Follow evolving protocols as they relate to lossprevention. Your POS system needs to account for that. Each device can perform core transactional functions — such as the ability to accept card and cash payments and scan products for efficient checkouts — offline. And process returns of stuff people don’t want!
That’s why it’s important to understand the most common forms of theft and the measures you can take to preventloss without deterring valued customers. External Theft According to the NRF, shoplifting and other forms of external theft, including burglary, accounted for 37% of reported shrink in 2022.
Technology — specifically edge computing — provides the foundation for a better customer experience, real-time inventory management, enhanced security and lossprevention and in-store analytics. Those same cameras and sensors also are at the heart of the grab-and-go checkout system featured in Amazon Go stores.
When they do, they create accounts and pass credit checks using stolen consumer information. They then order and intercept items before these can be delivered to the unsuspecting victim, who is mostly unaware of accounts opened in their name or goods purchased on their account. Tokenized Data is Useless to Fraudsters.
Value Added Friction: A New Way to Look at LossPrevention at Self-Checkout. Michał Wesołowski, Checkpoint Systems, Strategic Account Manager. Frank Heinrich, Pentland Firth Software GmbH – a company forming part of the EDEKA Minden-Hannover Stiftung & Co. End-to-End Digitalisation in Claim Management.
Physical retail accounts for 75% of sales in the UK and new stores are opening all the time. One innovation we hope will gain more traction is scan-less self-checkout - it uses RFID tags for quick and easy checkout, reduced queues, integrated lossprevention and automatically updated inventory.
In terms of security and lossprevention, facial recognition can be used to identify known shoplifters or individuals with a history of fraudulent activities, alerting store security personnel and preventing potential theft or fraud. Additionally, it can help monitor employee behaviour and prevent internal theft.
However, traditional spreadsheet analytics cannot account for store-by-store variations in the promotion’s effectiveness or secondary effects such as demand cannibalization. Online sales now account for more than 20% of total retail sales. Online sales are as mission-critical as in-store sales to today’s retail business.
At checkout, the shopper would have multiple fulfillment options to select from – including BOPIS. The rise of at-home delivery forced lossprevention managers to start looking beyond the store. Whereas BOPIS shifts the delivery to the retail premises where store employees and lossprevention practices control every order.
Inferring meaningful information from digital images and videos: retailers’ hopes to have a new, highly efficient tool against shoplifting, loss and organised crime in future are based on Computer Vision, a sub-segment of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The camera points at the scan area of the self-checkout terminal.
