Cash Payment Rounding

Overview

Cash rounding rounds the final total only when the customer pays in cash — useful in countries where the smallest coin in circulation is bigger than your prices' precision (e.g. where the smallest coin is 10¢, totals like $4.83 round to $4.80).

It's an outlet setting, applied at checkout on the POS, and never affects card / wallet / voucher payments — those still take the exact amount.

How it works

Set two things per outlet:

Setting	What it does
Rounding Mode	How the total is rounded — Math (nearest), Up, or Down.
Rounding Value	The increment to round to — pick one of 10, 1, 0.1 or 0.01. The default is 0.01.
Only Apply Rounding on Cash Payments	When on, rounding only applies to cash; other tender stays exact. Recommended.

The POS shows the customer the rounded cash total when cash is selected as the payment method.

Default setup

Bean & Brew example: round cash totals to the nearest $0.10.

1. In the admin sidebar open Outlets.
2. Click the Edit icon on the outlet.
3. Open the ORDERING tab.
4. Scroll to Rounding Settings:
   • Rounding Mode — Math (rounds to nearest — $4.83 → $4.80, $4.86 → $4.90).
   • Rounding Value — 0.1.
   • Only Apply Rounding on Cash Payments — on.
5. Save.
6. On the POS sell screen tap Refresh to pull the new setting down.

Modes

• Math — round to the nearest increment. 0.13 → 0.10, 0.16 → 0.20. This is the typical retail mode.
• Up — always round up. 0.11 → 0.20. Use sparingly — customers usually don't appreciate it.
• Down — always round down. 0.14 → 0.10. Common when local rules require you to favour the customer.
