Video: Z creates world-first customer experiences with Infinity

With Infinity providing a single customer view, Z is elevating expectations of the fuel retail experience.

Z Energy is New Zealand’s largest fuel retailer with more than 500 Z and Caltex sites. 

With Infinity, Z is pursuing growth opportunities and delivering award-winning customer experiences, including a world-first innovation – Sharetank, a virtual fuel tank.

Z’s Chief Digital Officer, Mandy Simpson, and Head of Site Systems, Andy Stewart, share how the fuel retailer is digitising its business to deliver the unified experiences its customers expect and how Infinity and Triquestra has helped.

Mandy explains that Z is transforming for a digital future where they can predict what customers are going to want and then deliver the experiences they need, saying: “That is the heart of the digitisation goal, which is producing really amazing experiences for our customers, for our employees, and for everybody who works with us.”

Andy describes how Z’s use of Infinity has evolved from point of sale through to enabling a truly unified experience.

“We're now able to get complete visibility of our customers by virtue of the fact that every transaction that a customer does at a Z site comes through one of the Infinity products, whether that's point of sale or whether that's via our app channel. 

“We're able to use that data now,” adds Andy. “We know when our customers are shopping with us, we know when they're not shopping with us, and we're able to harness that data to enhance our loyalty experience for those people.”

How a unified commerce platform solves retail inventory problems

This post was originally published January 2020 and updated on 15 October 2020

---

Many retailers have launched new contactless delivery and self-serve options but can only access rudimentary sales and inventory positions. That prevents them from offering the ‘buy anywhere, fulfil anywhere’ services that are best for customers and most profitable for them.

Managing inventory is one of the most challenging processes for retailers – no matter their size. It’s also the largest cost. It’s a balancing act to strike the right stock levels and adjust those levels as your business changes. Understocks lead to missed sales and dissatisfied customers, and overstocks tie up your capital and result in markdowns that can hurt your margins. 

Some retailers struggle with the fundamentals of inventory control, such as stock taking, demand forecasting, planning and receipting. And in a world where online and offline channels are blending into a single brand experience, customers expect access to products wherever and whenever they want.

---

Unify your inventory 

To provide the purchasing and fulfilment options you need for frictionless experiences that delight customers and reduce costs, you first need to get tight control of your inventory. 

A unified commerce platform gives you a single, accurate and up-to-date view of inventory so you can be sure that you have the right product at the right place at the right time.

With unified inventory management across all locations, you can make better decisions about what stock to order and how to make it available in your physical, mobile, online stores and call centres. 

 You can react to trends quickly, and forecast demand based on historical data, sales forecasts and seasonal variations. And with the platform’s open architecture and APIs, you’re free to add new features, channels, apps and services that will increase customer satisfaction and benefit your business in many ways:

• Increase sales with ‘endless aisle’ capabilities that let you sell products stocked in any location and have them delivered direct or collected by the customer

• Reduce inventory costs by moving stock to the right location when it’s needed and cutting your overall stock requirements

• Create dark stores for online order fulfilment, turning physical locations into temporary or permanent fulfilment nodes to enable faster delivery and keep retail staff working

• Turn locations on and off for endless aisle fulfilment based on the stock mix and quantities, store closures due to the pandemic or surges in online shopping

• Lower fulfilment costs by delivering direct to the customer using store-to-door, warehouse-to-door, click-and-collect, kerbside pickup or optimised sourcing

• Offer more purchasing and fulfilment options to customers so they can locate items in-store, buy online, collect in-store, reserve online, receive the same day or at a time and location of their choice

• Optimise your product range by matching stock to each store’s location, community and demographics while still giving access to your complete range via endless aisle

• Extend your range across more sales channels such as in-store kiosks, shoppable screens, pop-up stores, concessions and mobile devices.

Why unified commerce is the nirvana of omnichannel

This post was originally published on 3 March 2020 and updated on 21 July 2020

---

We’ve seen a dramatic shift to digital channels during the pandemic. Many retailers had to take a  ‘just get something done’ approach to creating seamless customer experiences that span channels.

Now they’re struggling with omnichannel set-ups that simply link digital and physical systems together, and they don’t have the ability to keep pace with changing consumer behaviours.

But omnichannel should not be the end goal. It’s just one approach to getting a single view of your customers that will help you deliver unified experiences. 

Instead, a unified commerce platform will break down your channel silos and move your retail business toward the holy grail of holistic, real-time, personalised customer experiences spanning in-store, online and everywhere in between.

To help explain why unified commerce is the nirvana of omnichannel, here’s a look at where we are now and where we’re going.

---

Multi-channel

To meet customer expectations for safety and convenience, retailers are giving customers access to new mobile and online channels. Each touchpoint and channel operates independently, with separate people, processes and technologies existing in functional silos.

