EcoSlips Launch | Dubai Paperless Strategy
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
EcoSlips to disrupt
the retail industry with eco-friendly transaction slips.
Centurion, SA - EcoSlips, an IT solution provider from South Africa is launching a new disruptive service to forever get rid of paper based transaction slips.
Retailers are now able to link their point-of-sale systems to EcoSlips and send transaction slips digitally from any paypoint to consumer cell phones.
Paper slip waste is
reduced and a new advertising platform that hasn't existed
before provides new opportunities in the retail sector.
HOW IT WORKS
Consumers may download the application to their cell phone and register free of charge.
The cashier scans or enters the customer's unique pin number and a digital receipt is forwarded to their cell phone within seconds.
Transaction slips
are stored in the cloud from where it can be downloaded,
verified, forwarded or printed at any time, from any
location.
BENEFITS TO CONSUMERS
Transaction slips do not get lost and a printer friendly report with all transactions for a selected time frame can be downloaded in seconds.
Consumers may use it for tax purposes, corporate expense claims, medical- and warranty claims.
Transaction slips can also be forwarded directly from the retailer or filling station to the user's office for corporate expense claims. Users do not even need a cell phone to request their digital receipts from a paypoint.
The system saves hours of manual labour, since transactions are already scanned and summarised in digital format.
Customer identities remain protected and no spam can be sent to any cell phone as is the case with SMS or email powered systems. Messages do not get lost in spam filters because they are sent directly to the user's cell phone.
BENEFITS TO POINT-OF-SALE VENDORS
Point of sale vendors that strive to be at the forefront of
development can provide a value-added service to their
clients at no additional cost. Providing an eco-friendly
service immediately gives them an advantage over competitors
and they receive free advertising exposure in the process.
Free software is provided to link any windows based POS system without backend programming to EcoSlips.
BENEFITS TO
RETAILERS
Ecoslips provides a powerful advertising
platform that allows retailers to focus on consumers in their
immediate geographic location. They can save considerable amounts
in advertising cost and pay only for prospective customers
that live in the vicinity of the store.
Complaints and compliments can be sent directly to the
retail manager from the customer's cell phone and frustrations caused by waiting in line to speak to a call centre
agent are completely eliminated. Service levels can improve
significantly when complaints are handled in a timely
fashion by the retailer.
An independent verification service reduces fraud and
retailers can verify any transaction independently by
scanning or entering the customer's unique pin or phone
number.
According to Henco Schoeman, founder of EcoSlips, "consumers may use the service free of charge. Retailers can significantly reduce paper slip waste, save on printing costs and early adopters may secure an exclusive opportunity to advertise in their geographic area. It is a win-win solution for retailers and consumers".
EcoSlips is currently in negotiation with various players in the retailing and communication industries to implement the service.
Retailers are welcome to contact EcoSlips through their website to link their point of sale systems.
