Retailer Roam: POS software helping you sell from anywhere, including Pop-ups

R

Modern retail is not within four walls and a fixed counter. Sales can be conducted anywhere from the shop floor to a pop-up to off the back of a truck to a local market.

Retailers know the smart move is to sell where the customers are.

Our Retailer Roam POS software solution is a calm, capable, and cloud-based tool in our Tower Systems software suite, designed to give you the freedom to sell anywhere, anytime.

Portability, uninterrupted sales

As a tablet-based app for Apple iPads and Android devices, Retailer Roam acts as a powerful extension of the core Tower Systems Retailer POS software. It’s designed for small retail businesses on the move, allowing you to transact with confidence whether you’re connected to WiFi or working completely offline.

This is a key strength. We understand that internet access isn’t always guaranteed at an event or in a temporary location. Retailer Roam is built to work seamlessly even when a connection is not available. Sales and customer data are securely stored on the device in a queue and then automatically synchronised back to your main system as soon as you’re back online. This offers peace of mind, ensuring you never miss a sale due to a sketchy connection.

Retailer Roam has been built with retailers, for retailers. years in the field show the value. Customers love it.

Powerful retail features – in your hands.

Retailer Roam provides a comprehensive suite of tools, giving you the power of a full POS terminal in a portable format. You can:

  • Transact with ease: Process Cash and EFTPOS sales, create invoices, set up a LayBy, and handle refunds. Integrated EFTPOS ensures smooth, professional payments.
  • Manage stock: Sell items with serial numbers, conduct stocktakes, and manage re-ordering on the go.
  • Engage customers: Accrue and redeem loyalty points, strengthening your customer relationships wherever you are.
  • Customise workflow: Adapt the POS screen to suit your specific needs for faster, more intuitive service.

How Retailer Roam works.

Behind the scenes, a secure and reliable three-phase process keeps your data accurate and synchronised with your main business database.

  1. Initial Setup: On start-up, the app performs an initial transfer of your base stock information, setting you up to begin selling immediately.
  2. Live Updates: The app then receives ongoing product updates, such as changes to pricing or stock on hand levels, ensuring your data is always current.
  3. Sales Sync: Finally, all sales, customer, and inventory data from the Roam terminal is sent back to your main Retailer software, giving you a complete picture of your business performance across all locations.

Retailer Roam is a proven solution for any retail business that needs to be agile. It’s easy to use, secure, and built to serve the real-world needs of Australian small businesses.

The most recent release of Retailer Roam was released last month, August 2025. We continue to evolve Roam to ensure it is a viable and loved software solution for local small business retailers.
