iStock Analyst reports.

The proprietary software can easily be integrated into point-of-sale terminals and platforms ranging from independent convenience stores to multi-lane retailers.

According to Market Watch, the company said it has secured its first retail chain client for this solution, and intends to extend the service to thousands of existing retail locations currently using SelectCore's point-of-sale technology and Verifone terminals.

"This announcement demonstrates the innovative ways that SelectCore continues to monetise its existing retail and terminal network with higher-margin applications,” commented Keith McKenzie, CEO of SelectCore.

Health Tech Zone quotes Dan Devolder, director of IT at SelectCore, as saying: "We continue to develop our point-of-sale platform to adapt to market needs.

"This is one more way we are creating technology that provides value and efficiency for our retail partners, while opening up the door to attract new clients."

In times of stricter rules and enforcement, SelectCore's software quickly and accurately provides age verification at the point of sale in real-time to ensure compliance relating to the purchase of age-restricted products such as tobacco or alcohol.
