7-Eleven’s cashier-free mobile checkouts are available in NYC

7-Eleven

has formally launched its Mobile Checkout feature in New York City after some testing in Dallas.

Locals can use the 7-Eleven app for Android or iOS to scan any product with a barcode and buy it on the spot, no store staff required — the only extra step is scanning a QR code at a “confirmation station” to let the store know that you’re not shoplifting.

It’s not quite as seamless as something like Apple’s old grab-and-go purchasing, but it beats waiting in line to pay for a bag of potato chips.
