C-store retailer 7-Eleven (Irving, Teas) is testing a cashierless store concept that uses technology to monitor inventory, track purchases and facilitate payments, according to Tech Crunch. The 700-square-foot store is currently being beta-tested by 7-Eleven employees at its Irving headquarters.

“Ultimately, our goal is to exceed consumers’ expectations for faster, easier transactions and a seamless shopping experience,” says Mani Suri, 7-Eleven SVP and CIO. “Introducing new store technology to 7-Eleven employees first has proven to be a very productive way to test and learn before launching to a wider audience.”

Shoppers use a mobile app to check in, pay for items – ranging from snacks to over-the-counter drugs – and review receipts, similar to Amazon’s Go concept.
