Most shoppers with a large quantity of items don’t want to use small self-checkouts. And you shouldn’t want them slowing down your self-checkout section with trolleys full of goods either.
The fundamental problem with using self-checkouts for large purchases is the process:
Scan-bag-scan-bag-scan-bag-scan-bag-scan-bag………-Pay
Only one shopper can checkout at a time. With TwinFlow, this process becomes:
Scan-Pay-Bag (While the next shopper scans)
Twinflow is a self-checkout solution designed to speed up checkout times for larger purchases, allowing a single checkout to process 40% more transactions. The bagging area of the Twinflow is divided in two by an automatic arm that closes off a bagging section once a payment has been made. A second shopper can start scanning their items, with the independent conveyor belt directing these to the second bagging section. No waiting around for the first shopper to bag their goods or accidentally mixing up items by starting to scan before the first shopper has finished bagging.
