An additional service for Shop & Qo solution clients!
90% of retail activity still happens in-store, according to the latest (2021) study from SmartTraffik. While covid disrupted consumption habits, foot traffic in physical stores is bouncing back — but with consumers now expecting a more innovative and unique shopping experience.
In a constantly evolving sector, innovation is essential to offer consumers a seamless, unified shopping journey that meets their expectations and satisfies their needs.
Gift cards, paper vouchers, holiday checks, cryptocurrency… today, payment options offered by retailers are limitless. Each brand must offer alternative payment methods to increase traffic and, ultimately, performance.
In response, coQliQo and Global POS have decided to join forces by connecting their respective solutions to equip the Shop & Qo checkout software with the wide range of services offered by Easy2Play!
coQliQo connects retailers to their customers
For nearly 23 years, coQliQo has been working to simplify retailers’ sales systems and offer end customers the best connected experience, regardless of the sales channel — physical or digital.
In recent years, coQliQo has become a key player in retail software publishing thanks to its powerful features and ability to integrate easily with its clients’ information systems, especially within highly heterogeneous franchise networks.
Easy2Play integrates with coQliQo
Our Easy2Play software is a simple and intuitive solution that helps retailers optimize the management of prepaid instruments accepted at checkout and launch an omnichannel gift card program — in-store and on their e-commerce site. As a digital solution, its true added value lies in boosting drive-to-store traffic, stimulating sales, and building customer loyalty.
This new partnership will allow Easy2Play to bring even more services to coQliQo’s solution, including:
- Digitizing the management of prepaid voucher (gift vouchers, meal tickets, holiday checks, etc.). Scanned at checkout, these are instantly recognized and verified by our solution before being sent to issuers, with custom reporting for reimbursement tracking
- Deploying a secure omnichannel gift card program, both in-store and online
- Expanding B2B activity by connecting to major players in the sector (works councils, resellers, incentive programs, multi-brand networks, etc.)
- Enabling the acceptance of other payment methods such as cryptocurrencies
“The partnership with Global POS is part of a long-term strategy. Our native SaaS architecture, based on a rich and comprehensive library of REST APIs, allowed us to develop the Easy2Play connector in record time.”
Philippe THUILLIER, Sales and Marketing Director at coQliQo
“This win-win partnership allows us to leverage exceptional know-how that will bring high-value services to coQliQo’s checkout solution — and help both companies grow their market share.”
Olivier RIQUET, CEO at Global POS
The journey has only just begun for both companies. But it has already caught the attention of a major home appliance retailer. Stay tuned for more!
