The company maintains a scalable, recurring-revenue model through its combination of Software-as-a-Service, media, and analytics offerings.
Retail media monetization has emerged as a core revenue stream for A2Z, supported by exclusive rights and growing cost-per-thousand-impressions and commission-based advertising sales. The company's business model blends hardware, software, retail media and data services to deliver scalable, recurring revenue across multiple layers of the retail value chain. A2Z's mission centers on transforming routine shopping trips into dynamic experiences that benefit both consumers and retailers by bridging the gap between digital convenience and physical retail environments.
As a global retail technology company, A2Z Cust2Mate focuses on redefining how consumers and retailers interact in physical store environments through its innovative smart cart platform.
