It was chosen as the winner in the “Creating Inclusive Digital Opportunities” category of the awards, hosted by the Asia-Pacific Council for Trade Facilitation and Electronic Business at the Taipei World Trade Center on Sept. 13.

The POS system includes a barcode scanner, credit card reader and camera for a streamlined customer service experience, according to the company. It has been piloted at major Aritaum stores in Seoul starting in May, and will soon be used in stores nationwide.
