The Tower pricing is transparent. At our YouTube channel you can access demonstrations of the software.
Are you giving your POS software company a percentage of each sale in your shop?
A
A growing trend among some Point of Sale (POS) software companies is to charge retailers not only for access to their software but also a percentage of each sale. They often justify this practice as a fee for their payment processing services. However, many retailers suspect these companies are profiting from the difference between the rates they pay their payment providers and the rates they charge to merchants.
This business model allows POS software companies to generate significant revenue, essentially taking a cut of every sale a retailer makes. While some retailers may be content with this arrangement, others are concerned about the impact on their bottom line.
Do you want your POS software company to take a slice of profit from every sale you make?
For businesses focused on maximising profits, it’s crucial to carefully evaluate POS software options. Not all POS providers impose these additional fees. Many offer straightforward pricing models, such as monthly or annual subscriptions, without taking a percentage of sales. By choosing a POS system that doesn’t profit from your transactions, retailers can retain more of their hard-earned revenue.
At Tower Systems, we believe in transparency and fairness. We do not charge our customers per transaction or take a share of their profits. Our pricing model is simple: a modest monthly rental fee. This straightforward approach allows retailers to focus on running their businesses without worrying about hidden costs.
By avoiding these additional fees, retailers can improve their profit margins and reinvest in their businesses. Whether it’s hiring new staff, expanding inventory, or upgrading equipment, every dollar saved on POS fees can make a significant difference.
As a retailer, it’s important to be aware of these hidden costs and to choose a POS software provider that aligns with your business goals. By selecting a transparent and affordable solution, you can optimize your operations and maximize your profits.
Here at Tower Systems we do not charge our customers per transaction, were do not take a share of your profit. The only cost for using our POS software is the modest monthly POS software rental fee, our pricing is transparent. Again, there is no per transaction cost, no slicing into your profits.
POS software for sewing, haberdashery and fabric shops helps them grow
P
Local sewing shops, haberdashery businesses and fabric shops are beloved by their customers for their products, their knowledge and their love of making. Our software for sewing, haberdashery and fabric shops has facilities that help these businesses thrive – through efficiency, smart insights and support for better business decision making.
Sewing shops, haberdashery businesses and fabric shops have business software needs that go way beyond what you will see in traditional POS software.
From selling by fractions, to supporting club member pricing to leveraging loyalty for infrequent visits to tracking products by colour to selling bundled products as a kit sewing shops, haberdashery businesses and fabric shops benefit from software than can be tuned to their needs.
In this video, Justin from our team shows some of the facilities that these specialty retailers love, facilities unique to their needs. Our POS software for sewing shops, haberdashery businesses and fabric shops does more than these few things though.
Fabric and Sewing shops can be part retail, part repair / maintenance / part advisory / part teaching. It is in these niche areas that our software serves, helping specialty retailers like fabric and sewing shops to track what they sell and nurture a better customer experience.
Since we make our own POS software, we are able to evolve the software to serve evolving needs, and we are able to fine-time our support of the software to ensure that it serves the needs of sewing shops and related businesses that decide the software is a good fit for their needs.
We are grateful to the sewing, haberdashery and fabric shops who are already customers. Their insights have been most helpful
Take the selling of items by decimals or fractions. This is how fabric is sold. We make it easy and accurate. We even handle pricing that can vary based on the length of a fabric purchased. In other words, play less per metre the more you buy. This is handled by the software based on the settings created by those running the sewing shop.
We appreciate every sewing / fabric shop is different. Tell us about your needs and we can see if our software could help.
Does your POS software company charge you a fee per transaction in your shop?
D
If your POS software company takes a cut of your sales, read this.
If your POS software company charges a fee for every sale you make, you might want to reconsider. Here at Tower Systems, we don’t charge per-transaction fees. Our pricing is transparent, and your software cost won’t increase as your sales grow.
Not all POS software companies operate this way. Some POS software companies require you to use their payment platform, which means you pay them a percentage of every transaction. This can be a significant cost, especially for growing businesses. As your sales increase, what they make from your business increases.
Payments are a hot topic for retailers, particularly small businesses. There’s a big difference between payment platforms in terms of cost and benefits.
While there’s been a lot of hype about unified payments, the truth is, integrated payments have been around for many years. They’ve always been about streamlining the checkout process, reducing errors, and improving security.
The latest hype around unified payments or integrated payments is cover, we think, for a move by some POS software companies who want a slice of every sale you make.
Tower Systems offers integrated payments with all major banks and many other providers. We give you the freedom to choose the payment platform that best suits your business, potentially saving you up to a third on transaction fees. Some of our retailers pay as little as 0.7% per transaction.
We believe in putting our customers first. We don’t lock you into our payment platform. Instead, we focus on providing great POS software. We think it’s unfair for software companies to profit from every sale you make. It’s like a hidden tax on your hard work.
Tower Systems offers:
- Integrated EFTPOS payments
- Support for all major banks and financial institutions
- Integrated buy now, pay later payments
- Time savings
- Fewer errors at the checkout
- Easy record-keeping
- Streamlined workflow
We’ve been pioneers in integrated payments since the beginning in Australia. We offer choice and focus on providing software that retailers love.
Tower Systems is proud to serve over 3,500 small businesses across Australia, New Zealand, the Cook Islands, Fiji, and Papua New Guinea.

POS software for Industrial Supplies – Showroom/Warehouse businesses
P
Not all retail requirements are the same. Different types of retailers have different types of needs. In this industrial supplies showroom / warehouse situation, needs are different. We are grateful to serve a range of businesses in this space as well as in allied spaces. Features in our POS software these businesses rely on include:
- Quote and Invoice Management
- Account Management (pricing profiles etc)
- Simple POS
- Stock Ordering (and Customer Order Management)
- Repairs and Jobs
- Pack and Kit Management
- Sell by Fractions
- Serial Number Tracking
- Accounting Integration
- Website Integration: Shopify, Big Commerce, Woo Commerce and Magento.
- Xero integration.
- Customer delivery support and integration.
We got into this POS allied area when approached by businesses that started out preparing invoices in Xero. They were looking to implement product ordering, better invoicing, pick slips and customer management. However, they were not looking to go to the level of using a full ERP system with full job tracking and process management. Such systems come at a considerable dollar and labour cost. They wanted a solution that served their needs and was within their budget.
We found from working with some of these businesses that our POS software did serve their needs. That’s how we got into the Industrial Supplies – Showroom/Warehouse POS software space.
We recently released enhanced facilities in the Quote and Invoice Management area of the software.
- New Facility: We are excited to introduce a new capability within our Quote & Invoice Management system that allows users to reserve items from their inventory even if they have not been formally sold. This ensures that stock levels are accurately reflected, preventing overselling.
- Proforma Invoice Status: A new interim status, “Proforma Invoice,” has been added to our Quotes & Invoice management. This status acts as an accepted quote that has not yet been processed as an invoice but has already reduced the available stock quantity by moving it to a new “Reserved Quantity.” This significant update allows you to issue proforma invoices to customers without making the reserved stock visible on your website or in-store.
- We have enhanced the Quote & Invoice Management system to support the acceptance of deposits and progression payments for Proforma Invoices. This feature facilitates flexible payment options for your customers and streamlined financial management for your business.
These are some of the recent changes delivered in our POS software that serve this Industrial Supplies – Showroom/Warehouse space.
