Overview

Convenience & Fuel

Between fuel services, the emergence of self-service and the rising value of prepared foods and quick service restaurant options, the small-format convenience store is becoming much more than a pit stop.

The convenience store is being redefined – and we’re helping you take advantage.

Your stores require solutions that drive loyalty and the shopper experience, whether it’s authorizing payments at the pump or preordering food. And as fuel implementation becomes more critical to industries that used to be independent, your solutions can no longer be siloed. Fortunately, you don’t need to manage multiple systems to address these distinct services and integrate the two parts of business.

From the pump, to the checkout line, to the in-store quick service restaurant, you need a vendor that can seamlessly integrate and upgrade all parts of your on-the-go business.

Solutions

OmniPOS

OmniPOS stands for more than the classic POS. With OmniPOS we offer you the world's leading platform for every retail format and every customer touchpoint, which goes far beyond what traditional POS solutions allow. The open services architecture and powerful suite of applications allow a quick and agile market response, inspire your customers and seamlessly connect all channels.

With OmniPOS, you can rely on an integrated platform that delivers a unique customer experience across all touchpoints, while being open for a wide range of extensions.

Artificial Intelligence for Retail (AIR)

AIR is the cloud-based AI platform of GK Software that offers customized processes for the retail trade. Powerful self-learning algorithms and real-time decisioning enable deep insights into customer behavior, help to open up new business opportunities and increase the added value from the existing business.

AIR's Dynamic Pricing utilizes machine learning to calculate optimal prices in real time, taking into account a wide range of factors. You can define different pricing strategies to achieve your goals and increase sales, revenue or margin targets.

With AIR's personalization module, you can play out personalized recommendations at all touchpoints to engage your customers and present them with the right offers at the right time.

Mobile Merchandise Management

Our Mobile Merchandise Management application enables smooth end-to-end product control and significantly improves the quality and value of the company's inventory data.

Mobile Consumer Assistant

Use your customers' smartphones as a mobile customer loyalty tool and offer them the full range of modern mobile services, from infotainment to personalized coupons and payments. MCA is a feature-rich white-label solution that can also be integrated modularly into Android or iOS applications.

Self-Checkout

With the OmniPOS platform you can seamlessly integrate self-checkouts into your IT landscape and operate them over the same infrastructure as cash registers or scales. All options are open to you. You can directly integrate conventional SCOs from third-party vendors or you can operate self-configured hardware directly with the self-explanatory SCO interface of OmniPOS.

OmniScale

With OmniScale, your scales fit seamlessly and completely into your store IT landscape. OmniScale allows you to use different scales and scale types from multiple manufacturers and use the same data supply and disposal structures as cash registers and other devices in your stores. At the same time, you can use the scales to target your customers with pinpoint loyalty campaigns and promotions, as well as at the point-of-sale and other touchpoints in your OmniChannel environment.

Mobile POS

With the fully integrated Mobile POS, you can reduce queues at peak times or increase the quality of advice in the store. The mobile solution leverages the entire infrastructure of the OmniPOS platform and enables cashiers to process all transactions with a fully client-enabled POS solution anywhere in the store.

Frictionless Checkout

The OmniPOS platform can also help you create unattended stores or pop-up stores. OmniPOS can be used in conjunction with the Mobile Consumer Assistant to implement smartphone-driven capture and payment concepts. The open platform also allows the integration of other data entry options such as cameras or intelligent shelves, and then ensures that the necessary store processes are handled in the background and that these stores are seamlessly integrated into the overall store landscape.

Label & Poster Print

GK/Retail Label & Poster Print covers all processes around the business-critical process of poster and label printing. Price changes made in the head office are executed automatically and are time-controlled in the respective stores. In addition to classic printed labels and posters, digital media are also controlled. In this way, electronic shelf labels from well-known manufacturers can be supplied with the right content at the right time.
