Nowadays, shopping at huge malls is a daily activity in the cities. We can observe large lines at shoppings malls on holidays and weekends. The rush is even more during the festival time, since there will be many offers which attract the people. After completion of shopping, a person must go to the cashier for the billing process. The cashier prepares the bill using the bar code reader that could consume a lot of time and leads to long queues at the counters. Smart Cart helps us to overcome this issue. It uses RFID reader and tags for scanning the products and sends a payment link to the customer’s mobile. With the help of this cart, the customer can directly pay the bill with the received payment link and leave the shop with the products he/she has bought after payment verification. This smart cart removes the traditional way of scanning the products by the barcode scanners at the bill counters. And can directly pay the bill without waiting in the queue. With this system the customer can observe the total amount on the LCD screen after adding every item. By seeing the prices he can shop accordingly with the available amount. Since the complete process is done by the machine there will not be any errors. By this smart cart, there will be high security, speed and even the cost is low.It can also replace human labour.
