Self-service makes sense. In a time-starved world, shoppers and retailers value speed of purchase, the surety of an online trail and the ability to engage on a mobile device, wherever and whenever they are.
Covid-19 has added impetus to the move away from face-to-face interaction. Here are some recent statistics.
- 13% of Americans are using self-checkout more often and 79% intend to continue
- 27% of small businesses in the United States have reported an increase in contactless payment services like as Apple Pay, according to a survey by the Electronic Transactions Association
- 32% of Americans have said they are speeding up shopping trips
Customers may be more comfortable buying without engaging with associates, but self-service doesn’t have to be impersonal. The rise of online shopping, in-store apps and geo-location technology means retailers have access to an incredible range of customer data. Harness that data at an individual level, and you can still personalize the engagement, even if it’s a swift shop performed without human interaction.
