Storekey Advances Grocery Automation with Next-Gen Secure Payment Systems

The Swedish company Storekey is pioneering the next wave of grocery store technology by introducing advanced self-scanning and secure payment solutions, aimed at enabling fully or partly unmanned stores. While self-scanning technology has been available for years allowing customers to scan and pay via smartphones, Storekey is now launching a next-generation secure payment system designed to maintain operations even during complete system crashes. This innovation addresses growing concerns about reliability amidst frequent cash register system failures.

CEO Daniel Lundh announced that Storekey is currently rolling out these new technologies to its initial retail locations, signaling strong growth for the company within the expanding market for automated grocery solutions. As the sector experiences record profits, the move responds directly to rising demand for backup payment systems that ensure uninterrupted service.

This advance builds on Storekey's previous industry contributions, particularly its association with Lifvs, reinforcing the company's commitment to revolutionize retail automation. The rollout exemplifies the broader trend of technological integration in Swedish grocery retail, enhancing customer convenience and operational efficiency.

According to Dagligvarunytt, these developments are integral as retailers seek resilient, user-friendly payment systems to prevent disruptions and support unmanned store models.
