Take me to PSFK iQ“rapitag is bringing secure 1-click-buying to the retail floor, eliminating queuing and creating a new omnichannel shopping experience.” Rethinking retail Anti-theft-devices become the point of sale rapitag is taking classical EAS (Electronic-Article-Surveillance) hardtags and payment processes in retail to another level by offering the world’s first patented security tag that can open itself automatically by using smart materials. With no need for a checkout counter or terminal, customers can simply hold their smartphones next to a rapitag attached to a shirt or digital camera, pay within the app, remove the tag and leave the store without ever waiting in a queue. 4 easy steps: Scan, Pay, Remove & Go. Everywhere and anytime in the store. The rapitag IoT will be reused and stays in the store (always active with our 24/7 theft protection).
