Frequently Asked Questions

In-store counter collection requires staff involvement, resulting in longer wait times and higher labour costs. On the other hand, automated retail lockers provide a contactless, self-serve experience where customers can complete their collection or returns in under two minutes. This efficiency saves retailers time and money, reduces in-store congestion, and offers customers greater flexibility with 24/7 access to their orders through systems.

In-store locker systems streamline the entire order fulfillment process by providing real-time data on each stage of the transaction. From when an order is placed in the locker to when it’s collected by the customer, retailers benefit from improved visibility. These systems seamlessly integrate with existing order management software, enabling smooth BOPIS (Buy Online, Pick-up In Store) operations. With this setup, collection is more efficient, and retailers can reduce operational costs.

Retail smart lockers drive customer satisfaction by offering a quick and easy collection process, typically under 30 seconds. This convenience not only enhances the in-store experience but also encourages additional purchases. In fact, customers make incremental purchases while collecting their orders, and those using smart lockers are more likely to return for future orders, boosting overall sales and customer loyalty.
