MAPCO Opens Next Checkout-Free Store

Grabango's innovative technology allows customers to skip the line and pay without scanning their items

BERKELEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--MAPCO has launched its second checkout-free store. The Grabango-powered MAPCO store is located in Nashville, Tennessee and allows shoppers to skip the line instead of waiting to check out.

"We’re thrilled to bring Grabango’s seamless checkout experience to additional Nashville customers, who want quick and efficient visits,” said Frederic Chaveyriat, CEO of MAPCO. “We are seeing an increasing number of our shoppers opt for this faster, convenient checkout option, furthering our commitment to offering MAPCO customers a Better Break when they shop in-store."

As the leading checkout-free technology provider for large-scale store chains, Grabango uses computer vision to eliminate two of the biggest pain points experienced by shoppers - waiting in line and scanning items. By making checking out fast and easy, Grabango boosts shopper loyalty, reduces shrink and improves store operations. The easily-installed system doesn’t require shelf sensors, changes to store layout, or product mix, and operates seamlessly in large format stores.

“We are excited to expand our relationship with MAPCO with a second Grabango-powered store and to bring checkout-free shopping to more of their shoppers,” said Grabango CEO and co-founder Will Glaser. “Grabango is a true retrofit solution that simplifies shopping without burdening the retailer. Shoppers can pay with a credit card, debit card or use their mobile wallet.”
