Why ACR's One-Off Cost Model Offers Better Value Than Subscription EPOS Systems
in General July 14, 2025
Tired of endless monthly fees for your EPOS? ACR offers long-term value with a simple one-off cost and support that’s included for years to come.
Not Every EPOS System Is Built the Same
Many EPOS providers follow a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model—offering low upfront costs but locking you into long-term subscriptions. While that may seem manageable in the short term, the costs can quickly add up.
At ACR, we take a different approach. We believe in giving you full ownership of your system with no ongoing fees. You pay once. That’s it.
One-Off Cost vs Subscription: What’s the Real Difference?
| Feature | Typical Subscription Model | ACR EPOS |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront Cost | £0–£1200 | One-off system purchase |
| Monthly Fee | £30–£70 per terminal | £0 |
| Ownership | You lease the software/system | You own the system outright |
| Support | Often an added cost or limited hours | Included, 7 days a week |
| Contract Length | Usually every month, for the term of the contract | No contract |
| Total Cost Over 3 Years | £1,440–£2,920+ | Often less than half, with full ownership |
While the subscription model may look affordable at first, those fees continue indefinitely—and you never own the system.
With ACR, you make a one-time investment and get a fully integrated, reliable system backed by local support for years to come.
