Bezons, 9 June 2021 – Worldline [Euronext: WLN], the European leader in payment and transaction services, announces a pilot to develop Pick-Go-Pay, a contactless, unmanned payment experience in the Netherlands.
With Pick-Go-Pay, customers can enter the shop at any time to buy products in a secure environment, without checkout staff in the shop. The aim of this new solution is to bring sales back to remote areas while providing a contactless and convenient payment experience.
As shops close, small towns lose residents and business is not profitable in these remote areas, Worldline aims to provide a contactless, unmanned checkout option that is appropriate and convenient for all customers.
The Pick-Go-Pay solution is integrated into Innovend’s LockBlox & Zuply solutions. The pilot was launched in June in the Netherlands in Nieuwendijk together with Wordline’s partners Innovend and Fruitschuur Oostveen.
Pick-Go-Pay addresses all difficulties in the customer’s journey:
- CRM information
- User detection
- Automatic user vertification
- Fraud detection
- Innovative architecture, secure and reliable vertification.
- Flawless payment: without card, without cash.
Michel Léger, EVP Global Solutions Development, TSS, Worldline: ‘With this pilot – with the ambition to develop more in the near future – Wordline aims to transform its customers’ business into a real shop with the ultimate contactless payment experience, while enabling the development of a customer base to have the card on file for future transactions.’
Sander Sciarone, managing director of Innovend, says: ‘By integrating the Pick-Go-Pay app into our software, we have created an additional, innovative and easy way for our customers to use our smart vending solutions more. Innovation and convenience are important for our LockBlox and Zuply solutions. The Pick-Pay-Go application fits perfectly with this experience.’
