Self-Checkout Systems Market Size to Surpass USD 13.54 Billion by 2030 – The Brainy Insights

Published

on

Newark, June 06, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The global self-checkout systems market is expected to grow from USD 4.01 billion in 2021 to USD 13.54 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 14.48% during the forecast period 2022-2030. Self-checkouts are automated devices that help customers order and pay for their purchases without help from retail, grocery, and hotel staff members. Early self-checkout systems had distinct, commercially available parts and needed much storage space. On the other hand, in response to demand, the current self-checkout systems are being modified and built to match the store’s layout and improve their usefulness, reliability, affordability, and compact size. If there were more hypermarkets, supermarkets, department stores, and other sorts of businesses nearby, the market for self-checkout systems would be way more valuable. Knowledgeable consumers and rising personal disposable money are other indirect market development drivers. However, a critical barrier to the growth of this industry will be the low acceptance rate caused by customers’ unwillingness to utilize self-checkout devices. The high probability of inventory theft and shoplifting will further restrain the expansion of this market. Self-checkout system market growth may be further slowed by high start-up and recurring costs.

The self-checkout systems market refers to the industry involved in the development, production, and deployment of automated systems that allow customers to scan and pay for their purchases without the assistance of a cashier or store employee. Self-checkout systems typically consist of a combination of hardware, such as barcode scanners, payment terminals, and bagging areas, along with software that facilitates the scanning, payment, and transaction processes.

The self-checkout systems market has witnessed significant growth in recent years, driven by several factors:

Improved Customer Experience: Self-checkout systems offer convenience and speed to customers by reducing waiting times and providing a more streamlined checkout process. Customers can scan and pay for their items at their own pace, enhancing the overall shopping experience.

Cost Reduction for Retailers: Self-checkout systems can help retailers reduce labor costs by requiring fewer cashiers. With these systems, stores can operate with a smaller workforce or redeploy employees to focus on other areas of the store, such as customer service.

Increased Efficiency: Self-checkout systems can enhance operational efficiency by reducing queues at traditional checkout lanes, especially during peak hours. They can handle a higher volume of transactions, allowing retailers to process more customers quickly.

Empowering Consumer Control: Self-checkout systems provide customers with a sense of control over their shopping experience. They can independently scan and bag their items, ensuring accuracy and reducing potential errors made by cashiers.

Integration with Mobile Payments: Many self-checkout systems are compatible with mobile payment platforms, enabling customers to make payments using their smartphones or mobile wallets. This aligns with the growing trend of mobile payment adoption and offers customers additional payment options.

Expansion in Various Retail Sectors: Self-checkout systems are being adopted across a wide range of retail sectors, including supermarkets, department stores, convenience stores, and specialty stores. The versatility of these systems allows retailers of different sizes and formats to benefit from their implementation.

astro,-malaysia’s-largest-broadcaster-selects-amagi-and-aws-to-transition-playout-services-to-the-cloud

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Amagi, the leader in cloud-based SaaS technology for broadcast and connected TV (CTV), deployed on Amazon Web Services (AWS), today announced its partnership with Malaysia’s leading media and entertainment company – Astro Malaysia Holdings Berhad (Astro). 

Astro, Malaysia’s leading content and entertainment company, in partnership with Amagi, is modernizing systems and infrastructure for the playout and origination of its existing Linear Channels and Playout Disaster Recovery capabilities and transitioning them to AWS, the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud. This marks a milestone in ASEAN’s broadcast industry. The Amagi playout deployment will help Astro optimize its media operations, enhance business agility, increase service resilience, and mitigate the risks of maintaining legacy systems.
The upcoming launch of the AWS Asia Pacific (Malaysia) Region complements Astro’s ongoing broadcast transformation journey, which aims to further enable the deployment of innovative media and entertainment solutions. By capitalizing on the robust cloud infrastructure, unparalleled scalability, and advanced services provided by AWS, Astro aims to further improve enhanced in-country network infrastructure resiliency and performance, thus delivering enriched customer experiences.
Defining the Future of Broadcast
Broadcasters have traditionally managed their channel automation and playout systems within on-premises data centers. As Astro continues its expansion across multiple regions, the organization will see workflows being optimized, media operations enhanced, and playout system management streamlined. To further complement the company’s pursuit of these goals, Astro will implement Amagi’s flagship products on AWS: the Amagi CLOUDPORT channel playout platform and the Amagi MONITORING solution. These advanced solutions will support Astro’s commitment to operational excellence, offering enhanced resiliency and enabling quicker upgrades to service capabilities, thereby meeting the evolving needs of the broadcasting landscape.
Mauro Di Pietro Paolo, Chief Technology Officer at Astro said, “As Malaysia’s leading broadcaster, Astro continues to drive innovation, and our partnership with Amagi underscores our continuous dedication to pioneering advancements in the industry. At Astro, we needed a playout platform that would align with our vision for transformation in our broadcast and media operations, have in-built disaster recovery capabilities, and provide a modernization path for our end-of-life on-premises systems. We’ve selected Amagi because of their proven track record of deploying playout systems on AWS and have demonstrated their ability to be a transformational platform.”
Srinivasan KA, Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer at Amagi said, “We are delighted to partner with Astro, one of the most innovative and forward-looking media companies in Asia, to help them achieve their cloud transformation goals. By leveraging our cloud-native solutions built on AWS’s global infrastructure, we can provide Astro with a scalable, secure, and cost-effective playout platform to support their current and future needs. This collaboration also demonstrates our commitment to empowering media companies with cutting-edge cloud technology and best-in-class service.”
“The broadcast industry is rapidly changing, requiring broadcasters to stay competitive with increased agility, resiliency, cost efficiency, and unified workflows, which can be achieved with AWS cloud. AWS is proud to work with solutions providers like Amagi to drive the industry forward,” said Pete Murray, Country Manager at AWS. “We’re thrilled to see our long-term customer Astro continue its transformative journey to delight their customers, and with Amagi, we look forward to digitalizing and advancing the future of Malaysia’s media and entertainment industry.”
Amagi and Astro launched broadcast station playout origination on AWS for the first channels and disaster recovery services in May 2024. This marks the first large-scale, cloud-based playout solution by a broadcaster in Malaysia. To meet the ever-changing needs of these networks, Amagi will continue to work closely with Astro to scale and evolve its Amagi CLOUDPORT solution.
