Innovation
The physical digital labels are each unique and ideal for busy hospitality venues where physical experiences are still a vital part of the appeal to consumers.
“You can name every one of the white labelled stickers for your brand, and specify it as Table 1, 2, 3 and so on if you are a restaurant,” explained Garner.
Self-checkout applications using a customer’s own handheld mobile devices are also possible in fast food or supermarket outlets.
Many shoppers still like to go in-store. Sticky’s offering can cater for this demand, while still linking instantly to inventory or payment systems. This beats queues and allows in-person consumers to link fast to digital services, thereby improving their experience.
The product also enables retailers to maximise their floor space and potential sales.
Startup targeting growth
Based in Manchester, UK, the company was founded by Israel and Garner in 2020.
“Since 2021, we’ve done two rounds of VC funding and we are growing massively, especially in the retail space,” said Israel. “Our aim is to reduce your cost and increase your revenue.”
Under questioning, Garner refuted any copying or privacy concerns by pointing to the unique Sticky.to proprietary offering and the uniquely shaped patented labels themselves, which would be hard to replicate.
“We also have a right to be forgotten button,” he added.
“You can expand the capabilities of our digital sticker as well via add-ons using HTML or JavaScript,” continued Garner. “Developers can easily do this to find more applications and bring different parts of their organisations together at scale.”
