GK Software Remains the Global Leader in New POS System Installations
Schöneck, 11.11.2026 (PresseBox) -
The 2026 Global POS Software Study by Datos Insights confirms GK Software’s leading position in new installations worldwide.
Datos Insights’ Global POS Software Study 2026 confirms GK Software's leading position in grocery retail, Western Europe, and the Middle East & Africa region.
GK Software accounts for 8 percent of all new POS systems installations worldwide.
GK Software has reinforced its position as one of the world's leading providers of retail technology solutions. According to the latest Global POS Software 2026 study by Datos Insights, GK Software achieved the highest number of new point-of-sale (POS) installations worldwide across all retail segments, accounting for 8 percent of all new POS installations worldwide during the reporting period.
This result was driven primarily by the successful completion of major rollout projects, including those for a major grocery chain in Europe and retailers in the US, such as a fuel and convenience retailer and a general merchandise retailer. It was also driven by growth initiatives within GK’s existing global customer base. “Being number one in new installations worldwide isn't a marketing claim. It's what happens when the world's most demanding retailers put their stores on our platform and we deliver. Europe's grocery leaders, America's fuel and convenience champions, global general merchandise: different formats, one platform, live at scale.” said Michael Scheibner, CEO of GK Software SE.
The Global POS Software 2026 study by Datos Insights provides one of the industry's most comprehensive analyses of the worldwide POS software market. The report covers more than 140 POS software vendors across 48 countries in six regions. Its findings are based on retailers with projects exceeding 1,000 POS software installations and include both installed base and new installation data.
Leading Positions Across Key Markets
GK Software further solidified its position as a leader in the global point-of-sale (POS) software market by recording the highest number of new POS system installations worldwide, accounting for 8 percent of all new deployments. GK Software led the grocery segment globally, accounting for 13 percent of new installations, and ranked first for new POS software deployments in Western Europe.
This success was largely driven by the completion of a rollout in France and ongoing implementations for major convenience and grocery retailers. In the Middle East and Africa (MEA), GK Software maintained its market leadership by combining the region's largest installed POS software base with the highest number of new installations. This was supported by ongoing deployments for retailers across multiple African countries.
The Global POS Software 2026 results reaffirm GK Software's global market relevance and highlight the growing demand for scalable, cloud-ready retail technology platforms capable of supporting retailers' long-term digital transformation strategies.
