Seamless Commerce Vision

hellofutureSEAMLESS COMMERCE VISION – SEPTEMBER 2015

Our Vision Of Seamless Commerce

Buying Things Today…Is A Hassle◦ Enter store

◦ Pick up items

◦ Wait in checkout line

◦ Cashier scans items

◦ Cashier takes payment

◦ Cashier disables security on items

◦ Leave store

◦ Among other things:◦ Did get the best deal?

◦ Did I buy the right thing?

Adding A Little Technology…◦ Enter store

◦ Take free shopping bag

◦ Place items in bag

◦ Pass by checkout stand

◦ Leave store

What Just Happened?◦ Item & shopping bag have sensors

◦ When you place item in shopping bag, bag tallies items

◦ When item is removed from bag, bag removes item from tally

◦ Bag talks to app on phone, does authorization for amount of items in bag

◦ As customer passes cash register, register makes purchase via default payment method and deactivates security on items in bag.

Or Make It Completely Seamless◦ Enter store

◦ Pick up items

◦ Leave store

What Just Happened?◦ As customer picks up and travels with items, app detects & logs items. Items use RFID/Bluetooth to

communicate with app on phone. Items can be placed in customers bag or cart, which is passive

◦ As customer leaves the store, app detects sensors in doorway, then charges customer for the items they are travelling with that deactivates the security on those items

◦ Start with high end use cases due to sensor cost, then expand as costs reduce

What Else Can Happen? The App Can…◦ Tell customer where they can find items in store

◦ Receive & display positional, customized offers

◦ Auto post images to social stream

◦ Be a wearable device
