The scan‑and‑go platforms market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $7.34 billion in 2025 to $8.88 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing demand for faster checkout experiences, growth of smartphone penetration, rising e-commerce influence on in-store shopping, adoption of barcode scanning technology, expansion of large retail formats.
The scan‑and‑go platforms market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $19.22 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to growing adoption of mobile payment technologies, increasing deployment of IoT-enabled smart carts, rising focus on seamless omnichannel retail experiences, expansion of AI-powered customer analytics, growing need for frictionless store operations. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of mobile scan and go applications, rising deployment of self-checkout kiosks and smart carts, growing integration with loyalty programs and customer analytics, expansion of cloud-based payment processing systems, rising focus on in-store real-time inventory management.
The increasing adoption of contactless payment solutions is expected to propel the growth of the scan‑and‑go platforms market in the coming period. Contactless payment solutions refer to digital payment methods that allow transactions via tap-to-pay cards, smartphones, or wearable devices without handling cash or direct contact. The surge in contactless payment adoption, driven by consumer preference for fast and convenient transactions, is accelerating uptake across retail environments to enhance checkout speed and user experience. Scan-and-go platforms support this trend by enabling customers to scan products and pay digitally, seamlessly integrating with contactless payment solutions while minimizing physical interactions at checkout. For instance, in July 2024, according to the European Central Bank, a Germany-based central bank for the Eurosystem, the number of contactless card payments in the second half of 2023 increased by 16%, reaching 23.2 billion compared to the same period in 2022. Therefore, the growing adoption of contactless payment solutions is propelling the growth of the scan‑and‑go platforms market.
Key companies operating in the scan and go platforms market are focusing on developing innovative solutions, such as mobile self checkout integration with targeted display advertising, to enhance shopper engagement and drive in-store conversions. Mobile self checkout integration with targeted display advertising is a technology that allows shoppers to scan and pay for items using their smartphone while simultaneously displaying personalized ads within the app to influence purchase decisions in real time. For example, in July 2024, Sam's West Inc., a US-based retail media and technology company, launched Scan and Go Display Ads, an advanced retail media solution embedding display advertisements into its Scan and Go mobile app checkout experience, enabling members to scan products while shopping, complete payment, and view relevant ads on the same interface, thereby enhancing discovery and conversion while bypassing traditional checkout lines. This solution leverages first-party membership data to deliver targeted ads that refresh with each scan, measures click-through and sales metrics directly tied to purchases, and provides advertisers with a new point of engagement at the moment of transaction, driving incremental sales and deeper consumer insights compared to standalone self-checkout systems.
In February 2023, Standard Cognition Corporation, a US-based technology company, acquired Skip Inc. for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, Standard Cognition Corporation aims to combine Skip’s self-checkout solutions with its own AI-powered autonomous checkout technology to create an integrated checkout experience for retailers, thereby propelling the adoption of automated retail systems and contributing to enhanced operational efficiency. Skip Inc. is a US-based company that specializes in providing scan and go platforms and mobile self-checkout solutions, supporting seamless and frictionless retail transactions.
