Marks and Spencer deploys Mobile Pay Go tech across UK

M&S has announced the roll-out of its checkout-free shopping technology Mobile Pay Go to all UK [owned] stores.

This lets customers buy their groceries, up to £45, without visiting a till, using the M&S mobile app.

At the start of March, the service was being trialled in 50 London stores. The retailer then accelerated its roll-out to over 300 locations across the UK and is now hitting full national deployment in 573 stores.

"We want to help our customers shop with confidence – especially as we head towards Christmas - and that’s why we’ve accelerated the roll-out of Mobile Pay Go to all our UK stores,” says Helen Milford, M&S Stores Director.

“With the current restrictions in place, making shopping as easy and efficient as possible is really important to us and to our customers. Mobile Pay Go helps do just that - it’s quick, contact-free and means fewer queues at our checkouts.”
