How Katalo compares to Pawoon

Pawoon is an Indonesian cloud POS aimed at F&B and retail businesses, offered on paid subscription plans.

Katalo isn't trying to out-feature a dedicated retail POS. Its strength is being free and combining an online catalog, a shareable selling link, and an in-store POS in a single account — ideal for small sellers who do a bit of everything.

When Katalo is the better fit

If you sell both online and in person, want to start today without a subscription, and don't need heavy retail features, Katalo covers the essentials at no cost.
