Point of sale software for Dallas counters, bars, food halls and stadium stands.

Codeeo handles POS software development Dallas merchants use to ring up sales, take cards and tips, and close out the day without a spreadsheet. We build tablet and phone checkout apps, card terminal links, staff tools and an owner dashboard for restaurants in Deep Ellum and Bishop Arts, boutiques in Uptown and Knox Henderson, and vendors who sell at events around Fair Park. The goal is simple: fast lines at the counter and numbers you trust at close.

Texas sales tax is collected locally as well as by the state, card rules keep changing and busy Saturday nights punish slow screens. Your POS has to handle all three at once, so we design around the way your Dallas staff actually sell, not around a generic demo. That means testing on your own tablets, your own menu and your own processor before anything goes live.

Built for
Restaurants, bars, retail shops, salons and event vendors in Dallas and the surrounding cities that need a checkout built around their own floor.
Typical timeline
We agree the first release in discovery, then put the delivery plan in writing before any screen is designed, so you know what lands when.
What you own
Your code repository, your Apple and Google developer accounts, the back office, and every sale, refund and customer record your stores produce.

What a Dallas POS can do

Checkout features built for how Dallas sells.

A Dallas taco counter, a Henderson Avenue clothing store and a concession stand on a game night share almost nothing except the need to take payment quickly and record it correctly. So we never start from a fixed feature list. We start from the busiest hour you have, watch how orders, payments and tips move through it, and decide which parts belong in the first release. The items below are the ones Dallas operators ask for most often. Some will matter to you on day one; others can wait for a later version once the basics run cleanly. Every feature connects to one back office, so the person counting the drawer and the person reading the weekly report see the same numbers. We work with you remotely from our team of 80+ across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi, with discovery and design reviews by video call.

Explain your project
  • Fast counter and table checkout

    Large buttons, modifiers that make sense for your menu or product range, split checks, seat numbers for full service rooms and quick reorders for regulars. Screens are tested on the tablets your staff hold, under the lighting of a dark bar or a bright patio, so a new hire can ring a sale on the first shift.

    Shorter lines when the dinner rush or a game crowd arrives.

  • Card terminals and wallets

    Tap, chip and swipe through the card reader you choose, plus Apple Pay and Google Pay. Card data stays inside a certified terminal and the processor, never in our app, which keeps your PCI DSS scope narrow and your annual questionnaire simpler.

    Customers pay the way they want and card numbers never touch your servers.

  • Texas sales tax by location

    Texas sales tax combines a state rate with local rates set by the city, the county, the transit authority and special districts. The POS stores the right combined rate for each Dallas area location, treats taxable and exempt items differently, and lets you switch on the annual back to school sales tax holiday for qualifying clothing and supplies without editing every product by hand.

    Tax on every receipt matches what you report to the Comptroller.

  • Tips, tip pooling and payouts

    Suggested tip screens you control, tips on card and cash, end of shift tip reports and pooling rules your managers set. Totals feed straight into payroll exports so nobody retypes them from a receipt roll at two in the morning.

    Servers and bartenders see exactly what they earned each shift.

  • Offline sales mode

    Stadium concourses, outdoor markets and spring storms all knock out connections. The app keeps selling, stores each transaction securely on the device and sends it once the network returns, with clear limits on how much offline card risk you are willing to accept.

    Sales continue when the Wi-Fi drops, and nothing is lost.

  • English and Spanish screens

    Many Dallas kitchens and floors run in both languages. Staff can switch the interface to Spanish while receipts, menus and customer screens stay in the language your guests read.

    Fewer mistakes from staff working in their second language.

  • Online ordering on the same menu

    Pickup and delivery orders from your website or app land on the same order screen and kitchen display as walk-in sales, with item availability shared, so you never sell a brisket plate you ran out of an hour ago.

    One menu and one order queue for every channel.

  • Owner dashboard and close out

    Daily sales by location, hour and employee, voids and discounts with reasons, cash drawer variances and card settlement matching. Owners with sites in Dallas, Plano and Fort Worth see each one separately and together, and can export any report for their bookkeeper in one click.

    Close the day in minutes and spot problems by morning.

