Built for the folding table

Everything a pop-up needs. Nothing it doesn't.

No card reader to rent, no monthly plan, no account to create. VendorBud lives on the device you already carry and keeps your day organized from open to close.

Tap to ring up

Set your items and prices once. Selling is just tapping plus and minus — the total is always right in front of you.

Cash and card, tracked apart

Take cash or card on the same ticket. VendorBud keeps separate running totals so your drawer always reconciles.

Change figured for you

Type the cash handed over and the change due appears in big, clear numbers. No mental math at the table.

Inventory that counts down

Enter starting counts and watch each item tick down as it sells — so you know what's left at a glance.

Tips, donations & tax

Add a tip or donation on its own line, and switch on sales tax at your rate when you need to collect it.

End-of-day report

Close out with a clean summary of what sold, cash vs. card, and inventory left — print it or save a PDF for your records.

Printable receipts

Hand a customer a tidy receipt when they want one — itemized, totaled, and stamped with your business name.

Works with no signal

Activate online once, then it runs entirely on your device. No bars at the fairgrounds? Doesn't matter — VendorBud keeps working.

Add it to your home screen

Save it like an app. One tap to open, big friendly buttons, and a manager password to lock down setup and resets.

A look inside

Made to be readable across a crowded table.

Big numbers, high contrast, and a warm, uncluttered layout — so whoever's working the booth can see it at a glance.

Quick start guide

From box of cookies to open for business.

Four steps take you through a whole event. One person can set it up; anyone can run the booth.

Activate & set up

The first time, activate VendorBud online and accept the User Agreement — a one-time step while you're connected. Then open Manager tools, add your items, prices, and starting inventory, set your cash drawer, and lock it in for the show. Set a manager password so only you can reach setup and resets.

Manager

Sell to your customers

Tap plus on each item being bought. For cash, type the amount received and tap Cash sale — the change is figured for you. For card, tap Card sale. Add a tip or donation on its own line, then confirm.

Operator

Handle split payments

If the cash is less than the total, tapping Cash sale records a partial payment. Finish the balance with more cash or a card — VendorBud keeps track until the ticket is settled.

Operator

Close out the day

Print the end-of-day report for your records, then Reset for New Show to clear the day and inventory and start fresh. Add the app to your home screen and don't clear its data mid-event.

Manager

Want the whole thing on paper? The full illustrated manual comes with your purchase. You can also open Help & Quick Start any time from inside the app.
