SKUx’s multi-patented SKUPay® technology accelerates merchants’ ability to apply item-level eligibility logic to payment acceptance for a wide range of applications to drive incremental spend at scale, including item-level promotions and acceptance of healthy benefit cards. Promotions that can be targeted for specific UPCs, or list of UPCs, provide merchants and CPGs a whole new set of tools for customer engagement to increase customer loyalty and drive people into stores. For healthy benefits cards, SKUx can dramatically accelerate acceptance with minimal integration resource requirements and significantly reduce the cost and complexity of on-going support.
