Customers download the Amazon Go app on their mobile device and scan an app upon entering the Amazon go store. The staff will guide customers at the gate. They then proceed to shop, but dont have to check out when exiting.

Instead, the store uses cameras and sensors on shelves, as well as a computer vision system, to scan the items consumers purchase and automatically charge them to the shoppers Amazon accounts. It is undoubtedly incredible shopping experience for customers with its innovative and self-serviced high technology.  Maybe the technology of Amazon Go cannot copy, but this new retail concept ---Omni-channel Retailing can apply to the world.

Whats Omni-channel Retailing?

Omni-channel Retailing Concept


According the internet, Omni-channel Retailing is a fully-integrated approach to commerce that provides shoppers a unified experience across online and offline channels. True omni-channel shopping extends from real stores to mobile-browsing, ecommerce marketplaces, onsite storefronts, social media, etc.

Take back Amazon as an example. Started as a mature e-commerce platform, Amazon Membership has its privilege to launch the takeaway delivery service. By acquiring Whole Food to promote Amazon Go and spreading Treasure Truck for mobile sales service, Amazon takes these offline initiatives to drive consumers' word-of-mouth effect, attracting more people to join Prime Membership, to achieve the Online Merge Offline (omni-channel) sales.

In China, the Omni-channel Retailing is also in a booming stage, easily accepted by Chinese customers, like Meituan, the largest takeaway food ordering and delivery platform. Many-ecommerce companies, like Tmall, Jingdong, and so on, also promote their self-service retail stores to brick-and-mortar locations.
