FREEHOLD
QuickBooks Desktop POS is gone. You're not stranded.

The point of sale you own.
Forever.

Freehold POS is desktop point-of-sale software you buy once and own outright. It runs entirely on your own computer — no monthly fee, no cloud dependency, no vendor deciding your register stops working.

Start your 14-day free demo
Card required to verify your business — you won't be charged during the demo.

How the demo works

Three steps. Ten minutes. Then you're ringing sales on your own hardware.

1 · Sign up below

Tell us about your store, agree to the license terms, and put a card on file. The card verifies your business — it is not charged during the 14-day demo.

2 · Get your key

Your demo license key appears on screen immediately and is emailed to you. Lose the email? Retrieve your key any time below.

3 · Install & ring sales

Download Freehold to the laptop at your counter, enter the key, and follow the store setup. Works with your receipt printer and barcode scanner.

Start your free demo

14 days, full product, your data. When the demo ends, buy your permanent license once — or simply walk away. We'll reach out before day 14; nothing is charged without your say-so.

Freehold POS — Software License & Demo Agreement (summary)

You're agreeing to a 14-day evaluation license for one device. Your business data belongs to you and lives on your machine, not our servers. Your card is stored for verification and is not charged during the demo; converting to a permanent license is a separate, explicit purchase. Full terms follow.
