Running a shop in Algiers, Oran, Constantine, Annaba or any town in Algeria means juggling stock, cash, customer credit and suppliers, often with a notebook and a calculator. Circle is a free inventory and point-of-sale (POS) app that puts all of it on your phone, in Arabic or English.
Made for shops and small businesses in Algeria
Circle is made for the shops that serve every Algerian neighbourhood: groceries and general-food stores, mobile phone and accessories shops, parapharmacies and cosmetics stores, clothing and shoe shops, car spare parts dealers, hardware and building materials stores and small wholesalers. From the first sale of the day to closing time, Circle keeps every product, every sale and every dinar in one place.
What you can do with Circle
- Know your stock at a glance – every sale and purchase updates quantities automatically.
- Sell in seconds – scan a barcode with your phone camera and record cash, card or transfer payments.
- Never run out by surprise – your dashboard shows what is running low so you reorder in time.
- Replace the credit notebook – every customer balance is tracked, with credit limits and 30, 60 and 90-day aging.
- Track suppliers – log purchases, partial payments and what you still owe each supplier.
- See your real profit – daily, weekly and monthly reports of sales, costs and profit.
- Export to CSV – send your sales and products to your accountant as files that open in Excel.
Algerian dinar support arrives in the next update
The next Circle update adds the Algerian dinar (DZD), so every price, balance and report will be shown in dinars. Algerian dinar support is not in the current app yet. Download Circle now to try the demo shop with no sign-up, and update when the new version reaches the store. Share receipts on WhatsApp or print them, and open your recent sales, paid or unpaid, in one tap.
Records for TVA and your accountant
Circle now handles VAT on your receipts: set your VAT rate, choose inclusive or exclusive prices, print your tax number and the VAT lines on every receipt, and see VAT collected and sales excluding VAT in your reports.
The standard TVA (VAT) rate in Algeria is 19%. Many businesses are registered for TVA and need complete sales and purchase records. Circle keeps a record of every transaction and lets you export your sales and products as CSV files for your accountant. You choose the rate in Circle yourself, so check which rate applies to your goods with your accountant or the tax administration. Circle is an inventory and POS app, not a certified invoicing system.
Arabic first, English when you want it
Circle is built natively in Arabic, right-to-left, with an English interface one tap away. Switch the whole app between Arabic and English any time. The app is available in Arabic and English; there is no French interface yet.
Keep selling when the internet drops
If the connection drops, keep selling: sales are saved on your phone and sync automatically when you are back online. Customers can pay cash, card, bank transfer, a mobile wallet, or on credit.
Returns, expenses and your true net profit
Process a return in two taps: refund the customer or reduce their balance, and the stock goes back automatically with a credit note. Log rent, salaries and bills as expenses, and Circle shows your real net profit. Set a credit limit for each customer and Circle stops a sale that goes over it. Reprint any receipt or send it as an image with your shop logo on WhatsApp.
Free, on Android and iPhone
Free. No subscription. No credit card. Circle is free to download and use, with no features locked behind a premium plan. It runs on Android and iOS phones and tablets, and your data is stored safely in the cloud, so if your phone is lost your shop records are not.
