Three University of California San Diego stores deploy time saving Amazon Just Walk Out technology
Amazon’s Just Walk Out technology is now available for students, faculty, and staff at University of California San Diego.
Shoppers can enter with their Triton2Go app or a credit card and then skip the checkout line at Roger's Market, Sixth Market, and Seventh Market.
Their choice of payment method - Dining Dollars, Triton Cash or a credit card - is charged for any items taken.
Staff members are no longer required at checkout counters, freeing them to assist customers, restock shelves or perform other customer service related duties. In addition, the team receives real-time information about the most popular items.
UC San Diego is the first location in San Diego to feature Just Walk Out tech.
“Our campus already features time saving technology like self-ordering kiosks and the Triton2Go mobile ordering app,” says Pierre Ouillet, UC San Diego Vice Chancellor and Chief Financial Officer.
“This latest technology eliminates wait times, adding speed and convenience and aligning with our mission to continuously improve the student experience.”
“This is a huge improvement for our students,” says Rosario Salas, Assistant General Manager at Sixth Market.
“At peak times, we serve hundreds of students in the market. This technology gives them the freedom to get in and out quickly, and we will have more time to help shoppers find items or place special orders for items not in stock. With the new market setup, we can also provide a larger selection of products.”
