FAQsFrequently Asked Questions
Why do I need self-checkout in my store?
Recent studies indicate that self-checkout popularity is on the rise and is preferred by nearly half of all shoppers for reasons like speed, no lines, bagging preferences, and price visibility. If you pride yourself in your store’s emphasis on the human connection, self-checkout units could play a key role in freeing up associates to focus on the customer. Adding another checkout method gives customers the option to choose their experience, which is always a win.
Does this replace my cashiers?
Outside of meeting customer demands, the purpose of implementing self-checkout units is so you can redeploy cashiers to other areas of your store to perform tasks that require human interaction. For example, if you replace three traditional attended lanes with a self-checkout area, you can redeploy two of those cashiers to pick e-Commerce orders or stock shelves while the third manages all three lanes simultaneously.
What features will help me manage theft and shrink at self-checkout?
Giving shoppers too much power is a valid concern. However, ECRS offers several patented features to help keep shrink low and engagement high. Weighted bagging scales are available to help detect weight discrepancies. Walkaway Detection, Weight Security, and Prompt Customer Assistance alerts are built to discourage theft and increase engagement during the checkout experience.
How do I pick the best unit for my store footprint and use case?
ECRS has a variety of SCO configurations. To get started, first you must determine how you intend to use the unit, and then identify the best location for that unit. Once you know how much space you have to work with, you can select the SCO size that fits your needs.
What do I stand to gain from my investment?
An investment in self-checkout will not only improve the customer experience by giving shoppers more checkout options, it will also improve the employee experience by giving them more fulfilling tasks. You may also see an increase in throughput with faster checkout speeds, a decrease in line length, and a more positive perception overall for your business by investing in proven technology.
