The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.This is because labor shortages in the retail and food-service industries have increased demand for labor-saving store operations and more efficient checkout processes. In addition, the Company determined that linking the service with “stera terminal standard,” which has already been introduced at a broad range of merchants, would make it possible to bring face recognition payments to more stores.
