Self-Checkout: Simplify the Shopping Experience
Self-checkout is one of the most widely used self-service solutions available today. Once only seen in the “express lanes” of grocery stores, self-checkout has expanded to big-box stores, clothing retailers, and more. Polls show that 73% of shoppers prefer self-checkout over staffed checkout lines, and 85% of Gen Z consumers use self-checkout when available. In addition to improving customer satisfaction, self-checkout reduces wait times and staff overhead. Beyond traditional retail, a self-checkout machine can be a convenient addition to sports venues, movie theaters, and pantry areas at hotels.
Camera Vision Self Checkout
Ideal for cafeterias, entertainment venues, or anywhere non-barcoded items are sold, this innovative self-checkout kiosk solution extends the convenience of self-checkout to new locations. Advanced cameras are programmed to recognize in-stock items at the retail location. Customers simply place the items under the camera, and the system instantly adds them to the checkout screen; no barcode scanning needed. Once items are recognized, the customer completes transactions with cash, card, or contactless payment, reducing long checkout lines.
This solution has been designed as an added value layer. It can be integrated with your current software stack: POS, ERP, loyalty platforms, etc.
