Surefire Systems - a POS for Retailers looking for an Alternative to GaP

Updated: Oct 2


As your business grows, you may find your current Point of Sale (POS) software hasn’t kept up - perhaps due to constraining features, limited enhancements, or lack of flexibility.


At Surefire Systems, part of our ethos is helping growing businesses assess if we're a better retail management solution for their needs. The best way to explore whether Surefire is right for you is through a complimentary discovery session - no pressure, just a chance to share what you need and learn what we offer, so we can both determine if Surefire is a better match for your next stage of growth.


We can’t claim we’re a better fit than POS vendors that rank higher in a Google search - such as GaP or Lightspeed - or even your current solution. Simply because we don’t know the finer details of these POS solutions. What we do know is that many customers have confidently made the switch to Surefire Systems and continued to grow with new stores opening and operating with our Surefire POS software. We've leveraged that experience to continually evolve our offering, ready for any retailer looking for an alternative to their current POS solution.


Based in Melbourne, Australia, Surefire system has been supporting retailers in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia Pacific for over 20 years with powerful retail management solutions. Now part of Vela APX (a Constellation Software company), we offer the stability of a global business with the responsiveness of a local partner.


We specialise in POS for retailers who require more than just the basics. Our smart retail platform is relied on by independent and multi-store retail groups across liquor, grocery, Asian grocery, fabric, camping, and more, including Liquorland, KFL, Ritchies Supermarkets, Spotlight, and Anaconda.
