Overview
Run Your Specialty Retail Shop Smarter. Make Bookkeeping Seamless.
Stop fighting software that wasn’t built for you. A generic, one-size-fits-all POS can't handle the complexities of your specialty retail business.
Tower Systems is different. We are a Point of Sale system built by retailers, for retailers. We are the ideal, all-in-one solution for inventory-based businesses that have outgrown simple systems.
If you run a: Newsagency, Jeweller, Bike Shop, Toy Shop or Hobby Store, Pet Shop, Garden Centre, Bookshop, Haberdashery & Craft Store or another specialty shop, your needs are unique. You juggle complex inventory (in thousands of SKUs, sizes, and colours), customer lay-bys, special orders, gift vouchers, bundles, kits, and even repairs. Our software makes this easy.
Accountants & Bookkeepers Love Tower Systems
We built our Xero integration with direct input from accountants. When your shop runs on Tower, you're giving accountants and bookkeepers clean, accurate, and reconciliation-ready numbers.
- One-Click Bank Reconciliation
The Problem: Generic systems send a single "Daily Sales" lump sum, which is impossible to match against separate Amex, Visa, and Cash deposits in the bank feed.
Our Solution: We post sales split by payment type to individual clearing accounts. When the Amex settlement lands, it's a perfect one-click match in Xero. No more manual journals or guesswork.
- Accurate Liability Management
The Problem: Your old POS books a $100 Gift Voucher sale as "Revenue," instantly making your P&L and Balance Sheet incorrect.
Our Solution: We know that Gift Vouchers, Lay-by Deposits, and Customer Special Orders are liabilities. Our system posts them correctly. Revenue is only recognised when the goods are collected or the voucher is redeemed.
- A P&L You Can Actually Trust
The Problem: You have no idea what your true Gross Margin is because your "COGS" is just a rough estimate.
Our Solution: We manage inventory at the item level. When an item is sold, we post the exact, real-time COGS for that specific item to Xero alongside the sale. You finally get a P&L that reflects reality.
- Flawless GST & BAS Prep
The Problem: Handling mixed GST-Free and GST-inclusive items in one sale is a nightmare, leading to a complex BAS.
Our Solution: Our system handles complex GST scenarios effortlessly, providing your advisor with a clean, accurate report for simple BAS preparation.
Choose the POS system that saves your staff time, gives you the inventory control you need, and makes your accountant's job a breeze.
