About This Episode

Self-checkout kiosks often get a bad rap because they’re machines performing a job that’s traditionally been done by a human employee. NCR Corporation is an expert in self-checkout, having provided electronics and point-of-sale terminals for retail locations for nearly 40 years. This week, Jeff Kahler sits down with NCR’s Marc Haberkorn and Amit Acharya to set the record straight and dive into the real reasons self-checkout is so successful. In this interview: new technology, theft, and what’s coming to a store near you!
