Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.2
GPA, above 43 of the 127 other accounting and invoicing tools we grade
Vencru combines stock tracking, invoicing, a point-of-sale app, purchasing and double-entry accounting for retailers and wholesalers. Plans are sized by how many invoices and POS receipts a business issues each month, and by users and products. It is sold with a trial and a free plan.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Vencru, taken from its own pages and our grades.
No store rating on record, and you import products, set up stock and connect your shop first.
- 1
Best for small shops that want stock, invoices and a till together
Vencru combines inventory, invoicing, a point-of-sale app, purchasing and double-entry accounting for retailers and wholesalers.
- 2
Paid plans start at $5 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $5 per month, billed quarterly or yearly ($6 billed monthly).
- 3
There is a free plan
A free plan exists for limited needs; its limits are not listed on the pricing page.
- 4
It runs on 4 platforms
Web, iOS, Android and macOS.
- 5
Inventory tracking
Track stock by product, with low-stock alerts, barcode scanning, stock counts and, on Enterprise, warehouse inventory management.
- 6
Invoices and POS receipts
Create invoices, recurring invoices, receipts and sales orders, and sell in person with the point-of-sale app. Invoices and receipts share one monthly cap.
- 7
Purchasing
Create purchase orders, record vendor bills and receive stock into inventory. Purchase orders and vendor bills start on Growth.
- 8
A 2.2 GPA, above 43 of 127
That is against the other accounting and invoicing tools we grade, on value, the free plan, features, ease of use and platforms.
- 9
Keep it
To replace Vencru you would be making live feeds from your bank, which take an agreement with each bank or a service that has them. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.

The report card
Best for small shops that want stock, invoices and a till together
Vencru combines inventory, invoicing, a point-of-sale app, purchasing and double-entry accounting for retailers and wholesalers. But invoices and POS receipts share one monthly cap, 50 on Starter, and quotes, purchase orders and double-entry reports need the $25 Growth plan.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | C | Starter is $5 a month on yearly billing, but the double-entry reports, purchase orders and quotes are on Growth at $25, a little above the category's middle. |
| Free plan and trial | C | A free plan exists but its limits aren't listed, plus a 14-day trial with no card. We can't say how far the free plan goes. |
| Features | C | Inventory, invoices and POS receipts, purchasing and double-entry accounting. The quotes, vendor bills and accounting reports are gated to Growth and above. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record, and you import products, set up stock and connect your shop first. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, iOS, Android and Mac, with Shopify, spreadsheet and QuickBooks import. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Vencru is for
- Fits if you run a small shop and want stock, invoices and a till in one account
- Works for wholesalers who need purchase orders on Growth
Who it is not for
- Tight if you issue more than 50 invoices and receipts a month on Starter, because they share one cap
- Skip it if you need quotes, purchase orders or vendor bills on the cheapest plan, since they start on Growth
- Watch out: warehouse inventory and multi-currency are Enterprise only
- Watch out: the pricing page doesn't list what the free plan allows
Good to know
Good for
- Retailers and wholesalers who want stock and books in one app
- Small shops that sell in person and need a POS app
- Businesses moving off a spreadsheet or QuickBooks inventory
Worth knowing

- Quotes, purchase orders, vendor bills and double-entry reports need Growth or higher.
- Warehouse inventory and multi-currency need Enterprise, which has 5 users.
- The pricing page does not list the free plan's limits.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Vencru you would be making live feeds from your bank, which take an agreement with each bank or a service that has them. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $60 a year.
What you could make
- Invoicing, inventory, reports and quotes and estimates: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Live feeds from your bank, which take an agreement with each bank or a service that has them.
- Scanning barcodes with a phone camera or a scanner.
- Apps for macOS, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
What this rests on. Vencru’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
