Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for removing a security tag from an article are disclosed herein. A device for removing a security tag includes a housing including an opening positioned to receive the tag and at least a portion of the article. A magnet is supported adjacent the opening to retain a tag body and to release a retainer pin therefrom when the tag is inserted into the opening. A pin retractor is positioned in the housing opposite the magnet to capture the retainer pin and retract it from the tag body. The pin retractor is retracted into a collar to strip the pin from the pin retractor. A release frame is positioned proximate the magnet and movable between a first position wherein the magnet retains the tag body, and a second position wherein the tag body is moved away from the magnet, thereby releasing the tag body from the magnet.

Abstract: An integrated shopping and mobile payment system and method makes in-store checkout flow at a retail store smooth, efficient and intuitive to the customer to thereby improve the customer's experience as well as reducing an amount of time spent at the checkout by both the customer and retail store sales associate. The system and method can reduce long checkout lines during peak period and allow retail store sales associates to spend more time on the sales floor helping customers and increasing sales. A mobile wallet associated with each customer can be used as the mechanism to compute an order, determine and apply offers and loyalty rewards, and give the customer a single click checkout experience at a point-of-sale device in the retail store.
