Tiffany & Co brings luxury vending to UK
By Retail Technology | Tuesday October 9 2018
High-end jeweller Tiffany & Co has launched the first ever luxury vending machine in the UK
Tiffany’s Covent Garden, London boutique now features a fragrance kiosk from which customers can now – thanks to the introduction of Worldline’s VALINA – purchase luxury goods through any form of payment.
It is the first UK unattended VALINA payment terminal - the world’s first all-in-one Android-based payment terminal for contactless, chip and mag stripe transactions.
The new flagship outlet opened in early July, offering an innovative retail experience, complete with contemporary and unique design features to encourage creative interaction and play.
Extra mile
The boutique features Tiffany Blue wooden crates displaying whimsical accessories, a #MakeItTiffany personalisation bar, and the one-of-a-kind Tiffany fragrance vending machine.
Vincent Roland, MD of Worldline’s Merchant Services said: “We’re excited to partner with such an established luxury brand that goes the extra mile for its customers’ experience. Our VALINA at Tiffany & Co London is the first ever self-service full touch Android payment terminal at the UK. In the future we aim to extend this concept into other high value retail environments with Worldline being the leader for self-service payment terminals.”
