Convenient App-Only Checkouts

7-Eleven Mobile Checkout in NYC Helps Customers Skip the Line

— August 19, 2019 — Business
With the busy New Yorker in mind, 7-Eleven is now introducing Mobile Checkout for a next-level convenience that allows shoppers to completely skip the line and pay for in-store purchases right from the 7-Eleven app. Additionally, the seamless checkout experience is integrated into the 7Rewards loyalty program, which makes it easy for customers to earn and redeem points or take advantage of any special in-store promotions.

For a limited time, those in New York where this new feature is available can take advantage of an introductory offer that provides up to $5 off a user's first transaction with 7-Eleven Mobile Checkout.

Naturally, some products that are sold in the convenience store—such as age-restricted items—will still require shoppers to go to a cashier for assistance.
Trend Themes
1. Mobile Checkout - The integration of mobile checkout in convenience stores eliminates the need for customers to wait in line, offering a more efficient and convenient shopping experience.
2. Seamless Loyalty Programs - Integrating the checkout process with loyalty programs allows customers to earn rewards, redeem points, and access special promotions, enhancing customer loyalty and engagement.
3. App-based Shopping - Enabling app-based shopping provides customers with the flexibility to purchase items in-store conveniently, opening up opportunities for personalized offers and tailored recommendations.
Industry Implications
1. Retail - Implementing mobile checkout and seamless loyalty programs in retail stores can increase customer satisfaction and drive sales by streamlining the purchasing process.
2. Convenience Stores - Adopting app-based shopping and mobile checkout in convenience stores can attract tech-savvy customers and differentiate the store from competitors, improving overall convenience.
3. Mobile Applications - Developing mobile apps for seamless checkouts and integrated loyalty programs presents opportunities for innovation and customer-centric experiences.
