Mayam vs i-Gold System

A dashboard on your phone is good. A counter that never slows down is better.

i-Gold is built for owner monitoring — live sales, scrap prices, stock balance from your phone. Mayam POS starts at the counter: locked gold rate, weight-based pricing with tiered workmanship, guided trade-ins, e-invoice, offline mode — and you get the live dashboard too.

Mayam POS is a cloud-based point-of-sale and management platform for gold and jewellery shops in Malaysia. It runs the counter — locked daily gold rate, weight-based pricing with tiered workmanship, guided trade-ins, LHDN e-invoices, offline mode — and gives owners a live dashboard of sales, stock and profit per branch on any phone.

What i-Gold does well — and where it stops

i-Gold’s own pitch is owner convenience: update the scrap buying price from your phone, watch transactions live, check daily, weekly and monthly sales and stock balance from anywhere. That is genuinely useful. But a gold shop is won or lost at the counter. On a busy Saturday, these are the questions that matter:

  1. 01

    Can staff lock today’s rate once, without keying it in again on every sale?

  2. 02

    Does the system work out rate × weight + the right workmanship for a Gold-tier member, without staff doing it in their heads?

  3. 03

    Trade-ins — does it check the item was bought at this shop, link it to the new sale and record the resale?

  4. 04

    Does the e-invoice go out with the sale, or does someone send them at night?

  5. 05

    Does the counter keep working when the internet drops?

Mayam answers all five. Then it gives you the phone dashboard as well.

What you get beyond the dashboard

01

Designed from the counter outwards

Rate lock, weight, workmanship tier, payment, invoice — one flow, no side menus. Built alongside real counter staff and measured in clicks.

02

Trade-ins that don’t leak margin

Mayam checks the item was originally sold by your shop, requires the new purchase to exceed the trade-in value, and records whether the item was resold as old gold or sent out as scrap — so your buyback book and your physical gold always tally.

03

Everything i-Gold shows, plus the operations behind it

Live sales and stock on your phone, yes — but backed by a full POS, member tiers, multi-branch stock, e-invoice and accounting sync, with an API your website and WhatsApp CRM can use.
