All in one POS machine to realize Mini self-service

All in one POS machine to realize “one-click upgrade” of convenience store operation

Many people know that running food and beverage retail has a profit return cycle. Some food and drink retail stores can achieve the balance of income and expenditure or even make profits soon because of the short return cycle. However, if the return cycle is too long, it will lead to turnover difficulties or even finally go bankrupt.

While traditional convenience stores are struggling, some of the newer stores are turning a profit earlier by upgrading smart retail technology, including the use of smart cash registers.

Take Bianlifeng as an example, most of the stores use intelligent self-service cashier machines to improve cashier efficiency and reduce personnel costs, liberate the assistants from the repetitive and complicated work of the cash register, and spend more time on making fresh food, putting goods on the shelves, taking care of goods, and providing services to customers. At some convenience store chains, fresh food sales account for about 50% of gross profit. For customers, convenience store self-service cash registers also shorten the checkout queue time, providing customers with one more checkout and payment methods.

Customers only need to scan the product barcode before the scanning box of the self-service cashier and settlement machine in the convenience store. The cashier and settlement machine in the convenience store can automatically identify the commodity information and price, and conduct the amount accounting. Customers then scan the code for payment or scan their face for payment on the cashier and settlement integrated machine in the convenience store, then they can complete the payment and print the receipt. The whole process does not require shop assistants to operate, which improves the flexibility and efficiency of the cashier and collection.

Convenience store cash registers use self-service cashier POS machines to realize automatic and real-time interaction between data and equipment. From the convenience store manpower cost comparison, the purchase of self-service checkout and settlement machines will be lower than the long-term employment of shop assistants.

Smart hardware used in food and beverage retail outlets can do more than just self-service cash registers in convenience stores. For example, the use of RFID electronic price tags for dynamic price adjustment, one key to change the price and promotion information, without the need to re-affixed a new label. It can even scan the QR code to remind the approaching and expiration of the food with short shelf life, effectively reducing the food waste.

In the final analysis, the key core of self-service cashier and no-one cashier of convenience stores is to reconstruct the human and goods yard digitally, and make the sales record be recorded in real time like e-commerce transactions, so as to realize the perfect match between people and goods, and analyze the consumption preferences of each customer, so as to provide digital basis for business strategy.
