Network, GMG to implement mPOS at Sun & Stand Sports

DUBAI, February 8, 2016

Network International, a leading payment solutions provider in the Middle East and North Africa (Mena) region, in partnership with GMG (Gulf Marketing Group) has implemented a queue busting mobile point of sale (mPOS1) solution for GMG’s leading retail brand Sun & Sand Sports.
 
The mobility solution is the region’s first mPOS solution that uses the Verifone E315 iOS platform and has been implemented in Sun & Sand Sports’ flagship stores in The Dubai Mall and City Centre Me’aisem, said a statement.
 
The integrated all-in-one-device has an iOS based application which can scan barcodes, check inventory and price and conduct card payment transactions. 
 
The digital experience has been completed with an email receipt, enabling stores to offer customers a seamless shopping experience. 
 
The new technology complements the dynamic digital environment, touch-screen displays, interactive trial zones and innovative consumer journey that visitors already enjoy in Sun & Sand Sports’ concept stores.
 
Bhairav Trivedi, chief executive officer, Network International, said: “Mobility payment solutions can be a game-changer in a busy retail environment, as they can boost a store’s capacity and operational efficiency. 
 
"In a competitive environment where customers value the shopping experience as much as easy access to products, mPOS can prove to be a key differentiator.”
 
Meanwhile, GMG has announced plans to roll out mPOS solutions across other stores in the next twelve months.
 
Bilal Abdel Hadi, vice president – Information Technology, Gulf Marketing Group, said: “The retail industry across the GCC is continually evolving and consumers are becoming increasingly demanding when it comes to their in-store experience. 
 
"We pride ourselves on being at the cutting edge of delivering a retail journey that puts our customers first and believe that this will be greatly enhanced by introducing the NI mPOS solution, which enables our sales team to focus on providing even better customer service with zero waiting time once consumers make a purchase decision.” - TradeArabia News Service
