Through the partnership, shopreme's self-checkout technologies will be integrated by Nexi into its merchant offerings. With this move, Nexi and shopreme are demonstrating their joint commitment to revolutionizing in-store payments and ushering in a new era of efficiency, convenience, and innovation for both European consumers and merchants.

Consumer preferences are shifting toward more convenient and creative purchasing experiences as Europe moves away from cash purchases and toward digital ones. This is leading to an increase in demand for self-service solutions in a variety of retail sectors, such as food, fashion, home design, travel retail, and beauty/wellness. Examples of these solutions include self-checkout alternatives and mobile checkout technology. Additionally, in order to maximize cost efficiency in terms of shop space, retailers are constantly developing and investigating new store layouts in order to expand reach and customer convenience.

Nexi will incorporate shopreme's cutting-edge self-checkout technology into its merchant offerings as part of the strategic relationship. Shopreme's mobile self-checkout and kiosk solutions will benefit from Nexi's seamless and fully integrated in-store payment experience thanks to its integration of secure payment technologies. With the help of these connections, retailers will be able to provide customers with smooth and effective self-checkout experiences, cutting down on lines and wait times and freeing up employees to focus on more intricate and fulfilling interactions with customers.

According to Roberto Catanzaro, Chief Business Officer of Merchant Solutions at Nexi Group, "We strongly believe in digital payments as enablers of engaging, frictionless, and efficient customer journeys, and we are fully committed to supporting merchants in innovating store formats and shopping experiences.""A crucial step in this process is combining shopreme's state-of-the-art checkout systems with Nexi's digital payment acceptance capabilities. We will keep offering our clients highly specialized skills, expertise, and support in addition to top-notch solutions that boost productivity and income.

"At shopreme, we are dedicated to delivering the best and most seamless shopping experience," said Nico Müller, Chief Commercial Officer. Since this includes every step of the client journey, a smooth payment process is crucial. We have discovered a great partner in Nexi who has a wealth of experience negotiating the intricacies of the European payments industry.

In 2024, the self-service options made possible by the collaboration between Nexi and Shopreme will gradually go live. Germany, Austria, and Switzerland will be the first countries in which Nexi's major markets are deployed, followed by Italy and the Nordic region.
