Product / UI Designer - Leading Edge Retail Tech Startup!

MishiPay - London, UK

Competitive salary plus bonus and stock options

About Mishipay:

We bring the best of the online shopping experience into physical stores with our Scan, Pay and Go journey. This gives the best of both worlds to the shops and shoppers. 

Our technology allows in-store shoppers to use their phone to scan the barcode of any item in the store, receive enriched product information, pay directly in the app and simply walk out once payment is complete. For RFID enabled retailers, the act of paying automatically deactivates the security on each purchased item. For non-RFID enabled retailers, we use our Staff Dashboard powered by our risk engine for verification, which ensures security against theft.

We work with some of the world’s largest retailers including names like Decathlon, Picwic Toys and Relay.
