Telegram Alerts

Leave the counter without going blind. QuickPOS pushes daily summaries and the alerts an owner actually needs — low stock, out of stock, expiry and security — straight to a Telegram chat.

Your shop, reporting to your phone

You can't stand at the till all day, and you shouldn't have to. QuickPOS connects to Telegram so the things worth knowing find you wherever you are — no new app to learn, just messages in a chat you already check.

  • Daily summary — sales total, receipt count and top products.
  • Low-stock alerts — when an item drops below its reorder point.
  • Out-of-stock alerts — the moment a product hits zero.
  • Expiry alerts — batches approaching their date, in good time.
  • Security alerts — sensitive events like a drawer opened outside a sale.

Simple to set up, quiet by default

Connect a bot token and a chat ID, choose which alerts you want, and QuickPOS handles the rest. You can send a test alert to confirm it's wired up. Because it runs off the same data as your reports, the numbers always match what's on the till.

Grounded in the app: Telegram alerts including low-stock, out-of-stock, expiry and security notifications, a daily summary, and bot-token/chat-ID configuration with a test-alert action are implemented in the Telegram settings module.

Why owners keep it on

Catch empty shelves first

Know about a stockout before your customers point it out.

Stop expiry losses

Expiry alerts give you the runway to sell down or return.

Watch the counter remotely

Security alerts flag unusual activity when you're away.

Start every day informed

The daily summary lands whether or not you visited the shop.

Telegram FAQ

What do I need to connect Telegram?

A Telegram bot token and the chat ID you want alerts sent to. Enter them in settings, pick your alerts, and send a test message to confirm.

Which alerts can I get?

Daily sales summaries plus low-stock, out-of-stock, expiry and security alerts. You choose which ones are active.

Do the alerts work if the shop is offline?

Alerts are sent when a connection is available; the underlying events are captured on-device regardless, so nothing is missed once you're back online.
