Transact, a provider of credential and payment solutions for a connected campus, introduced software integrations with Apex Order Pickup Solutions and Panasonic Smart Lockers, which provide automated, contactless order pickup solutions for food service and retail, according to a press release.

Transact also collaborated with Panasonic to develop a closed loop payment integration with Panasonic's smart food locker solution. Higher education campuses that deploy these locker systems offer streamlined food pickup facilitated by a QR or pin code. This contactless order and retrieval process allows students to receive their food without waiting in long lines or interacting with restaurant or dining hall staff.

Transact has developed a similar closed loop payment integration with Apex Order Pickup Solutions.

Transact also integrated with Starship, a mobile technology and autonomous robot platform that allows for green food and goods delivery.

Each of these integrations allow students to use their campus card funds to make purchases through the vendor's system or app.
