I'd have to pick up on the whole ROI issue and the, you know, what I think we're seeing now is that there is more than one use case for for RFID. Not not just in the store, but in the in the greatest supply chain for retail. So whilst Max has absolutely right costs have come down. Solutions have stabilized in terms of the technical capability, but if a retailer's looking at RO the ROI, they can see, well I don't have to rely on one single use case to get my ROI we might start with one because we you know, there is a learning curve as to how to use the technology. But ultimately over time, there are multiple points where the ROI can can bring value. I think that's something that, you know, we've seen retailers say, well, I wanna start just by tagging up my items in the store and maybe maybe counting them. But then beyond that, there's a vision of how do I track product, how maybe even how do I track product in relation to the consumer and what they actually do from a behavioral standpoint. Yeah. You know, we had a I was talking to a retailer the other day and they were saying, well, we we want to be able to track product from the shop floor into the changing room. Right? Then how does the how does the consumer deal with that? Do they ask for a different size? Do they ask for what color? How many times do they take product in and out of the changing room? And then how many items that they actually take to the changing room do they buy? Right? So there's it's it's an interesting concept that retailers are thinking about data. Yeah. Right? And and how do I use that capture and use that data? To improve the shopping experience and and effectively maximize sales.

Retail security tech that only counts catches quietly erodes shopper trust

Retail security tech that only counts catches quietly erodes shopper trust

AI-enabled security systems can rack up detections yet still erode shopper trust and harm the brand. Mike Mitchell of Telaid says retailers should align deployments to customer expectations, back privacy answers with real controls, involve more departments in planning, test against real shopping behavior, and require human review before any action affecting customers or employees.

  • 01Retail security technology should balance theft detection with maintaining customer trust.
  • 02Overemphasis on detection capabilities can negatively impact the shopper experience.
  • 03Considering customer perception is essential for effective retail security systems.

ShipStation now offers Walmart shipping rates with up to $100 lost-package protection

ShipStation now offers Walmart shipping rates with up to $100 lost-package protection

ShipStation has announced Ship with Walmart. It gives Walmart Marketplace sellers direct access to Walmart-negotiated shipping rates inside the ShipStation platform, plus up to $100 in protection on lost-item claims. Only eligible orders shipped on time are covered by that protection. How much a seller saves depends on its own lanes, so the real work before peak season is comparing rates side by side.

  • 01This matters most to seller-fulfilled Walmart brands shipping U.S. domestic parcels from ShipStation; cross-border volume stays on existing carriers because the launch is domestic only.

Retail tech installs go right the first time when technicians know the why

Retail tech installs go right the first time when technicians know the why

Telaid argues that retail technology installations succeed on the first attempt when technicians understand the purpose and end use of the systems they're deploying, not just the mechanical steps. The company standardizes this understanding through certification programs, pairing new technicians with experienced ones, quality audits with feedback loops, and lifecycle service that extends beyond the initial install.

  • 01Technicians who understand camera aim and sensor height are more likely to catch install errors on site, reducing repeat visits and added disruption.
  • 02Telaid standardizes knowledge transfer across locations by certifying technicians on specific technology and customer requirements, pairing newcomers with experienced installers for their first two or three sites, and maintaining ongoing quality audits with documented lessons learned.
  • 03First-time install success is supported by pre-site coordination like materials, permits, and pre-configuration, plus having the right team so trades don’t block each other.
