A self-checkout service has been launched by Carrefour, owned and operated by Majid Al Futtaim in Bahrain in collaboration with CrediMax. It is a first-of-its-kind service in the kingdom at Carrefour City Centre and Bahrain Mall hypermarkets.

A hand-held device, simple to use with a bank card or smartphone, allows customers to scan and bag purchases at Carrefour stores.

Using the device, customers can scan the barcode of each product at the dedicated self-checkout area to process their payment — via a debit/credit card or MyClub points.

The service is easy to use: when completing any transaction, customers simply scan and bag their items at the dedicated self-checkout counters. There is an option to scan a MyClub card barcode and select a preferred payment method. Then, shoppers can exit by scanning the barcode on their printed receipt at the dedicated gate scanner.

Laurent Hausknecht, regional director of Gulf, at Majid Al Futtaim Retail said: “At Carrefour, we take great pride in offering the most convenient and integrated shopping experiences possible. We understand that today, more so than ever, customers want a premium on convenience and quality customer service. The self-checkout service enables us to provide that, empowering customers with more autonomy and control. Its use of cashless payments limits unnecessary contact with other customers and touchpoints, offering shoppers avoidance of longer queues and added comfort.”

Ahmed A. Seyadi, chief executive of CrediMax commented: “We are pleased to be able to contribute and support our client’s digital journey by providing convenient seamless payment channels. Enabling users to enrich their card payment experience in their day to day lifestyle comes within CrediMax’s framework to provide innovative digital solutions that serves the Kingdom of Bahrain and its digital transformation vision.”
