Waybud turns your point-of-sale data into the answers a multi-store owner actually needs - real margins, the cash frozen on your shelves, who's selling, and what needs you today - across every location, in one place.

The CEO view: fleet revenue and margin, shrinkage, aging stock - and an auto-generated list of exactly what needs you today. Every store, one screen.
Running two to five vape shops means the important things happen where you're not standing. By the time a problem shows up in a monthly report, it has already cost you.
Dead and aging stock you're still storing, insuring, and not selling - with no easy way to spot it.
A few points off on the wrong products, in the wrong store, and you don't see it until the quarter's already gone.
Hours of manual math every pay run, and an argument every time a number looks off.
You feel who your strong staff are - but you can't prove it, rank it, or reward it fairly.
If you're not in the store, you don't know what happened until someone tells you - if they tell you.
The POS says one thing, the spreadsheet another, and refunds quietly inflate the picture.
Revenue with refunds netted in and margin tracked to the SKU. The number on the screen is the number that's real - one source of truth from your POS.
Every SKU that stopped selling, valued in dollars, per store. Stop reordering the losers and free the cash that's sitting on your shelves.
Margin by store, product and category, tracked every day - so you catch the slow erosion before it quietly costs you a whole quarter.
Commissions calculated to the transaction, with a full audit trail and run-over-run checks. Retire the spreadsheet - and the arguments that come with it.
See who actually sells. Rank performance by person and by store, and put your rewards where the results are.
A daily digest and CEO brief in your inbox, a live fleet view, and tasks you can assign and track. Run every store without being in every store.
These are real figures from the 7-store chain that runs on Waybud today, over the last twelve months. Your mileage depends on your business - but this is the shape of the return.
976 SKUs sitting unsold for 90+ days, surfaced in dollars and ready to act on.
One point of gross margin on $9.3M in sales. The system shows you exactly where to find it.
Manual reporting and commission math - replaced by numbers that are ready when you wake up.
The gap between the top and bottom performer - now something you can see and manage.
Figures drawn from live operating data, trailing twelve months. Time-savings reported by ownership. Individual results vary by store count, product mix and pricing.
Vaping The Way runs seven locations in Regina, Saskatchewan. They built Waybud because their POS reports couldn't answer the questions that actually run the business. Here's what changed.
Annual sales by location (anonymized). The biggest store does more than 3× the smallest - the kind of gap that's invisible until you put every store on one screen.
In its first pass, Waybud surfaced $44,500 of cash frozen in dead stock - nearly five times a full year's subscription - before counting a single hour saved or a single point of margin protected.
Annual cost shown at $750/mo × 12. Dead stock is frozen working capital to be recovered through action, not a direct cash saving. Figures from live operating data, trailing twelve months.
"We stopped guessing. The questions I used to ask my managers, the system now answers before I ask them."
We plug into your point-of-sale - Lightspeed, Shopify POS, Square, and any POS with API capabilities. No rip-and-replace, no new hardware, no disruption to your staff.
Every sale, cost, count and adjustment across every store - cleaned, matched, and rolled up to one source of truth while you sleep.
Live dashboards, a morning digest, and answers you can act on - on your phone or your desktop, the next day.
Waybud exists because our own POS reports weren't enough. Seven stores depend on it every single day - so it's built for the real job, not a demo.
Disposables, coils, fast-churning flavor SKUs, cross-store staff, tight margins. It's built for how vape actually sells - not a generic retail template.
Generic dashboards hand you graphs and leave. We hand you the decision: what to stop buying, where margin's leaking, and who to pay.
One flat subscription: $750 a month. If it surfaces tens of thousands in dead stock and protects your margin, it pays for itself many times over.
Introductory pricing. Month-to-month, no hardware to buy.
One flat subscription: $750 per month, every store included.
No long-term contract. Month-to-month, cancel any time. No hardware purchase.
Days, not months. We connect to your POS and reconcile your data - no new hardware, no staff retraining.
Lightspeed, Shopify POS, Square, and any POS with API capabilities. Tell us what you run and we'll confirm.
