Software for gold jewelry stores, from rate board to ledger

A gold jewelry store runs on the day’s rate, the scale and the customer ledger. Smart Jewelry POS keeps all three in one place, from the morning rate board to the evening till count.

Gold jewelry store software prices and records jewelry by karat and weight rather than by unit. Smart Jewelry POS sets each karat’s rate from the bullion price, bills pieces from their net weight, wastage and making, and keeps every customer’s and vendor’s balance in both grams and cash.

A day in a gold jewelry store

From the morning rate to the evening count

  1. Opening

    Set the day’s rate

    Bullion has already been fetched. Check the 24K, 22K, 21K and 18K board, per gram and per tola, and every price in the shop follows it.

  2. Morning

    Tag yesterday’s stock

    Pieces received yesterday are waiting in Pending Labels. Print every tag in one batch with gross, net and wastage weight on it.

  3. Midday

    Sell at the counter

    Scan the bangles, agree the wastage, take part cash and part card, and leave the rest on the customer’s ledger. Finalize and print.

  4. Afternoon

    Buy old gold

    Weigh a customer’s old jewellery, apply wastage and labour/kaat, pay at your buy rate or trade it in against today’s bill.

  5. Evening

    Settle with your vendor

    Record the gold you gave out and the pieces that came back. The vendor’s metal and cash balance updates on their own terms.

  6. Closing

    Close the till

    Count the drawer, drop cash to the safe or bank, and see today’s sales, gold sold and profit at today’s metal cost.

Gold, in grams

Balances in grams and cash

In a gold jewelry store, people owe each other metal as often as money. Each customer has a cash ledger and a separate gold account. When a customer deposits metal, the credit can carry labour/kaat in ratti, per 10 g or as a percentage, and the gold received goes into your raw metal stock at its physical weight.

Vendors work the same way, on their own wastage and making terms, so you always know how many grams are out with whom.

  • Customer ledger with overdue aging
  • Customer gold account in grams
  • Labour/Kaat in ratti, per 10 g or %
  • Vendor metal ledgers
  • Statements and slips for any period

Old gold

Buy old gold fairly, and on the record

Weigh the customer’s old jewellery, apply wastage and labour/kaat to reach the pure weight, and price it at your buy rate, which you can adjust before you finalize. Pay out in cash, by bank, or in gold, or trade it in against a sale so only the difference changes hands.

Bought metal can be melted in batches and stays in your raw metal stock until you use or sell it.

Questions

Gold jewelry store software FAQ

What is the best software for a gold jewelry store or gold shop?

Look for software that prices by weight and karat from a daily rate, handles wastage and making the way you quote them, tags every piece, and keeps customer and vendor balances in grams as well as cash. Smart Jewelry POS is built around exactly those jobs, with a 5-day free trial.

Can I keep 21K and 22K stock separately?

Yes. Every piece records its metal and karat, each karat has its own buy and sell rate, and stock reports break down by karat and category.

Does it handle customers who owe gold rather than money?

Yes. Each customer has a cash ledger and a gold account in grams. Metal they deposit can be credited with labour/kaat in ratti, per 10 g or as a percentage.

How much does it cost for one gold jewelry store?

The Starter plan is $7 a month for one store with 3 users and 500 products. Every plan includes every module, and the first 5 days are free.

Can I start without re-entering all my stock by hand?

Yes. Fill in the Excel template (or send us your existing sheet) and import it with photos. Our team helps with setup and training as part of getting started.
