To continue to the success of SmartShop, Sainsbury's is introducing Sainsbury's SmartShop Pick and Go, a contactless and checkout-free shopping service. The experience starts by having customers scan a QR code from their SmartShop app, which will automatically charge items to their linked credit or debit card as they take items off of shelves. If items are placed back onto shelves, those charges are removed, and customers are charged the appropriate amount as they leave the store.
The demand for contactless shopping experiences has been heightened over the last few years and this service helps to make shopping more seamless and convenient by eliminating long lines and other pain points. With features that draw from the best aspects of online shopping, SmartShop Pick and Go helps to assist shoppers and staff alike.
