DGC POS — POS Smart Solution

DGC POS (POS Smart Solution) is cloud-based software operated by the owner and operator of DGC POS (trade name), pending formal company registration details to be published on these legal pages. 100% free during public beta — no subscription fees or platform charges.

DGC POS — POS Smart Solution is a cloud-based software platform, offered free during public beta. No platform subscription fees are charged by us during public beta. Paid DGC POS Pro plans may be introduced later. The Service is operated under the DGC POS trade name. Formal company name, registered address, and registration number will be published on this site when registration is complete.

DGC POS uses a dual model: (1) DGC POS Community — open-source, self-hostable POS published on GitHub under an explicit open-source license; and (2) DGC POS Cloud — the hosted product at app.dgcpos.com, which is proprietary managed software governed by our Terms of Use. Free cloud access during public beta is not the same as open-sourcing the entire cloud platform. Paid DGC POS Pro may be offered later for advanced features.

DGC POS uses a dual model: (1) DGC POS Community — open-source, self-hostable POS published on GitHub under an explicit open-source license; and (2) DGC POS Cloud — the hosted product at app.dgcpos.com, which is proprietary managed software governed by our Terms of Use. Free cloud access during public beta is not the same as open-sourcing the entire cloud platform. Paid DGC POS Pro may be offered later for advanced features.

1. Two products — clear split

  • DGC POS Community (open source) — self-hostable retail POS. Source is public on GitHub under AGPL-3.0. You may inspect, self-host, and contribute under that license.
  • DGC POS Cloud (hosted) — the managed service at app.dgcpos.com. Free during public beta, governed by our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. Cloud platform code is not published as open source.

2. Community repository

Official open-source repository: github.com/Guru9115/dgcpos-community

  • License: AGPL-3.0 (see LICENSE in the repository)
  • Self-host docs and issues: use that repository
  • No warranty — production use of Community is at your own risk

3. What “free cloud” means (beta)

  • Start and run a store on app.dgcpos.com at no platform fee during public beta
  • Core POS features offered in the free cloud tier
  • Free beta is a product decision — separate from open-source licensing

Online payment gateways may be limited during beta. Always check current checkout options in the app. Do not assume live eSewa, Stripe, or other rails unless enabled for your workspace.

4. DGC POS Pro (future)

Advanced commercial features may later be offered as DGC POS Pro (paid) on the Cloud product. Pricing and terms will be published before any charges apply. Community remains available for self-host under its open-source license.

5. Contributions

Bug reports and pull requests to the Community repository are welcome under that repo’s contribution guidelines. Unless a separate written agreement says otherwise, contributions may be used to improve DGC POS products as described in our Terms.
