What comes across
A migration that only brings products across leaves you rebuilding history by hand. We move the whole picture so your reports work from day one.
Full catalog with SKUs, barcodes, variants, categories, cost and selling prices, plus opening stock per location.
Contacts with balances, credit limits, customer groups and loyalty points — merged into one ledger.
Historical transactions so your reports, profit & loss and customer statements stay continuous from day one.
Opening balances, chart of accounts, outstanding invoices and unpaid supplier bills reconciled before go-live.
How it works
A 30-minute session where we look at your current system, agree what data moves, and set a go-live date.
You send exports (or give us read access) and our team maps every field to WaoBiz — categories, tax rates, units, locations.
We load your data into a live account and reconcile it line by line against your old system before you sign off.
Staff training on POS and back office, then we cut over — usually overnight, so you never close the shop.

FAQ
Nothing. Data migration is free on every paid plan — including the mapping, the import and the verification pass. You only pay your normal subscription once you go live.
Most single-location businesses are fully live within a week. Multi-location or high-volume businesses with several years of history typically take two to three weeks, and we agree the timeline on the first call.
No. We run WaoBiz in parallel with your existing system while we verify the data, then cut over outside trading hours. Your team keeps selling throughout.
We work from whatever you have — CSV exports, PDF reports, database backups, screenshots, even paper records. If nothing is exportable, our team keys in your product catalog and opening stock for you.
Yes. Historical sales and purchases come across so reports stay continuous, and you keep your original exports. Nothing is deleted from your previous provider by us — you cancel that account when you are ready.
Training is included. We run a live session for cashiers and managers covering POS, stock and reports, and you get recorded walkthroughs plus a WhatsApp support line for the first month.
