Aldi innovates with cashless payment technology

Aldi is trialing cashless payment technology in partnership with Grabango at one of its supermarkets in Aurora, near Chicago. The system, integrated without changing the layout of products on the shelves, allows customers to shop and pay either with their payment card or via the Grabango app at the pay station near the exit. Despite the technical challenges and the lessons learned from Amazon's failure with its cashierless stores, Aldi is taking the risk of testing this technology, underlining the need for a considered and adaptable approach in this constantly evolving field.
