Calculation Assumptions
- 87% average theft reduction — Based on SmartCartLock active store field data after client-ID activation.
- $35 per cart — Average system cost including kiosk leasing, tags, and cloud setup in Year 1.
- Retrieval and municipal fines eliminated — Because carts are contained at the store corral, retrieval fees and municipal impound fines drop to zero.
