Now, the say they've worked out all the kinks and that the app is user-friendly. Walmart initially tested a version of the technology back in 2012, but the company says it failed because customers found it too confusing. Plus, they've been letting Sam's Club customers use the app for a while now. Walmart's Scan & Go can already be used in stores in the southern United States, including Texas, Florida, South Dakota, Arkansas, Georgia, and Kentucky. Then you simply show the receipt on your phone to an employee on the way out to show that you've paid. At the end of your shopping trip, you have the option to then physically pay at a self-checkout register (but skip all the scanning), or you can even register a credit card with the app so you can pay right from your phone. You simply scan the barcode of each item on your phone or with a handheld device provided by the store as you shop. Customers are able to scan and pay for their items, all from their smartphone or other handheld device. Now Walmart is testing a new appthat eliminates checkout lanes, registers and cashiers at some brick-and-mortar stores. Of course you could shop online, but sometimes you just want to try on that dress first to see how it looks or pick out the ripest-looking apple. Arguably the worst part of shopping is waiting in long checkout lines.
