For gaming centres and internet cafes in Ghana

Run your whole cafe from one PC.

Salinko Cafe Manager locks every customer PC until time is paid for, counts it down, and keeps every cedi on record. Sell time at the counter or let customers pay with mobile money right on the PC.

Features

Everything the counter needs, nothing it doesn't

Built with cafe owners: simple enough for a new cashier, strict enough that no minute goes unpaid.

Live PC dashboard

See every PC at a glance: in use, idle, admin or offline, who is on it and how much time is left.

Lock screen on every PC

Customer PCs stay locked until someone signs in with paid time, and lock again the second it runs out.

Time packages and top-ups

Set your own packages and prices. Top up a customer's time in two clicks, even while they play.

Mobile money on the PC

Customers buy time on the lock screen with MTN, Telecel or AirtelTigo MoMo. The PC unlocks when the payment lands.

Sales you can trust

Every sale and top-up is logged with the cashier's name. Filter by day, month or staff and export to PDF.

Daily cash report by email

Each night you get the cash each cashier took, so you know what should be in the drawer without being there.

Remote control

Restart, shut down or wake PCs from the counter, move a customer to another PC, or log them out.

Staff accounts

Admins see everything; cashiers only sell and top up. Switch operator without closing the app.

Backups and updates

Daily automatic backups with one-click restore, and Check for Update installs new versions for you.

How it works

One installer. Two roles. Ten minutes.

The same setup file goes on every PC; it asks which one it is.

Install the PC Manager on the counter PC

Pick "PC Manager", name your business and create your Admin login.

Install the Lockscreen on each customer PC

Pick "Lockscreen", then type the counter PC's address in the lock screen's Settings. The PC appears on the dashboard.

Add packages and start selling

Set your prices, create customer accounts at the counter, or switch on mobile money so customers serve themselves.

Pay only when you earn

No upfront cost. The license is 4% of the sales the app records in each 30-day period, paid with mobile money or card from inside the app. If the cafe makes nothing, you pay nothing.
