Tesco Stores Malaysia has selected NCR self-checkout technology for convenient checkout option for its customers in Malaysia.
Tesco Malaysia customers will have the freedom to scan, bag and pay for goods themselves, without waiting in long queues.
The Tesco store at IOI City Mall in Putrajaya has already deployed NCR self-checkout technology as part of the pilot project.
Tesco KSL City in Johor will also install the NCR self-checkout solution in the next phase to provide user-friendly interface and touch screen that guides shoppers through the checkout process with animated demonstrations for faster transactions.
Tesco first started using NCR SelfServ checkout in the U.K. in 2002. Tesco stores in Ireland, the U.S., Central and Eastern Europe, South Korea and Thailand are deploying the NCR technology.
NCR says self-checkout solutions can reduce wait times by as much as 40 percent while nearly two thirds of shoppers say stores that offer the option of self-checkout provide better customer services.
