Getting started 📚
A friendly guide to help our retail partners get started with introducing Pendoo to their brick-and-mortar stores. The real new era of retail awaits, so let's get going 🚀
🔬 What's Pendoo?
On the face of it, Pendoo is a scan-and-go technology. It allows retail consumers to use their mobile device to scan product barcodes, add them to their digital basket and ultimately check-out. All on their device.
Pendoo is distributed as a web-application. From a consumer-perspective, this means that we eliminate the need for a native application download, such as an iOS or Android application. While we appreciate a big part of the consumer audience have grown to like native applications (who doesn't, right?), in this instance we feel that the saying there's a time and a place is quite fitting. Our priorities are such that a download requirement would hinder our barrier-less setup.
Ultimately, we aim at making it as easy as possible for retail customers to complete a checkout as quickly and painlessly as possible. All the while, retail staff are reallocated onto shop-floor-critical tasks, such as assisting and actually selling to customers, instead of being stuck behind a screen carrying out transactions.
Let's re-think retail. Let's re-build it around a key pillar: human interaction. Let's promote human ingenuity and let's not confine our retail staff behind a screen - portable or not.
