HANSEATIC POS-CASH

What HANSEATIC POS-CASH does

HANSEATIC POS-CASH is a Hamburg-based provider of cloud-based point-of-sale (POS) software targeting small and medium-sized businesses across four German-speaking verticals: gastronomy (restaurants, cafés, bars, fast-food, 20–300+ seats), retail (food stores, boutiques, bakeries, kiosks), delivery services, and service providers (hairdressers, beauty, taxi, cleaning, workshops). The company operates under the legal entity MTE-Vertriebs- und Verwaltungs GmbH and was founded in 2019 by CEO Moritz Tim Ebert; COO Luisa and Head of Sales & Partner Management Amir round out a team of 12–20 based in Hamburg-Niendorf.

The product is architected as four integrated modules — Kasse (cash register), Tischplan (table plan), Cloud (real-time reporting), and Payment (integrated card acceptance) — delivered on Android-based hardware (Sunmi T2 family, 15"/19" touch bundles, Mobile M2 handhelds, SUNMI S2 scale-POS). Underpinning technical differentiators include offline-capable operation with automatic cloud synchronization, integrated card payment without a separate terminal (Apple Pay, Google Pay, contactless, tips), multi-location management in the base tariff, EU-calibrated weighing scales, and a drag-and-drop Tischplan with kitchen routing. The platform is fully compliant with German mandates — TSE (Cloud-TSE included in subscription), GoBD, KassenSichV, DSFinV-K export, and DSGVO (data hosted on Frankfurt servers with a named Data Protection Officer) — and carries a 4.9/5 Google rating across 412 reviews used by ~2,500+ active businesses.

The business model combines recurring software subscription at a flat €19/month (no tiered add-ons) with one-time hardware sales (terminals, bundles, printers, scanners from €75 to €3,800) and hardware rental from €19/month. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via website demo forms, free 48-hour setup with data migration, German-language support from Hamburg, and an in-house e-commerce hardware shop. GTM is single-country domestic with no resellers. Bootstrapped under the descriptor "aus eigener Kraft," the company has historically declined external investment and monetizes mainly through cross-sell to a long tail of SMB customers; key partners include Vert (Deutsche Bank/Fiserv JV, March 2024), Smaboo, Sparkasse POS, VR-Payment, Clover, Shopify/WooCommerce, restablo.de and Loyal.
