How is it applied?
Consider the umdasch eXperience Platform (uXP), for instance. This cloud-based software solution effectively orchestrates, connects, and assesses the digital interactions within a store and across branches. Operating as a central hub, uXP seamlessly integrates the ERP system, digital signage components, electronic price labels, customer loyalty apps, and IoT store furniture, streamlining their management for users. This advancement signifies the integration of digitalization into every retail establishment.
However, a simpler solution exists, one that will metamorphose your shopping experience into something enjoyable once again.
Are you familiar with "Scan&Go"? It's a straightforward process where you scan your items, place them in your shopping cart, and then pay digitally via an app as you exit the store, eliminating the need for checkout queues. Does this sound unusual? It's actually a glimpse into the future! The concept of self-checkout has come to life through the Scan&Go solution offered by our partner SHOPREME.
