One of the options is more eye-catching: pick up at the counter or clerk catering? Because it is no one's self-help ordering, how does the clerk know which customers ordered which meals and where did they sit? It sounds complicated, but it is a simple application of smart hardware technology.

When the customer places an order, they will bring the linked RFID card associated with the order to their table. When the meal in the order is ready, the McDonald's staff will find the ordering customer through the RFID card and deliver the meal to them. These intelligent self-service meal terminals not only reduce labor costs but also reduce the error rate. In the peak of people flow, the speed of receiving meals can be accelerated.

In addition to clever devices, McDonald's also launched its own mobile software application " I McDonald's" applet, which has about 200,000 visits per day. On this basis, there are also a large number of new users, The average user stays for 30 seconds. And small programs regularly push coupons to consumers, giving consumers a reason to go back to stores.

The store connects the automatic points and exchanges of self-service meal ordering machine and APP and also becomes marketing portals for store users to promote.

Behind each purchase record of the user, it forms a unique portrait. Are you sweets or meat eaters? Which snacks and staples are more interested in? These small details are derived from the refined user tag identification technology behind the McDonald's applet.

Feng Lian, vice president of digitization business at McDonald's China, said that each customer opened the homepage of the I McDonald's, and the content presented may not be the same. "Based on the existing data, we will guess the customer's favorite service and will prioritize the corresponding entrance."
