In the world of retail software, the long-term contract is standard practice. Twelve, twenty-four, even thirty-six-month agreements are common, locking small business retailers into a platform regardless of whether it continues to meet their evolving needs. At Tower Systems, we have a different approach. Our commitment to you isn’t written in a lengthy, binding contract; it’s proven every day in the value our software delivers.
That’s why we make it easy for our customers to leave.
With just 30 days’ notice, any retailer using our POS software for small business retail can terminate their rental agreement. There are no financial penalties, no hidden clauses, and no difficult conversations. This isn’t just a policy; it’s the bedrock of our entire business philosophy.
Putting Our Skin in the Game
This 30-day notice period is our differentiator, but more importantly, it’s our daily motivation. By giving our customers the freedom to leave, we place the onus squarely on ourselves to give them compelling reasons to stay. It keeps us accountable and relentlessly focused on what truly matters: delivering tangible value to the small, independent retailers we serve.
We back ourselves and our software. We are confident that our product, our support, and our continuous innovation will earn your business month after month. If we fail to do that, you should have the freedom to choose a solution that does.
How This “Easy to Quit” Policy Drives Us
This commitment shapes every facet of our operation:
- It Drives Continuous Innovation: We can’t afford to become complacent. Knowing that our customers can leave at any time pushes our development team to constantly enhance our software, release meaningful updates, and respond to the real-world needs of modern retailers.
- It Demands Excellent Support: When a retailer calls for support, they aren’t just a contract number; they are a partner whose trust we must re-earn with every interaction. Our support team understands that responsive, effective, and knowledgeable service is critical to customer retention.
- It Fosters a True Partnership: The traditional software contract creates a power imbalance. Our model fosters a partnership. We are in it together. Your success is the only metric that guarantees our success, creating a relationship built on mutual trust and respect, not contractual obligation.
The Power of Freedom for the Retailer
For a small retail business owner, agility is everything. The retail landscape can change in a season, and your business needs to pivot quickly. Being locked into a multi-year software contract that no longer fits your workflow stifles that agility.
Our 30-day policy provides you with:
- Reduced Risk: You can adopt our powerful, specialised POS software for your local specialty retail business with the confidence that you are not making an irreversible, long-term financial commitment.
- Ultimate Flexibility: As your business grows, diversifies, or changes, you have the assurance that your core operational software can change with you.
- An Empowered Choice: You stay with Tower Systems because you want to, not because you have to. You are in control.
We believe the best way to keep a customer is to deliver so much value they wouldn’t dream of leaving. That’s our promise. The 30-day notice isn’t an exit clause; it’s our commitment to upholding that promise every single day.
