Evotor launched the App Store for Small Business

In early October 2016, the company opened the Evotor Store in beta to automate retail outlets, which was discussed at the time of the company's launch. The Evotor marketplace is a cloud platform like the Apple Store or Google Play, but with applications for doing business. They can be installed on the terminal created by the company (online cash desk, which operates in accordance with the new law on cash registers, CCT).

Creating a Company

Sberbank, Andrey Romanenko and the group of companies "" ATOL announced in June 2016 the creation of Evotor, which will present a system for managing and automating trade in the small business segment. The proposed solution was expected to create a new market niche and become an industry standard in its field, as well as complement Sberbank's digital ecosystem for corporate clients. The company intends to take a share of less than 30% in the new market in the long term, Evotor said CNews. 40% of the newly created company belongs to Sberbank, another 30% each - Andrei Romanenko as an individual and Atol, reports Interfax-AFI^[3]

The target segment of the company's business is the owners of small trading and service enterprises (shops, beauty salons, cafes, bookstores, etc.). The potential market volume at the time of creation of the company, according to Evotor estimates, is about 1.8 million points, of which more than half is grocery retail, about 18% is non-food retail, 16% is the service sector, 10% is catering.

The product that Evotor promised to offer the market is a "smart" and flexibly customizable turnkey outlet automation system of several components. The solution includes: a smart terminal and software based on Android, as well as terminals for receiving bank cards, a bar code scanner, a UTM module for EGAIS, etc. The device meets all current and discussed legislative requirements for cash registers, including automatic sending of data to EGAIS and compliance with the new procedure for using CCP within the 54-FZ, the company said. Within 3-4 years, Evotor plans to install at least 500 thousand smart terminals throughout Russia, further increasing the fleet of such devices.

The second component of the solution is cloud services, which include the entrepreneur's personal account and marketplace. SaaS is considered as the main business model of the product. The Evotor Store will offer its own and third-party applications that cover the outlet's automation needs at a cost affordable for small businesses. As conceived by the company, the applications will make it possible to manage commodity flows and balances, build and manage loyalty programs, develop an online booking and ordering system, keep records of staff hours, build relationships with tax authorities and much more.

In 2016, Evotor will present its own SDK (English software developer kit) - a partner software platform, which will open the developers of specialized services access to tens and hundreds of thousands of entrepreneurs, corporate clients of Sberbank.

Using cloud solutions and transforming into online is the future of the retail business, says Andrey Romanenko, CEO and shareholder of Evotor. - Processing big data, accounting for behavioral models and personal profiles of the buyer, managing commodity balances online from mobile devices - all this is no longer just a competitive advantage, but, rather, an urgent need. However, despite the rapid development of IT and the penetration of cloud solutions in all areas of business, small and micro business segments are experiencing a shortage and need for modern and affordable services. It is important that as part of the Evotor project, we are building an open platform, which can be joined by any bank or financial institution interested in working with small businesses.
