ALVARA presents Logistic App at GS1 CashCon on January 24/25, 2018
With the theme "Cash at the Pulse of Time," this year's CashCon 2018 in Cologne focuses on the current trends and innovations of the still most important means of payment in Germany. The conference is organized by GS1 Germany GmbH and the EHI Retail Institute. ALVARA introduces an innovation as part of the accompanying exhibition of the event: the ALVARA Logistic App. This creates added value for all participants in the cash cycle, from retail to cash logistics providers to financial institutions.
Even during the tour of the cash logistics provider, for the first time, tour data such as the number of safebags, pickup time, driver ID, and digital receipts are available in the Logistic App for further processing and evaluation. Accounting and auditing thus gain access to all track & trace data faster and more efficiently. The handling of devices in the daily work of cash carriers is noticeably improved. Instead of two devices (phone and scanner), only one device is necessary on the tour. In addition, participants benefit from increased speed of the scanning process and the ability to confirm the cash handover digitally.
During the pilot introduction at KÖTTER Geld- & Wertdienste SE & Co. KG, the Logistic App was rolled out for the Duisburg location and in the cash centers in Dortmund and Cologne and has since proven itself positively. In 2018, there are two new extension modules for the Android-based tour scanner technology for driver authentication and one-time code generation.
