Veeve and Albertsons Companies Partner To Expand AI-Powered Carts in Stores, Giving Customers a Fast and Contactless Way to Shop
Veeve Smart Carts deliver a personalized and location-aware shopping experience that streamlines shopping lists, loyalty and check out
Veeve Inc. , a leading retail technology startup, announced an agreement with Albertsons Companies that will make Veeve Smart Carts available to customers at a few dozen stores across the country. Once launched later this year, consumers will be able to use the smart carts to skip the checkout line with a fast, convenient, and contactless way to shop.
Veeve Smart Carts offer a more personalized shopping experience enabled by a touch screen that provides a running total for in-cart items and a built-in scale for easy produce purchase. The tech-enhanced carts will also integrate with the Albertsons for U™ loyalty program. Once done shopping, customers can complete payment on their cart and walk out, completely skipping the checkout line.
