You can have lots of sites or one. You can have lots of seats or one. After all, it’s your store. Your point of sale system should help you do what you want to do.
It's Nice to Be Local
Just because everyone is doing it, it doesn’t mean it’s right for you.
Sometimes you like to have your things with you. On site and not on the cloud. There’s nothing wrong with that.
PayGo can easily and affordably be run locally on a Mac or Windows computer. In fact, you can mix platforms! Wether you have one workstation or 200, we can help you.
What's it like running local?
Setup is Easy (We help you with this!)
- Pick a computer to be your host
- Configure your host to use the same IP address each and every time it powers up.
- Set up your guest computers to connect to the PayGo host
The Benefits?
- All data in PayGo is available from each computer instantly.
- Setup computers based on the job junction they serve. For instance, a Register computer will function differently than a back-office computer will
- Everything is super fast because everything is on the same LAN
- Your data is with you, not on someone else's server
What's Under the Hood?

PayGo is powered by the FileMaker Pro platform. It’s a platform that’s been evolving since the late 80s! So it’s proven. But it’s not old. Building on the platform allows the PayGo team to concentrate on your business and how it works. Software requires a ton of geek power and we leave the base layer of development in the hands of Filemaker Inc.

For some PayGo clients, you’ll need the power of FileMaker Server. FileMaker Server is fast, reliable server software used to securely share data with groups of FileMaker Pro Advanced, FileMaker Go, and FileMaker WebDirect users. Get 24/7 availability and reliability, remotely manage apps with ease, and save time by automating administrative tasks.
