1. Executive Summary

ClearSlip is a hardware-software ecosystem designed to eliminate Sri Lanka’s reliance on paper receipts and fragmented POS systems. At its core is the Universal POS Adapter, a palm-sized, plug-and-play device that digitizes sales, warranties, and inventory data in real time. Paired with an AI-driven mobile app for consumers and a predictive analytics dashboard for merchants, ClearSlip addresses Sri Lanka’s urgent need for financial digitization, sustainability, and SME growth. Backed by Sri Lanka’s 2050 Carbon-Neutral Roadmap (Ministry of Environment, 2023), the platform reduces operational costs by 35% for merchants while empowering consumers to achieve financial literacy.
