Antique shop POS software
Built for one-of-a-kind stock and multiple vendors. Xero and Shopify integrated.
This isn't the smoothest way to open a pitch, but it's true: this software won't suit every antique business. In fact, it won’t suit most. Antique shops vary more from one to the next than almost any other retail category we work with, so we'd rather say that upfront than have you find out after signing up.
The parts generic retail software struggles with are exactly what ours handles: second-hand purchases, consignment stock from multiple vendors, provenance, and restoration work sitting alongside everyday sales.
Whether we are right for you all comes down to the flexibility in your approach to managing your business.
We don't sell to big business or franchises. We thrive serving local indie retailers.

Selling stock that isn't like anything else on the shelf
Every item on an antique shop floor can be one of one. Serial numbers and unique identifiers let you track individual pieces rather than lump them into a generic stock code, so a single writing desk or a signed print stays traceable from purchase to sale.
Consignment adds another layer. If you buy in from multiple sellers or give space to other dealers, the software tracks sales back to each vendor, works out payouts, and lets you report by seller or roll everything up by product type when you need the bigger picture.
Provenance, valuations and restorations, attached to the item
An antique's value often rests on its history as much as its condition. You can attach provenance notes, photos and care instructions directly to a stock item, so the story travels with the piece instead of living in a separate file or someone's memory. Track valuations and restoration work against the item too, which matters when a customer, or an insurer, asks for the paper trail.
AI tools that save you the boring work
Tower Systems builds AI straight into the POS software, with integrations for ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Anthropic. Use it to pull supplier invoices in automatically instead of typing them out by hand, and to draft product descriptions for your online store in language suited to a general audience, no rewriting required on your end. Pull up business insights, compare pricing, read a performance report, all in seconds rather than an afternoon.

Fair pricing, and you keep the choice
We believe in a clean, transparent business model. You can rent our antique shop software for a modest cost. Unlike many competitors, we don't act as a tax collector. We don't take a clip from your sales transactions, and we don't penalise you for choosing a specific payment provider.
Many software companies have shifted their focus to earning revenue from every transaction you complete. We think that's an avoidable tax on your hard work. At Tower Systems you choose the EFTPOS solution that suits your business. We build better software instead of profiting from your banking choices.
Bringing customers back for the next piece
Special orders let you note what a customer is after and reach out by text or email the moment something matching turns up. Buy now, pay later gives customers a cleaner alternative to laybys on higher-priced pieces, and gift vouchers give them an easy way to bring someone else into the shop. Loyalty and marketing tools let you reach regulars based on what they've actually bought before, useful in a category where the next sale might be months away.
Selling online without losing the story
Our software connects to Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento and WooCommerce, so a listing built in-store, complete with photos and provenance notes, carries straight through to your online shop instead of being rebuilt from scratch. Xero handles the accounting side without double entry.
Tower Systems keeps building this software around the antique retailers actually using it. If something's missing for your business, tell us. That's usually where the next update comes from.
