Checkpoint Systems, a provider of RFID and RF technology solutions, has teamed with Partner Tech Europe, a POS solutions manufacturer, to develop the next generation of self-service checkouts.
The Fashion RFID SCO will allow shoppers to place their garments directly in the kiosk and will automatically identify the RFID tags, determining whether the garment has been paid for or not. The new solution will enable customers to check out quickly, while providing loss prevention.
Fashion RFID SCO will also assist apparel retailers in detecting theft, the identification of multi-packs, multiple items, non-barcoded items and non-readable QR codes.
The solution will deactivate soft tags when a payment has been verified — reducing false alarms. With the shopper simply placing items into an area on the checkout desk, barcode scanning issues are also instantly removed.
The RFID-based SCO will also provide data about individual purchases that, when combined with inventory information, can help stores replenish merchandise quicker and reduce the number of out-of-stock scenarios.
