can see which products are the most profitable and which ones may not be performing as well. For example, having insight into the margins for different products helps you focus on the ones that really make a difference for your business. You can also identify which products may be dragging down your profitability and take action in a timely manner.
Seasonal purchasing decisions
A common mistake many small businesses make is buying too much of the wrong products at the wrong time. By analyzing your sales data over time, you can identify patterns—such as which products sell best during different seasons. Tailoring your purchases based on these insights will help you avoid ending up with excess inventory and tying up capital in products that aren’t moving.
Seasonal data also allows you to better predict when to place orders, which can reduce the risk of inventory shrinkage and high inventory costs. Instead of guessing when it’s the right time to restock popular items, you can plan your purchases more strategically.
Automated insights and better decisions
There are several tools and systems on the market that help businesses gain an overview of inventory and sales, but what makes Contrl unique is its ability to automate insights into your business. By consolidating all data on sales, inventory, and margins in one place, you can make faster and better decisions without having to switch between different systems.
We understand that there are many options out there, but if you’re looking for a solution that truly gives you a comprehensive overview and helps you avoid costly mistakes, Contrl is a powerful tool for managing your business more effectively.
