Toss's facial recognition payment system is expanding beyond large retail chains to local grocery stores.
On July 27, Toss announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with TogetherS, a company specializing in POS solutions for small and medium-sized grocery stores.
As a result, the FacePay service will be gradually introduced to small and medium-sized grocery stores across the country.
TogetherS holds the largest market share in the domestic retail POS sector, making this the first partnership for Toss in this field. The two companies plan to implement Toss Pay payments at over 5,000 small and medium-sized grocery stores using TogetherS's POS system and will sequentially install Toss Front for FacePay.
Customers will be able to make payments using only facial recognition, even when their hands are full with groceries, without needing a wallet or smartphone. Merchants will also benefit from being able to operate multiple payment methods—including cash, cards, mobile payments, and NFC—through a single device, reducing operational burdens. The two companies plan to gradually expand joint promotions and marketing activities starting with the introduction of FacePay.
A Toss representative stated, "Grocery stores are spaces that customers visit most frequently, making them ideal locations for experiencing the convenience of FacePay in everyday life. We will continue to enhance the payment experience by broadening our partnerships."
