Shoppers can interact on chat and on video with the store, scan and short-list products, negotiate, pay, and have the item shipped, all as a contactless experience. Shoppers have the flexibility to pursue a part of the experience virtually and conclude the rest by visiting the store.
ReCast Platform aggregates all stores and brands across categories that offer shoppers Live Commerce capability. Shoppers can scan, apply filters and intelligently narrow down their search to a set of stores. They can then, either video call the stores immediately or schedule a call, at a time convenient to them.
Any great deal struck by a shopper is an exercise in discovery. ReCast Platform with its real-time promotion feature, offers exciting opportunities to the shopper to maximise the value of her shopping.
Shoppers that choose to use the platform to shortlist, but prefer to visit the store to conclude the purchase, can benefit from MallStreet’s “Decide and Depart” feature. Bill Presentment and Payment, and Product Delivery all become contactless.
Stores can enhance the footfalls they receive with “virtual footfalls” from ReCast’s Live Commerce Platform, leading to higher sales and more customers. Over time, virtual footfall can exceed in-store footfall many times over.
With the introduction of ReCast's Live Commerce, a store ceases to be hyper local. Its reach, both in terms of attracting shoppers afar, as well as establishing identity beyond its locale, increases dramatically.
The “real-time deals and promotions” is a unique feature of ReCast Platform that enables the store to introduce, modify and conclude promotions in real time, leading to higher inventory turnover and improved cash flows.
Adoption of the ReCast Platform is a small step for a store but a giant step towards its digital enablement. It can pave the way for the store’s transformation, from a local entity into a boundaryless business.
