Digital innovations for the POS 

 

Vectron Systems AG is one of the largest European manufacturers of POS solutions: POS software, POS hardware, apps as well as digital and cloud-based services. The main sectors are catering, hotels and bakeries. In June 2024, we merged with the Shift4 Group.

Integrated solutions and digital services for more sales, automated processes and workflow optimisation are at the heart of development.

  • More than 250,000 POS systems sold since 1990
  • Distribution via about 300 specialist retail partners

The subsidiary acardo specialises in smart consumer activation and innovative sales promotion concepts - particularly for food retailers, drugstores, cinemas and pharmacies. In addition to many POS-based couponing solutions including shopper targeting - based on actual purchasing behaviour - acardo offers innovative tools such as its own cashback apps, Drive2Store concepts and exclusive retailer cooperations for a sustainable sales increase.

  • >30,000 stores in food retail, drug stores, pharmacies, cinema rely on acardo services
  • 200 B2B customers with 600 brands and 7,000 promotions p.a.
  • Proprietary cashback and coupon apps and a strong network with various dealer apps.

Synergies are used to expand the target sectors and offers of both companies.

Shift4

The merger with Shift4 took place in June 2024. The US group, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and has sales of more than USD 2.5 billion (2023), is a leading provider of software and payment processing solutions. Shift4 serves customers of all sizes across a wide range of industries, from small local owner-operated businesses to multinational corporations trading globally. The latter will be served seamlessly in the US and Europe as a result of the merger.

Shift4 will provide strategic and financial support to Vectron Systems AG's current business strategy to expand its market position and support growth strategies in Germany and other European markets. Vectron will distribute Shift4's payment solution in Germany and several European countries. Payment solutions that will be integrated into the POS system in the near future will reduce errors, optimise and accelerate processes and customers will receive their complete solutions from a single source.

The combination of Shift4's and Vectron's expertise strengthens both companies and offers expanded growth opportunities for all sales partners in Germany and abroad. Jared Isaacman, CEO Shift4 Payments: "The acquisition will help both our companies to continue to grow and expand globally as a leading provider of integrated payments and technology solutions. We are very much looking forward to realising the full potential of the merger together and also providing exciting development opportunities for the employees."

Tradition meets Innovation

The high quality standard has made Vectron the market leader in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and BeNeLux in the target sectors of hospitality and bakeries. The experience spectrum ranges from a single POS installation in a small town to a 1,000 POS network for branch customers.

High-quality and long-lasting hardware and software are the tried-and-tested basics, while digital services with real added value for customers constitute the success factor for the future.  

Digital services

Integrated processes for increased sales and efficiency

POS software

Basis for our digital eco system

We at Vectron Systems have been developing high-performance software for POS solutions since our foundation in 1990. With our original Vectron and Duratec POS software, we offer two powerful options for the point of sale. The software is also available for use as PC-variant and can be completed with mobile POS apps.

With posmatic, we also offer iOS-based POS software.

POs software

 

Back-office software for data flow between the checkout counter and administration, for semi-automated data analysis and accounting rounds off our software landscape today, but will be taken to a new level in the future with additional digital services.
