OpticPOS vs Invoay

Generic retail billing with optional optical add-on

Invoay is a general-purpose retail billing app — great for kirana stores, salons, and small retailers. But an optician is not a generic retailer. If your real differentiator is the Rx, the lens spec, the lab workflow, and the recall cycle, generic billing software will fight you at every step. OpticPOS is purpose-built for opticians from the ground up.

Our honest verdict

Which one is right for you?

  • 1.Choose OpticPOS if: you actually need an Rx database, a lab job-card lifecycle, lens configurator, and the optical-EHR foundation — in other words, you run an optical shop, not a generic retail store.
  • 2.Choose Invoay if: you've outgrown a notebook + calculator but optical-specific workflows are a nice-to-have, not a need-to-have. Or you run multiple non-optical businesses on the same platform.
