Waiting in line for receipt verification before exiting Sam's Club was a key concern for customers before Sam's Club introduced AI-powered exit technology. This frictionless experience helps members leave the club 23% faster after successfully confirming that members have paid for all items in their shopping carts, and it does so without the need for assistance from a Sam's Club store associate.
After unveiling its quick and convenient artificial intelligence and computer vision technology at the Consumer Electronics Show, Sam's Club has deployed the solution in more than 120 clubs. Sam’s Club’s rapid deployment of its exit technology is touted as "the largest-scale implementation of member-facing AI-powered technology in the retail industry." Sam’s Club plans to deploy the exit technology to all of its clubs by the end of 2024.
