The first deployment of A2Z Cust2Mate’s latest smart shopping cart is at a Monop Porte Maillot store in Paris, France.

The launch of the Cust2Mate 3.0 cart is part of a framework agreement with IR2S, an integrator of retail technologies, to deploy 30,000 smart carts by 2026 across retail chains in France.

The smart shopping carts that were deployed have an all-in-one clip-on panel equipped with AI technology, self-scanning and in-cart payments for a convenient pick-and-go experience.

The 3.0 carts enable the connected store, combining online and physical shopping to offer exclusive promotions and personalised product recommendations as if shopping online. These carts enhance convenience, redefine the shopping experience and streamline the checkout process, improving shopper satisfaction while increasing basket size and reducing shrinkage for retailers.

Israeli company A2Z Cust2Mate (cust2mate.com) produces a mobile self-checkout shopping cart. With its user-friendly smart algorithm, touch screen and other technologies, it streamlines the retail shopping experience by scanning purchased products and enabling in-cart payment so shoppers can simply pick and go, and bypass long cashier checkout queues. This results in a more efficient shopping experience, less unused shelf-space and manpower requirements, and command and control capabilities for store managers.