But when you only add and don’t actually integrate new channels with the rest of your organisation, you create bad service experiences that frustrate internal teams and customers.

Silos mean that your customers have to deal with inconsistencies and gaps, such as incomplete sales histories, different tones of voice or having to start conversations afresh in each channel. These silos inevitably lead to disappointment and frustration, a lack of trust and even a sense that your organisation is incompetent.

---

Omnichannel

With an omnichannel approach, customers can access different channels to interact with your brand, and you finally have a single view of the customer, however, your channels are still operating in functional silos.

That means most attempts to offer unified experiences fall short. 

You could be struggling with legacy technologies that have been customised and are infrequently updated, and then you try to bolt-on new digital solutions that don’t easily integrate. These omnichannel systems are fragile, inefficient and costly to maintain.

And things can easily unravel. Adding new channels, faster fulfilment and new payment options can lead to a torrent of inconsistent and inaccurate data which cannot be shared without significant investments in data integration.

---

Unified commerce 

With a unified commerce retail management system (RMS), you can achieve retail nirvana by creating immersive and frictionless experiences for customers across all channels.

A unified commerce platform gives you a single source of truth for inventory and customer data. With this one view of the customer, and all customer channels and engagement points connected in real-time, you can deliver a personalised and consistent customer experience. 

This capability has been a game changer for our clients.

It eliminates the customer journey pain points and amplifies the ‘wow’ moments. Now you can treat each customer as an individual, all the time – one person with one account, interacting with one brand.  

Unified commerce can benefit your business in many ways:

• It provides a stable backbone by acting as the hub for all your channels, reducing integration and operating costs, while increasing efficiency and accuracy. 

• It’s also your platform for innovating – a springboard for adding new channels and services, giving you the ability to take advantage of new capabilities and deliver results at a speed and scale that unachievable within a traditional omnichannel model.

• It gives you total control over all your inventory and lets you create seamless and personalised purchasing, payment and fulfilment options across ‘endless aisle’ shopping, fast (eg 30-minute) click-and-collect, kerbside pickup, store-to-door, shoppable screens, kiosks and hyper-personalised loyalty offers.

• You can deliver frictionless experiences and let customers access your entire product range from any location, including stores, online, mobile, shoppable screens, pop-ups, stores within stores, virtual showrooms, social channels, call centres and more.

• And our savviest clients are now investing in new customer-facing technologies, like chatbots, mobile apps and AI. Some are pioneering contextual commerce – the ability to seamlessly implement purchase opportunities into everyday activities (such as Shoppable Instagram and Facebook). 

The end result is the ability to deliver the personal, ubiquitous and unified experiences your customers expect, fostering loyalty, driving growth and improving profitability.

How a single view of customer and inventory data translates to happier customers

“A lot of established retailers are struggling with legacy systems and have bolted on solutions for the digital space that don’t easily integrate. The reason unified commerce resonated with me is that it focuses on having one core platform to do the heavy lifting and having a single source of truth to manage the customer data, inventory and order orchestration. Rather than relying on too many systems to push and pull data everywhere.”

This is how Shane Lenton, Cue Clothing’s CIO and number 8 on 2020’s Australia CIO50, described  the Infinity unified commerce platform. Infinity’s single view of inventory and customer has helped Cue launch many inventive, connected and personalised experiences that delight customers, build loyalty, drive growth and improve profitability.    

---

So how does a single source of truth translate to customer satisfaction and new revenue streams?

If your retail management system has been built up organically and relies on complex dependencies, you’ll know how difficult, slow and expensive it can be to integrate with modern technologies and create new customer experiences.

A unified commerce platform can take that pain away. It bypasses the limitations of legacy and omnichannel systems by linking internal channel silos and letting you easily share data and services across all areas.

With one platform, you gain the single source of truth that gives you real-time visibility of your customer, inventory and fulfilment data across all your stores and channels. 

Combine Infinity’s data accessibility with its open platform, integrations and APIs, and you can offer customers the easy purchase, convenient delivery, and stress-free return options they want while recognising and rewarding the shopping they do with you. Here’s how:

One view of stock leads to increased sales

Infinity lets you consolidate your inventory from all locations – warehouse, individual store, on order – and make it available for customers to buy anywhere, at any time by website, app, store or via your call centre. You’ll increase margins while reducing your inventory holding.

Improve profitability by fulfilling orders the way customers want

When your data is unified, you can offer a range of fulfilment options no matter what channel an order comes in from. Click-and-collect, store-to-door delivery, drop shipping and ‘endless aisle’ fulfilment are all possible. You choose what’s best for customers and most profitable for you.

