Nivasik in a minuteSample data

Where a business quietly loses money

Stock nobody counted

Your payment terminal knows what sold. It does not know what is left on the shelf, what went off or what walked out. Nivasik takes every sale off the stock line behind it.

The till that is short

One count at closing against what should be in the drawer: float, cash in, refunds, paid out. A gap is named the day it happens, not at the year end.

Money owed, in your head

Customer accounts, supplier bills and open tabs in one list, with what each owes and how long for. Nothing to reconcile on a Sunday.

Rooms and requests that slip

Every night charged, every guest request given an owner and a clock. A towel request cannot sit in a group chat, and a night cannot go unbilled unseen.

What you run from it

Open a sample business, right now

No sign-up and nothing to install. Invented numbers, in your currency.

How it works with your card reader

You take the card on the payment terminal you already own. Pick “card” on the bill, or key the amount, and Nivasik records the sale, the tip and the stock. It never sees a card number, which is why there is nothing to pay us per sale.

The trade-off, said now: Nivasik is not wired to the reader, so a card sale is one extra tap, and it does not open a cash drawer. Try the demo on your own counter before you decide.

Runs on what you already have.

Your laptop, tablet or phone, the card reader and the receipt printer you already own.

The price, first

Free for 45 days. US$24 list price for a counter, US$59 for a hotel up to 40 rooms; free during the trial. Flat, never per room or per sale.

Your payment terminal stays

Take the card on the payment terminal you own; Nivasik records the sale, the tip and the stock. No processing fees from us, no terminal to be tied to.

One set of books

The bill, the stock behind it, the staff who made it and the expense that paid for it are the same record, not four apps.

You can leave

No contract, no hardware to buy, no exit fee: ask for your data and we hand it over.

Every comparison

What to know in Canada

Read 4 November 2026 from the official pages linked. A rule can change; your accountant has the last word. Nivasik does not file tax or connect to a tax authority's system: where one is required, keep it and run Nivasik beside it.

  • GST/HST registrants charge and remit the tax. A small supplier, with C$30,000 or less in revenue in a single calendar quarter and over the last four consecutive quarters, need not register. Source
  • From 1 June 2025, Quebec restaurants subject to mandatory billing must send transaction data through a certified sales recording system (SRS) that works with Revenu Québec's WEB-SRM, and give customers the bills it produces. A POS that is not certified cannot be used for this. Source
  • A small supplier with C$30,000 or less in taxable revenue (in a single quarter and over four quarters) does not have to register for GST/HST. Tax lines on a bill are needed only once registered. Source
  • How customers pay: Interac debit (tap and chip-and-PIN), Visa/Mastercard/Amex credit cards, Interac e-Transfer, Apple Pay / Google Pay. Take it the way you already do and record it on the bill.

Straight answers

Does Nivasik take card payments?

No. You take the card payment on the payment terminal you already own, and Nivasik records it: the sale, the tip and the stock all update. Nivasik never sees a card number, so there are no processing fees from us and no terminal to be tied to. The trade-off is one extra tap per card sale, because Nivasik is not wired to the reader.

What does it cost?

Nothing for 45 days: it is free for 45 days this Christmas, an opening offer. The list prices are Counter US$24 a month per counter; Front desk US$59 a month per property up to 40 rooms; Requests US$19; Group US$45 per property from three, plus GST/HST where it applies. Annual is 12 months for the price of 10.

What happens when the free trial ends?

This is an opening offer. We may change it, or end it, at any time, without prior notice. The list prices on this site are what Nivasik costs. Nothing is charged during the trial, there is no card to enter, and before anything is charged to you we will tell you, in writing, how you pay. Your records stay yours and can be exported on request, with no exit fee.

Is there a contract?

No contract and no hardware to buy. You can stop any time; ask for your data and we hand it over.

Where is my data, and who runs Nivasik?

Your data is hosted in Singapore. Hosted on ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certified platforms. Nivasik itself holds no certification. The service is operated by the Nivasik Team from India. Data hosting in other countries is not available yet: if you need a data-processing agreement, ask before you start.

Will it print receipts and open my cash drawer?

Receipts print through your computer's print dialog. Nivasik does not open a cash drawer, and it does not drive a card reader. Try the demo on your own printer before you commit.

What support do I get?

Email and WhatsApp, with a reply within one business day. We are in India, so depending on where you are a message may be answered overnight.

Does it handle GST/HST?

You set a GST/HST rate on each item, and a price can include it or have it added. Nivasik does not file returns and does not choose the rate for you: your accountant does.

Is it payroll?

It keeps attendance, pay and advances and prints a payslip. It does not calculate or file payroll tax.

Is it in my language?

The product and these pages are in English today (and Hindi in India).

What does Nivasik not do?

Nivasik does not take card payments. A card payment is recorded in Nivasik while you take it on the reader you already own, and we never touch a card number. Receipts print through your computer's print dialog. Nivasik does not open a cash drawer. Nivasik is not a fiscal register, a tax-filing system or an e-invoicing system, and it does not file payroll tax. Your data is hosted in Singapore. EU and US data hosting are not available yet. If you need a data-processing agreement or hosting in Europe, ask us before you start. Support is by email and WhatsApp from India, with a reply within one business day: UK and European mornings overlap our day, US replies arrive overnight. Nivasik is a new product. We do not claim a customer count, a rating or a testimonial. Selling on Flipkart or Meesho is India-only, and is not part of these plans.

Run your own place on it, free

Every plan is free for 45 days this Christmas. The list price stays on the page, crossed out, so you know what it is worth; during the trial you pay nothing.
