Decathlon Deutschland deploys MishiPay mobile technology

Decathlon is rolling out MishiPay’s mobile self-checkout solution across its 81 German stores.

The technology is now live in stores in Berlin (Berlin Hauptbahnhof), Munich (Munich Connect), Cologne (Marsdorf), Schwetzingen and Plochingen, with more locations being added every week. 

Customers can scan and pay for items using their smartphone, automatically disabling the RFID security tag to leave them free to exit the store.

Decathlon Deutschland’s Leader of Store Digitalisation, Stefan Hertkorn, says: “We are always looking for innovative ways to improve the in-store experience for our customers, and we have found that they are really enjoying using the MishiPay app.”

“What’s more, the solution has clear customer benefits in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, enabling shoppers to use their own device for the entire shopping journey instead of needing to touch store hardware, and eliminating the need to wait at a checkout.”

Going Dutch

Decathlon has also deployed MishiPay’s solution across its stores in the Netherlands. Further details on that here.

Other retailers that have worked with MishiPay include MediaMarktSaturn and PicWicToys.
