Text 3A9-I 

   Amazon said Monday it will begin selling the cashierless checkout technology that powers its Go stores to other retailers. The “Just Walk Out” technology enables shoppers to “take what they want and leave” without the need to stop and stand in a checkout line. Cameras and other sensors through the store monitor which items shoppers take with them and charge them automatically when they leave.

   Amazon told CNBC it has already inked several deals with retailers interested in bringing the cashierless technology to their stores. An Amazon spokesperson declined to comment on which companies plan to use the technology or how much Amazon is charging them to use it. Amazon said it takes a few weeks for it to install the cashierless technology in retailers’ stores, depending on whether it’s being implemented in a new or existing store. For existing stores, Amazon said it will “work with retailer to install the technology while minimizing impact on current operations.”

   Unlike at Amazon Go stores, where users scan the Go app on a turnstile when they enter, shoppers scan their credit card on the turnstile at a store with the Just Walk Out technology. If shoppers need a receipt, they can visit a kiosk at the store and enter their email address, Amazon said. A receipt will be automatically sent to their email address the next time they visit any store with the cashierless technology.

   Amazon can tailor marketing and gain valuable insights into customer purchasing habits by tracking activity at its Go stores. However, Amazon said it won’t collect any other user data beyond a shopper’s email in order to send receipts. “Shoppers can think of this as similar to typical security camera footage,” Amazon added.

   The move comes as Amazon continues to build out its network of 25 Go stores across the country. Last month, Amazon launched its first, full-size, cashierless supermarket, called Go Grocery, not far from its Seattle headquarters. CNBC previously reported Amazon is considering bringing the technology to airport shops and movie theaters.

   Amazon said its Go stores will begin acccaepting cash last year after the company came under fire for discriminating against the unbanked. Amazon told CNBC it will be up to retailers to decide whether they want to accept cash at stores that license the company’s Just Walk Out technology. Some states, like New Jersey, have new laws banning stores that don’t accept cash.

Comentários

• Amazon said it takes a few weeks for it to install the cashierless technology in retailers’ stores, depending on whether it’s being implemented in a new or existing store. For existing stores, Amazon said it will “work with retailer to install the technology while minimizing impact on current operations.”

• A) Amazon has invented and already started selling its cashierlesss checkout technology to other stores. Errado, pois o texto diz que a tecnologia começará a ser vendida na segunda-feira. Veja: Amazon said Monday it will begin selling the cashierless checkout technology that powers its Go stores to other retailers.

  B) With Amazon’s new technology, customers can take whatever they want without the need to stand in a checkout line or pay for the items. Errado. Os clientes não precisarão ficar numa fila (certo), mas sair sem pagar? De toda forma, isso não foi dito no texto rsrs

  C) There are some other stores interested in the “Just Walk Out” technology, but Amazon doesn’t know which companies plan to use it. Errado. O texto fala que um porta-voz da Amazon se recusou a comentar sobre quais companhias estão planejando em usar a Just Walk Out. Veja: An Amazon spokesperson declined to comment on which companies plan to use the technology or how much Amazon is charging them to use it.

  D) (GABARITO) The time it will take to implement this new technology in retailers’ stores depends on whether this store is new or is already open to the public. Certo. O texto trás uma diferenciação do tempo necessário para instalar a tecnologia em lojas novas ou já existentes. Veja: Amazon said it takes a few weeks for it to install the cashierless technology in retailers’ stores, depending on whether it’s being implemented in a new or existing store. Apesar de não estar escrito expressamente no texto "open to the public", o examinador esperou de nós essa interpretação (o que eu acho que deixa o item um pouquinho perigoso, mas tranquilo de acertar por eliminação).

  E) Amazon is not worried if the store that wants this cashierless technology installed will have great impacts on current operations. Errado. A Amazon expressa sua preocupação de que a instalação da tecnologia ocorra ao passo que sejam minimizados os impactos nas operações. Veja: For existing stores, Amazon said it will “work with retailer to install the technology while minimizing impact on current operations.”

An Amazon spokesperson declined to comment on which companies plan to use the technology or how much Amazon is charging them to use it. = A Amazon disse à CNBC que já fechou vários acordos com varejistas interessados em levar a tecnologia sem caixa para suas lojas.