Make ‘buy anywhere, return anywhere’ a reality

With Infinity’s simple and cost effective returns capability, you can manage the entire process including return payment transactions, price validation, inventory re-allocations, notifications and customer record updating. 

To know them is to love them

Whether a staff member or a customer enters the customer’s details into your system or loyalty program in-store or online, that information is captured and stored in one place so you can recognise them consistently wherever they shop with you. Using that data and Infinity’s loyalty capabilities, you’ll know which customers are most profitable and what their preferences are. Store teams can see this information as well to offer personalised service and encourage conversion at point of sale.

Power your retail innovation strategy with APIs

Connecting channels and personalising the shopping experience is vital to meeting consumers’ rising expectations. One major advantage of using a unified commerce platform as your retail management system (RMS), is its open architecture that lets you easily make those connections with APIs.

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) are present in every part of our digital world. Every time you use an app like LinkedIn, make a Skype call or listen to Spotify on your phone, there’s an API in action.

APIs let you add specialised functionality to a website, application, platform or software without having to write all of the back-end code. By using APIs, you can connect tools and expose data in real time, rather than having to replicate or move it. The result is one set of functions that’s available across various systems, plus an easy way to plug in and deploy new services, channels and devices. 

These improvements let you shift your team’s priority from maintenance to innovation. By using APIs to access existing solutions in the market, you are free to focus your development efforts on the front-end. You can be more agile and create a community of third-party apps and systems that work together in an ecosystem. As a result, you’ll reduce integration and maintenance overheads, increase real-time accuracy and enjoy virtually limitless scalability and agility.

---

APIs in action

Here are just some of the ways APIs help you optimise operations and personalise customer experiences:

Retail anywhere, any time

APIs let you easily expose your product catalogues and other eCommerce solutions to give customers many more ways to engage with your brand, including social commerce.

Deliver anywhere, any how

Shipping and delivery APIs let you integrate third party services to automate everything from the sale through to the parcel being delivered to your customer’s address of choice. Think fulfilment options like click-and-collect, store-to-door and drop shipping.

Payment convenience counts

Give consumers the payment options and ‘buy-now, pay later’ services they want. Infinity was the first in the world to integrate with Afterpay at point of sale and supports Adyen, Smartpay, Laybuy, Alipay, WeChat Pay, and Slyp to name a few payment partners.

Voice and visual to boost personalisation

Visual search APIs help customers quickly find the products they want – like Cue Clothing’s Style Finder mobile app. And you can consider using Siri, Alexa and Google Assistant APIs to further tailor the shopping experience and boosts sales.

---

So how do you start making the most of APIs?

Begin by evaluating your company’s value chain. Can you easily integrate and use APIs to access third-party platforms and services to scale your business? Or can you release your own APIs to attract partners and build out your platform? The two options are not mutually exclusive. 

An API-enabled platform like Infinity lets you scale your business quickly by easily adding new apps and services as business requirements change.

We can also help if you’re looking for advice on how to create a strategy and implement an API programme that quickly creates customer and business value.

The end result is the ability to create extraordinary customer experiences that help to capture market opportunities, generate additional revenue and build brand advocacy.

How a unified commerce platform solves retail inventory problems

To provide the purchasing and fulfilment options you need for seamless experiences that delight customers and minimise costs, consider a unified commerce approach to get tight control of your inventory within your retail management system (RMS). 

Managing inventory is a retailer’s biggest challenge – no matter their size. It’s also the biggest cost. It’s a balancing act to strike the right stock levels and easily adjust those levels as your business changes. Understocks lead to missed sales and dissatisfied customers, and overstocks tie up your capital and result in markdowns that can hurt your margins. And in our on-demand world, customers expect access to products wherever and whenever they want.

But many retailers struggle with some of the fundamentals of inventory control, such as stock taking, demand forecasting, planning and receipting. Others launch self-serve channels that can only access rudimentary sales and inventory positions. That prevents them from offering the ‘buy anywhere, fulfil anywhere’ options that are best for customers and most profitable for them.

Unify your inventory 

A unified commerce platform gives you a single, accurate and up-to-date inventory view so you can be sure that you have the right product at the right place at the right time.

With unified inventory management across all locations, you can make better decisions about what stock to order and how to distribute it amongst your warehouses, call centres, and physical, mobile and online stores.

What’s the difference between unified commerce and omnichannel?

There are many terms to describe retail management systems these days. And while they are used interchangeably, there is a difference between ‘omnichannel’ and ‘unified commerce’. Unified commerce is the next progression of what’s come before and simplifies the technology you need to give customers a consistent omnichannel shopping experience.

---

Omnichannel offers options, and limitations 

With an omnichannel approach, you give customers the ability to shop in-store, online, via your app, over the phone, etc. 

