State sales tax
6.25%
Applied per department, so taxable and exempt items ring correctly on the same receipt. Grocery staples stay exempt without the cashier deciding.
Massachusetts · MA
POS built for Massachusetts convenience, grocery and liquor stores
Storeveu ships with the Massachusetts rules already configured: the 6.25% sales tax, the 5 cent bottle bill, Massachusetts Lottery commission and settlement, and 21+ age checks on alcohol and tobacco. Nothing to hand-build before you open the drawer.
Serving independent retailers across Boston, Worcester, Springfield, Lowell, Cambridge, New Bedford and the rest of Massachusetts.
Massachusetts rules, already configured
These are the settings an MA store has to get right. Storeveu ships with them in place rather than leaving them for you to build.
Bottle deposit
5 cents per container
Massachusetts charges 5 cents on glass and plastic bottles and aluminium cans up to 32 oz. Storeveu adds the deposit as its own line, keeps it out of taxable subtotal, and the Bottle Redemption screen pays refunds back out with a running total.
Lottery commission
5.4% on sales
The Massachusetts rate is set at state level and inherited by every store, so no one retypes it. Scratch books settle on the state schedule, and end of shift ticket scans reconcile each active book automatically.
Alcohol and tobacco age
21 and over
Both categories prompt for date of birth at the register, and the scan data module keeps the tobacco reporting trail that manufacturer programs ask for.
Keeps selling when the internet drops
The register is offline first. Cash sales keep ringing and upload on their own when the connection returns.
Month to month after 3 months
Starter and Pro are billed per store with a 3 month minimum and no early termination fee on the software.
Your data stays yours
Every record is scoped to your organization and store, and access is gated by role.

Massachusetts questions
Does Storeveu handle the Massachusetts bottle bill?
Yes. The 5 cent deposit on glass and plastic bottles and aluminium cans up to 32 oz is applied automatically as a separate, non-taxable line. Redemptions are paid out through the Bottle Redemption screen, which counts containers and totals the refund so the drawer reconciles at close.
What lottery commission rate does it use for Massachusetts?
The 5.4% sales commission is configured at the state level, so every Massachusetts store inherits it and an individual store can still override it if their agreement differs. Commission is calculated on settlement, not per ticket, so the numbers match what the Lottery pays you.
Do I need a separate system for Massachusetts Lottery reconciliation?
No. Scratch books move through inventory, active, depleted and settled inside Storeveu. At end of shift the cashier scans the last ticket in each active book and the system works out tickets sold and the amount due, so the weekly settlement is already built when the invoice arrives.
Is Storeveu used by stores in the Boston area?
Yes. Storeveu is built for New England independent retail and runs in convenience, grocery and liquor stores across Massachusetts, including greater Boston, Worcester and Springfield. Ask for a reference store near you on the demo call.
Common questions
How much does Storeveu cost?
Every plan is priced per store and billed monthly. The software has a 3-month minimum, then runs month to month with no early termination fee. Starter covers the register, the back office and the AI assistant. Growth adds lottery, fuel, loyalty, invoice scanning and tobacco compliance. Restaurant is built for restaurants and bars, and Pro includes every add-on. Current prices are always on the pricing page.
Does Storeveu work offline?
Yes, for cash. The register is offline-first: it keeps ringing cash sales with no internet and uploads them on its own when the connection returns. Card terminals need the internet to reach the processor.
Is there a long-term contract?
The software has a 3-month minimum, then runs month to month with no early termination fee. Card processing is a separate 36-month agreement. Any early exit fee is listed on your application before you sign, and other charges can apply on a default, such as two months with no sales, so read the processing terms first. You can change tiers anytime.
Do I need special hardware?
No. Storeveu runs on standard Windows PCs with common receipt printers, cash drawers and Dejavoo terminals, bring your own, or buy the E15W dual-screen terminal.
How long does it take to switch from my current POS?
Most stores go live in 1-3 weeks. The team imports your catalog and customer list from systems like Square, Clover, Lightspeed or Heartland, usually overnight.
Can I manage multiple stores?
Yes. Run multiple locations from one back office with per-store pricing and inventory, plus a five-tier role hierarchy and custom roles.
Is my store data private and secure?
Every record is scoped to your organization and store, access is permission-gated by role, and one tenant can never see another’s data.
