What SACS Software does

SACS Software Limited is a London-based, privately held company established in 1991 that originated as a firm of accountants and computer consultants before specialising in Electronic Point of Sale (EPOS) software integrated with Sage 50 Accounts and Sage 200. The company serves UK small and medium-sized retail businesses across verticals including antique stores, food markets, hardware stores, clothing and fashion, paint and decoration, music instruments, furniture, electronics, and book stores. It also addresses multi-location retailers and, via dedicated modules, the hospitality and plant hire verticals.

The core technology is SACS POS Enterprise, a Windows-based EPOS system that transfers line item detail directly into Sage 50 without redundant accounting features. The product portfolio includes touchscreen (SACS Touchi POS), browser-based (SACS Online POS), hospitality-oriented (SACS Restaurant POS), and multi-till (SACS Enterprise Client) variants, complemented by SACS Stock Manager and SACS Stock Master for inventory and mobile scanning, SACS BarLabel for barcode label printing, SACS MTD for Making Tax Digital VAT compliance, and SACS Rental for plant hire management. Compatible POS hardware is supplied from a certified partner ecosystem including Honeywell, Zebra, Epson, TSC, Verifone, Posiflex, AURES, and Unitech, with networking equipment from Zyxel, Netgear, and DrayTek.

The business model combines one-time perpetual software licences (£350 per additional POS station), hardware sales and installation, professional services (consultancy, training, network cabling, configuration), and annual support contracts. Distribution is direct from the London headquarters (31 Metro Centre, Park Royal, NW10 7PA) via telephone (020-8961-5151) and website contact channels, supported by an in-house training centre and extended business hours including Saturdays. Revenue is supplemented by an affiliate network across Europe. The company is a UK private limited company, GDPR-compliant and ICO-registered (C1199260), with no disclosed institutional investors, parent company, M&A activity, or external funding.

Broad incumbents
