Lotterywest integration from Tower Systems newsagency software helps WA newsagents save time, cut mistakes

L

Newsagents in Western Australia are loving the integration Tower Systems released two months ago between its newsagency software and Lotterywest.

With this integration, Lotterywest retailers using the Tower Systems software can scan a Lotterywest ticket they have printed for a customer and the sale automatically comes up on their Tower POS software. This saves time and cuts mistakes.

It’s another terrific step toward improved efficiency for Lotterywest retailers using the newsagency industry standard software from Tower Systems. This integration has been delivered by Tower Systems to its newsagency software customers without additional cost. We have also delivered an integration with The Lottery Corporation (TheLott) terminals for newsagents outside of Western Australia.

Here is the announcement sent by Lotterywest to retailers two months ago:

From Wednesday 22 October, a new internationally recognised EAN13 Price Embedded Barcode will replace the existing price barcodes on Lotto tickets and receipts. Retailers using TOWER and POS Browser systems will now be able to scan Lotto tickets directly into their POS terminal.

What are the benefits?

More than just easier scanning, the new barcode also allows you to scan payouts, cancellations, and other receipts. Scan individual tickets to view game-level sales or use the summary ticket for a quick snapshot of store performance. There is no change to activating Scratch’n’Win tickets, however Scratch’n’Win payouts can now be scanned. In addition, enhanced transaction history is now available on the Photon screen, giving you greater sales visibility and making reconciliation more efficient.

The move is already streamlining lottery ticket selling for WA retailers, and we are grateful to have helped with this.

Tower Systems is grateful to offer WA newsagents access to the Lotterywest integration. If you’re in WA and are a Tower Systems customer, click here for the advice on being ready for the launch by Lotterywest on October 22. Lotterywest sent an email to WA newsagents today. This brings WA newsagents closer to what other stated and territories have had for a while now. Tower has funded this work on behalf of newsagents.

Also in the Tower newsagency software are awesome integrated AI tools that are helping newsagents make big changes including cutting labour costs and making better quality decisions faster. These are the most advanced AI tools in newsagency software right now.

With the successful rollout of the Lotterywest integration, funded by Tower Systems on behalf of its customers, and the concurrent delivery of the TheLott integration for retailers outside WA, Tower Systems continues to cement its commitment to driving newsagency efficiency nationwide. This focus on streamlining core retail operations is further complemented by the inclusion of market-leading, integrated AI tools within the Tower newsagency software, positioning it as the most advanced POS solution for local small business retailers seeking to reduce labor costs and make faster, better-quality business decisions.
