Is your newsagency software helping you evolve your customer mix and grow your profit?
The modern newsagency is a business in transition. To be successful, today and into the future you need more than just a system for magazines and lottery sales; you need a platform that supports business transformation.
Tower Systems provides the industry-standard POS software for newsagents in Australia and New Zealand.
We are the only software company in this space that has owned and operated its own newsagencies. Since buying our first shop in 1996, we used our own retail experience to build tools that help newsagents run more valuable and enjoyable businesses. That experience carries forward today.
Industry-specific integrations for efficiency
Our software is designed to handle the high-volume, specific requirements of a newsagency. We provide a direct link to The Lott via XchangeIT, allowing you to capture sales data accurately and without manual entry. For your magazine category, the software integrates with XchangeIT to manage arrivals and returns automatically. This ensures your stock levels are accurate and your credits are managed correctly.
Financial management is also streamlined through electronic invoice imports. We support all major greeting card companies and suppliers, allowing you to bring in stock files in seconds. This eliminates the need for manual data entry and reduces errors, giving you more time to focus on your customers.
Advanced AI features for a modern newsagency
Tower Systems is leading the way with AI-enabled POS technology. Our software integrates with ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Anthropic to help you work smarter. You can use these embedded AI tools to generate professional product descriptions for new gift lines or collectibles.
The AI also allows you to tap into deep business performance insights. You can compare prices and analyse complex business reports in seconds. This technology helps you identify which categories are growing and which ones need attention, allowing you to make better decisions based on real-time data rather than guesswork.
Connected retail and online expansion
To grow your business today, you need to sell beyond your local area. Our software seamlessly connects to online platforms like Shopify, Magento, and WooCommerce. This allows you to sell gifts, stationery, and specialty items 24/7. Your in-store and online inventory stay perfectly synchronised, ensuring you never oversell a product.
Back-office management is equally efficient. We offer a direct link to Xero for accounting, saving you hours on bookkeeping. For your shop floor, we provide integrated EFTPOS with all major banks. This cuts down on transaction mistakes and speeds up the checkout process. If you choose to pass on EFTPOS fees, the system can automatically calculate a surcharge for you.
Note: We do not charge a fee per transaction.
Supporting every part of your business
Whether you run a traditional newsagency or a high-end gift and stationery boutique, our software adapts to your needs. For those who still manage home delivery, we provide comprehensive tools to track routes and billing. We also offer specialty features like colour, size, and style tracking for clothing or apparel lines.
Our loyalty programs are built to help you shift your customer mix. You can use the "bring them back" features to market to shoppers based on what they have bought in the past. This is a powerful way to encourage a lottery shopper to browse your gift department or a magazine reader to explore your stationery range.
Tower Systems is committed to the newsagency industry. We understand the importance of good customer service because we are newsagents ourselves. Our software continues to evolve based on the needs of our own shops and the thousands of independent retailers we are grateful to serve.
