Epos Now is a SaaS and payments services provider focusing on small, medium, and enterprise businesses within the retail, hospitality, and personal care sectors. The company offers a cloud-based POS and payments platform that enables merchants to manage sales, inventory, staff, and payments via a unified interface.[1]

History

Epos Now was founded in Norwich, England, in 2011 by Jacyn Heavens, who serves as the company’s chief executive officer.[2][3] The company initially operated as a small startup developing electronic point-of-sale (EPOS) softwares.[4]

In the mid-2010s, Epos Now began expanding internationally, and in 2015 it opened its first United States office in Orlando, Florida, to support its North American operations.[5][6]

In February 2020, Epos Now announced the acquisition of Australia’s Epos Systems Pty, which added new resources and customers in the Asia-Pacific region.[7]

By late 2023, the company reported revenue of £59.6 million, representing a year-on-year increase of 25%. Epos Now was exploring strategic options, including the potential sale of a minority stake at an estimated valuation of approximately US$1.5 billion.[8]

Epos Now was listed as the 24th fastest-growing UK technology company in 2023 on the E2E Tech 100 list in partnership with The Independent.[9]

In November 2023, Epos Now was recognised as the fastest-growing technology company in Cambridgeshire and the East of England by Deloitte Fast 50.[10]

In December 2024, Epos Now announced it was acquiring Yoello, a Cardiff-based fintech startup specialising in QR-ordering and open-banking payments.[11] This deal was presented as a way to enhance Epos Now’s embedded finance and mobile ordering capabilities, and was cited in industry press as solidifying its position in the global payments market.[11]

As of 2025, according to a company statement, Epos Now reports annual revenues over US$150 million and serving around 90,000 merchant locations in 11 countries.[12] The company maintains a presence in various regions, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, the United States, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Spain, and Canada.[13]

Platform and services

Epos Now provides a cloud-based POS platform used in the retail and hospitality sectors.[14] The system allows remote access to business data such as sales, inventory, transaction records, and supports centralised management of multiple locations.[14]

The software is compatible with different types of hardware, including touchscreen terminals and tablets.[15] Users may use proprietary hardware or compatible third-party devices.[16]

The platform supports integration with third-party applications, including accounting, e-commerce and CRM systems, enabling data exchange with external services such as bookkeeping, online sales and customer management tools.[17]
