A few months ago, news broke about new technology being implemented in Sam’s Club stores that would help customers get through the checkout process faster than before. The program, known as AI receipt verification, is unique to Sam’s Club and uses a combination of computer vision and digital technology to verify payment as customers leave the store.
The new technology aims to eliminate the need for staff members to check receipts as customers exit the store. The system has been rolled out in about 120 stores, mostly located in Southern States. While there may be potential glitches, the gradual rollout is designed to address any issues that may arise.
For customers who already use the Scan and Go feature, there will be no changes to their usual process. The new technology is meant to enhance the checkout experience and improve efficiency for shoppers. Overall, the implementation of AI receipt verification is seen as a positive step towards modernizing the checkout process at Sam’s Club locations nationwide.
In addition to the new technology at Sam’s Club, big-box stores across the country have been repurposed for various innovative businesses and services. From experiential opportunities to creative uses of space, these closures have led to new opportunities for local communities and economies. As the retail landscape continues to evolve, these adaptable spaces provide a platform for new and exciting ventures to thrive.
