How RFID systems at the point of sale can boost your business profitability

Aug 9, 2025

In an increasingly demanding marketplace, inventory management, supply chain optimization and customer experience have become major “pain points” for retailers and large industries alike. Lack of real-time visibility and operational errors are barriers that limit growth, cause lost sales and frustrate customers.

But what if we told you there was a solution? RFID technology emerges as the answer, enabling your business to overcome these challenges. With unprecedented visibility and improved operational efficiency, RFID systems not only digitize your processes, but also prepare you for the demands of an omnichannel marketplace. At Myruns, we specialize in implementing these advanced solutions, optimizing every aspect of your business, from point of sale to intralogistics.

What is RFID technology and why is it the future of retail?

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) uses electromagnetic waves to automatically identify and track tagged products. Unlike traditional barcodes, RFID systems allow simultaneous reading of multiple items without the need for direct contact or line-of-sight.

In the current context of the Spanish retail market, where the market has experienced growth, the implementation of RFID technology becomes a crucial competitive advantage for retailers seeking to differentiate themselves.

Advantages of RFID point-of-sale

1. Acceleration of the collection process

The RFID point-of-sale revolutionize the checkout experience by allowing multiple items to be scanned simultaneously. Customers can check-in and pay for all the products in their basket without having to pull them out and scan them one by one, significantly reducing wait times.

Measurable impact:

  • 40-60% reduction in checkout time
  • Increased customer satisfaction
  • Increased case rotation

2. Intelligent loss prevention; advanced predictive security

The RFID systems of 2025 include advanced security capabilities that go beyond simple detection. They provide real-time behavioral analysis and predictive alerts that prevent losses before they occur.

3. Real-time inventory control with 99% accuracy.

One of the most significant advantages is the automatic updating of stock after each sale. The system instantly synchronizes inventory, providing full visibility on product availability and preventing stock-outs.

Operational benefits:

  • Inventory accuracy greater than 99%.
  • 30% reduction in losses due to stockouts
  • Automated inventory audits

4. Drastic reduction of human errors

Integrated RFID systems minimize manual intervention, eliminating scanning errors and ensuring more efficient processes. Automation significantly reduces discrepancies between physical and digital inventory.

5. Seamless integration with ERP and POS systems

Real-time synchronization with enterprise management systems enables complete data centralization. RFID POS integrates seamlessly with existing platforms, facilitating omnichannel management.

6. Automatic detection and loss prevention

RFID systems automatically detect items that are not tagged correctly, providing greater control and security. This capability is crucial for retailers facing shrinkage challenges.

7. Facilitating the omnichannel experience

RFID makes it possible to check from the website or app whether a product is available in store or warehouse and in which specific area it is located. This seamless connectivity between physical and digital channels is essential in modern retail.

Global and local RFID retail success stories

The effectiveness of RFID technology in retail has been demonstrated through numerous successful global and regional implementations.

  • Zara: has been a pioneer in the implementation of RFID, integrating it in all its stores to improve inventory management and ensure rapid product replenishment. This has enabled the brand to maintain high stock availability and respond quickly to market trends.
