The self-hosted KORONA POS alternative

Vendra: Self-hosted POS and inventory that will not sell below zero recorded stock, even when two tills sell the last unit at the same moment. Own it once, run it on your own server, and stop paying KORONA POS every month.

Stop renting KORONA POS.

Rented KORONA POS Core $59 per month, per terminal; Retail $79; Plus $99 — modules extra (Food +$10/register/month, Invoicing +$10/register/month, Ticketing +$50/entry gate/month); "No setup fees", "No forced Contracts" [1] billed every month, for as long as you use it; your data in their cloud

$59 once · self-hosted · your data on your server

1 month of KORONA POS costs what Vendra costs once.

Buy once

How we counted: 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

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.

What Vendra deliberately doesn't do is on its 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 by a pricing tier.

It keeps working if the vendor doesn't

Self-hosted software can't be sunset or repriced out from under you.

The fair trade-offs: you host it, back it up and apply updates yourself. See the product page for its limits, and the full Vendra vs renting comparison.

Questions about moving off KORONA POS.

Does it process card payments online?
No — it records cash/card tender and change; it doesn't process cards online.
Can I run multiple stores?
No — one shop per installation: one stock ledger, one set of registers. A second shop runs as a second installation on its own domain or subdomain, which the Extended license covers.
Does barcode scanning need special drivers?
No — keyboard-wedge USB scanners just work.
MySQL or SQLite?
Either — MySQL for shared hosting, SQLite for a local trial.
