Worldline : Antenor and Selfly Store team up to bring advanced, innovative grab and go machines with seamless contactless payments

Selfly Store's intelligent vending machines provide hotels, offices and various venues with a cost-effective and autonomous solution for offering meals and snacks. The vending machines are fully digitised and come in three distinct models designed for different storage needs: Selfly Ambient for room temperature items, Selfly Fridge for refrigerated goods, and Selfly Freezer for frozen products.

Crafted by payment expert Antenor on Worldline's full payment offer, the solution incorporates a series of unattended terminals, Worldline's omni-channel acceptance platform and Worldline's international acquiring solution. This flexible solution allows Selfly Store to deploy internationally with minimal efforts, providing access to sophisticated real-time reporting platform and unparalleled visibility into revenues and allowing efficient monitoring of each transaction and all associated payouts.

This innovative solution combining Antenor's latest payment technology with Worldline's comprehensive services, not only makes grab-and-go shopping easy and convenient for consumers but also provides merchants with a cost-efficient system that can boost their revenues. By leveraging data-driven insights around sales patterns, consumer preferences, inventory optimisation, dynamic pricing, expiry date management, and more, merchants can optimise their operations and maximise profitability

For vending environments requiring a closed-loop payment system, the Antenor-Worldline's solution has enablers to accommodate private cards linked to online wallets. The built-in card-tokenisation feature also enables Selfly Store to establish loyalty programmes and implement "blacklisting" functionality.

Antenor's 30-year partnership with Worldline, ensures a robust and reliable solution for smart vending environments. This long-standing collaboration guarantees that the technology supporting Selfly Store's intelligent vending machines is both advanced and dependable, meeting the highest standards of the industry.
