Kiosks, mobile staff devices, omnichannel

For

Retail, postal, FX and service outlets

Why go counterless

Fixed counters create queues, tie staff to one spot and take up valuable floor space. A counterless outlet puts routine transactions on self-service and frees staff to help customers wherever they are, so you serve more people, faster, in a more welcoming space.

The building blocks

Self-service kiosks

Kiosks for purchases, payments, orders, collections, returns and service requests, with card and mobile payments.

Roaming staff on mobile devices

Staff carry handheld POS and tablets to sell, take payments, check stock and help customers anywhere on the floor.

Omnichannel journeys

Start online, finish in store: click-and-collect, endless aisle, digital receipts and one customer account.

Smart lockers

Contactless collection for orders and parcels, 24/7.

Queue and footfall insight

Virtual queuing and AI people counting to plan staffing.

Back-office integration

Kiosks and devices linked to stock, payments, CRM and finance in real time.
