Checkers is revolutionising the South African shopping experience with its new Xpress Trolley! Say goodbye to long checkout queues and hello to a seamless, tech-driven grocery run. These smart trolleys are currently being trialled at two Checkers stores in the Western Cape.
How Does the Xpress Trolley Work?
The Xpress Trolley is packed with features designed to put you in control of your shopping:
- Scan as you Shop: Simply scan each item's barcode as you place it in your trolley.
- Real-Time Total: Keep track of your spending with a live, running total displayed on the trolley's user-friendly screen.
- Personalised Promotions: Get access to exclusive deals and promotions tailored just for you.
- In-Store Navigation: The screen helps you locate products within the store, saving you time and effort.
- Skip the Queue: Pay directly on the trolley using your bank card (linked to your Checkers Sixty60 account) and avoid the traditional checkout altogether!
A Frictionless Shopping Experience
Built by the ShopriteX innovation team, the Xpress Trolley aims to provide a frictionless and efficient shopping experience. No more waiting in line, no more bagging at the till – just scan, pay, and go! The trolley guides you through the process, making it easy to manage your shopping trip from start to finish.
To start, customers scan their Xtra Savings card. After initial testing with employees at Checkers Hyper Brackenfell, 10 trolleys will be available to customers at this store, and another 10 trolleys at Checkers Constantia. This innovation marks a significant step towards a more convenient and enjoyable shopping experience for South African consumers.
Will the Xpress Trolley become the new normal for grocery shopping in South Africa? Only time will tell, but it's certainly an exciting development!
