Our time is valuable. We are all tired of waiting in line.

Zippin’s technology is being used by retailers on four continents to power checkout-free experiences in a wide variety of venues such as stadiums, offices, airports and train stations, convenience stores, hotels, convention centers and residential buildings.

This new round brings Zippin’s total funding to more than $45 million. This round comes on the heels of significant progress we’ve made in recent months, including signing numerous new accounts, launching multiple new public checkout-free stores, and further solidifying their leading technology within the future of retail.
