The number of self-service checkouts at the POS - also self-service checkouts or self-checkout systems - has increased significantly in recent years. And the trend is still upward. This means that the German retail sector is catching up with the rest of Europe in terms of digitization at the POS. The modern checkout systems are most frequently used in food retailing. But more and more DIY stores, drugstores, furniture and fashion department stores are also relying on self-service checkouts. Are your stores already equipped with the right technology for the checkout systems of the future of retail?
A smooth payment process is just as much a part of a positive shopping experience as exemplary customer service from your employees. Those who work with modern technology such as self-service checkouts at the point of sale (POS) in the retail sector therefore score twice: paying quickly and easily is not only more pleasant for customers. It also increases the throughput of payment transactions when the checkouts are busy - and thus sales for your business.
Long lines at the checkout and the associated waiting time often cause customers to abandon their purchase. Even worse: they no longer buy their items in the store (next time), but order directly online. The challenges for brick-and-mortar retailers: shorten waiting times at the checkout and provide a better shopping experience overall. With well-organized stores, you can respond accordingly and make your business more attractive again. First and foremost, an optimized checkout system, built with modern self-service checkouts. The goal: easy operation, fast and secure processing at the checkout - adapted to the high demands of your customers. Because the more user-friendly the checkout area is and the more comfortable your customer feels, the higher your throughput. So react in time and adapt your checkout systems to the requirements of your customers.
As experienced industry experts in retail scanner technology, DENSO has developed modern high-performance scanners for use in the checkout system directly at the POS. There is a choice of mobile barcode scanners and RFID scanners as well as stationary terminals. This allows customers to scan the barcodes or RFID tags of the items in their shopping cart themselves and then pay in the POS system. What distinguishes each product from DENSO: Highest precision and speed in scanning, combined with robust ergonomic design. Even poorly legible or damaged 1D and 2D codes are read quickly and reliably by the handheld scanners or barcode readers. The RFID scanners automatically detect the corresponding tags in a defined area just as confidently. One thing is certain: DENSO provides you with high-precision barcode scanners and/or RFID scanners for your POS system - as a solution for the simple, secure and fast handling of your customers' self checkout.
