The self-hosted KORONA POS alternative
Vendra — Self-hosted POS & inventory engineered so overselling is impossible. Own it once, run it on your own server, and stop paying KORONA POS every month.
Stop renting KORONA POS
1 month of KORONA POS equals this one-time price.
Assumption: The entry tier per terminal per month; every extra till is another $59, and the food and invoicing modules add $10 per register each. Vendra has no per-terminal meter: one payment covers every till in the shop.
How KORONA POS pricing grows with you
KORONA meters by TERMINAL: the price is per till per month, and modules stack per register on top.

What KORONA POS does that we don't
KORONA is transparent and contract-free, and it scales to franchise and ticketed venues with dedicated modules.

Who should stay with KORONA POS
Stay with KORONA if you run several tills, a franchise, or a ticketed venue and want a hosted vendor with those modules. Vendra is a one-till-or-many POS on your own server with no module bill. Full honest limitations are on the product page.
Why owning beats renting KORONA POS
- One payment. No monthly, per-seat, or per-location fees — the license is perpetual.
- Your data stays on your server. It never lives in KORONA POS's cloud.
- No plan ceilings. Records and users are limited by your hosting, not a pricing tier.
- It keeps working if the vendor doesn't. Self-hosted software can't be sunset or price-hiked out from under you.
Fair trade-offs: you host it, back it up, and apply updates yourself — see the product page for honest limitations, and the full Vendra vs KORONA POS comparison.