But there’s a good chance these systems rely on out-of-date information and old or closed integration technology. Which means you might be connecting new channels to systems that aren’t updated in real time. And you could be duplicating data and finding that interoperability with each new technology is difficult, expensive and slow. 

As a result, many seemingly omnichannel experiences are held together with manual processes and complex integration. You end up with silos across your business which negatively impact your customer because they have to deal with information gaps, fewer fulfilment options, or having to start new conversations in each channel. 

For example, an omnichannel setup might enable data sharing between physical and online stores, but the contact centre is left out. So if a customer has a question about something they like online, they call your contact centre and your rep can’t see the customer’s recent online purchasing history or whether the customer’s nearest store has the item available for collection. 

Internally, staff must duplicate tasks because there’s no single version of data that everyone shares. This day-to-day inefficiency means teams have less time to spend on innovation and giving customers the personalised experiences they expect.

---

Unified commerce simplifies consistent customer experience

Natalie Berg of NBK Retail says we no longer ‘go’ shopping, we just ‘are’ shopping. The only way to give consumers this seamlessness is to move beyond omnichannel to unified commerce.

Unified commerce is a platform. It centralises your customer and inventory data for one version of truth and its open architecture (using APIs) exposes that data to all your channels. 

With this single view of your data, you can move stock, update prices, add loyalty program rewards – whatever you like – across all your channels. The data stays in sync and transactions can be viewed in near real time. So customers get a ‘one brand’ experience: one person with one account, interacting with one unified brand. No hitches, no inconsistencies.

From a business perspective, unified commerce resolves issues inherent with traditional channel integration, and offers many more benefits:

• More accurate information for decision making

• Reduced inventory holdings and increased availability

• Optimised supply chain and order management

• More payment and fulfilment options

• Efficient processes and less manual overhead

• Faster innovation and speed to get new products and services to market

What is unified commerce and why is it so important to retail success?

If you want to be more competitive in today’s retail world, you have to give customers the purchase, payment and fulfilment options they demand across your in-store, online and mobile channels. The best way to expand your offering and improve each customer experience, while lowering costs, is to unify your retail management.

Unified commerce is the term used for a retail software system that connects all your inventory and customer data to all your sales channels. It’s also known as frictionless retail, new retail, headless commerce, digital commerce, boundaryless retail and omnichannel (though we believe unified commerce is the nirvana of omnichannel as we explain in this blog).

According to Gartner, unified commerce is one of the top 10 trends that will impact the future of digital commerce. That’s because it gives consumers consistency across channels and a continuous experience throughout their journey with you.

BRP’s annual POS/Customer Engagement Survey shows that 94% of retailers have indicated that they have or plan to implement a single unified commerce platform within the next three years. And in Australia, there’s a $92 billion opportunity for businesses that are successful in rolling out a strong unified commerce platform. 

---

So what exactly is unified commerce?

Unified commerce is a retail management system (RMS) that unifies all your customer and inventory data on one open, centralised commerce platform that exposes one version of truth to all channels. 

Which means that data stays in sync – across websites, apps, stores, call centres, kiosks, concession stores, wearable devices – and transactions can be viewed in near real time. So you can give each customer the best price and experience, whether they shop with you in-store, at home, or out and about.

With all these customer touch points connected, unified commerce lets you deliver holistic and personalised customer experiences more consistently. And treat each customer as the individual they are – one person with one account, interacting with one unified brand.

A unified commerce platform also helps you and your technology partners innovate quickly, reduce integration and operating costs, maximise margin, and deploy new services – efficiently and profitably.

Here’s how unified commerce helps you retail better

Inventory management

When you’ve got a single view of your inventory, you can move it around your business quickly and react to demand changes fast. You’ll find it’s much easier to manage stock to maximise sales opportunities and reduce holding costs.

Order management (OMS)

Because your inventory is optimised and visible across channels, you can offer a range of fulfilment options like click-and-collect, ship-from-store, endless aisle, split shipments – whatever suits your customers best.

Loyalty and customer management

Capture customer details via any channel. Then analyse their purchase and browsing history to show them you know them with communications, rewards and offers that are timely and relevant. In-store teams can see this information as well to offer personalised service and encourage conversion at point of sale.

Pricing and promotions

Pricing is shared across channels so customers can trust that they’ll pay the same price whether they shop with you in-store, online or in the field. And you can try out different promotions and pricing strategies quickly when an offer succeeds or doesn’t do as well as planned.

New product, service and channel innovation 

Using APIs on an open platform, you can connect third-party services and expose data in real time. Helping you build your competitive advantage and create a world of opportunity to give customers new, faster services and personalised interactions.  

No more silos

When everyone is using the same system and seeing the same data, you’ve got better internal collaboration with fewer roadblocks, and customers are happier because they’re getting the frictionless ‘one brand’ experience they want.
