The CommBank Albert Hackathon
Qore is a conceptual app and customer rewards system designed for CommBank’s new Albert merchant terminal. It aims to boost exposure of businesses while enriching the shopping experience for customers through relevant nearby offers.
Upon a customer's checkout, Qore identifies categories from items that are scanned and then it matches them with Albert’s geo-location to provide customers with offers that make sense and which are targeted for them. Qore also utilises the valuable 3 - 5 second window that is closely watched when processing card payments, to present the customer with an advertisement that is again relevant to them. The offers that are presented can be from both the current store or any other ones that match the buyer’s needs.
Qore was imagined and prototyped over the 2 day span of the Hackathon, and was credited with an honourable mention for it’s innovation, in particular to the unique advertising concept.
