The response has been phenomenal—store owners are embracing the innovation and appreciate the efficiency, consumers love the speed and convenience, and employees see it as an enhancement, not a replacement for their roles.

Our Self Checkout solution is tailored for card-paying customers with smaller baskets who value a seamless shopping experience. Interestingly, while 70% of consumers typically purchase 15 items or less, data from the past three months shows an average basket size of nearly 20 items! This underscores a growing appetite for Self Checkout and streamlined retail experiences.

But it’s not just about speed—SCO is a game-changer in retail space optimisation. Two SCO terminals fit within the same footprint as one traditional checkout lane, effectively doubling checkout capacity while freeing up valuable store space for merchandising and customer experience enhancements.

We also recognise that shopping is a personal experience. Some customers still prefer traditional checkout lanes for cash payments, friendly interactions, and the convenience of bag packers. That’s why Arch Retail’s SCO solution is designed to complement, not replace, traditional checkout, offering a flexible, hybrid approach that meets diverse customer preferences.
