What Agility Software does

Agility Software Ltd is a privately-held UK software company that develops and sells integrated Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) systems for retail businesses, operating from a headquarters in Newcastle upon Tyne (Union Business Centre, Cobalt Business Park) and a regional office in Balbriggan, Co. Dublin, serving the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland markets. The company's core product, Agility EPOS, combines a point-of-sale interface with integrated card payments, back-office software, stock control, purchasing, reporting, and accounting modules, and scales from a single till to multi-store operations with online marketplace connectivity. Its product portfolio also includes the Agility Assistant Android mobile application suite (released September 2023) with modules for purchase orders, goods-in, labels, shelf replenishment, yard collection, stock takes, and depot transfer; Agility Accounts for financial reporting; and built-in delivery scheduling.

The platform is positioned for specialized retail verticals — Builders Merchants (with timber cubic-meter-to-length conversions), Fashion (multi-colour/size variants), Pet, Outdoor & Country Stores (batch control and expiration tracking), and Supermarkets (rapid checkout and loyalty/promotions) — suggesting a vertical-specialization go-to-market. Revenue is generated through one-time license sales for the EPOS system combined with recurring revenue from ongoing support and maintenance plus the mobile app subscription. Distribution is sales-led via the company website (demo request and contact forms), supplemented by trade show attendance (e.g., The Hardware Show 2022 in Dublin), an email newsletter, and the Google Play Store for the mobile app. The company holds GDPR compliance and Cyber Essentials certifications, and its ownership structure is not publicly disclosed; the website footer references SenServe, though the nature of that relationship is unstated.