  • Kitchen and bar displays

    Orders route to the right station the moment they are paid or fired: grill, fryer, bar or expo. Tickets show modifiers and allergy notes in large type, timers turn red when a plate runs late, and bumped items update the server's screen. Busy Dallas patios no longer depend on paper tickets blowing off the rail.

    Kitchens cook in the right order and servers know when food is ready.

  • Loyalty and customer records

    Phone number lookup, points or visit rewards and simple offers, with consent recorded and data handled in line with the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act where it applies to your business.

    Regulars are recognized without a separate loyalty app.

Who this is for

Four Dallas businesses that outgrow off the shelf checkout.

Packaged POS products suit plenty of single shops. A custom build makes sense when your process does not fit their menus, when fees and add-ons stack up across several sites, or when you want to own the data and the roadmap. Custom POS software development Dallas owners commission from us is usually triggered by one of four moments: a second or third location, a move into events, a switch of processor, or a reporting gap that keeps finance up late. These are the Dallas situations where we see that tipping point most often, and how we approach each one.

01

Restaurant groups with several concepts

A group running a barbecue spot in Deep Ellum, a cocktail bar in Uptown and a brunch place in Bishop Arts often ends up with three different systems. We build one POS with a menu and tax setup per concept, a shared kitchen display approach and one reporting view for the owners. Staff who move between locations learn a single set of screens, and finance stops merging exports from separate vendors at month end.

One login per person, every concept in one report.

02

Event and concession vendors

Vendors who work the State Fair of Texas at Fair Park, arena nights and weekend festivals need checkout that runs on phones, survives patchy coverage and handles very fast, simple orders. We design for queue speed first: few taps, preset items, tap to pay, and offline storage with sync after the event. Inventory per stand and staff cash accountability come as part of the build, and a supervisor view shows which stand is running low on cups or cash.

Built for a two hour rush, not an all day trickle.

03

Specialty retail and boutiques

Stores in Highland Park Village, NorthPark Center or Knox Henderson often need things generic retail POS handles badly: alterations tickets, special orders, consignment splits, gift cards and appointment based selling. We build those flows into the checkout so the sales associate stays with the customer instead of walking to a back office computer.

04

Salons, studios and service businesses

Barbers, nail studios and fitness studios across Oak Lawn and the Design District sell time as well as products. The POS links appointments to the checkout, splits commission between stylists, handles deposits and no-show rules, and tracks tips by provider. Clients get text reminders and receipts, and the owner sees revenue by chair or room.

How we build a Dallas point of sale system, step by step.

  1. 01Shift observation by videoWe walk through a real shift with you over video, screen by screen, noting where staff wait, retype or reach for a calculator. That list becomes the scope.
  2. 02Payments and tax planWe choose a processor and terminal model with you, map Texas state and local tax for each location, and agree how tips, refunds and voids should behave.
  3. 03Counter screen designClickable prototypes go onto a tablet at your counter so cashiers can try them during a quiet hour and tell us what slows them down.
  4. 04Build in short releasesWe ship working pieces every couple of weeks, starting with checkout and payment, then tips, reports, online orders and loyalty in the order you need them.
  5. 05Pilot at one locationOne Dallas site runs the new POS alongside a fallback. We fix what real customers and real Friday nights expose before rolling to every store.
  6. 06Rollout and supportRemaining locations switch over one at a time, with staff guides in English and Spanish and ongoing updates as card and tax rules change.

Technology

What we build this with.

We pick the app framework, terminal SDK and cloud setup around your hardware, your processor and the people who will maintain the system after launch. Nothing is locked to a proprietary platform you cannot take elsewhere. Typical builds pair a cross platform tablet app with a cloud back office and the payment SDK your processor certifies.

Questions Dallas owners ask about custom POS software.

It depends on locations, payment setup and how many integrations the first release needs.

A single concept with counter checkout, card payments, Texas tax and basic reports moves much faster than a multi-concept group that also needs kitchen displays, online ordering, payroll exports and loyalty. Processor approval and terminal certification also affect timing. We set the order of work in discovery and write the delivery plan down before design begins, so you can plan training and switchover around your own calendar.
