HP Inc. is expanding its Engage portfolio with the HP Engage Go 10 and the HP Engage Flex Mini to drive personalized secure consumer experiences.

The technology aims to help retailers create experience consumers now expect — secure, personal and convenient given the shopping and engagement habits consumers have adopted during the year of COVID-19, according to a press release.

"As consumer behaviors and shopping habits continue to evolve, businesses need to remain laser-focused on connecting with consumers in new and exciting ways," Cory McElroy, vice president and general manager, retail solutions, HP Inc., said in the release. "The new HP Engage Go 10 and HP Engage Flex Mini reflects HP's commitment to delivering technology solutions to retailers and hospitality operators that combine sleek designs, expanded capabilities, and the reliability and security needed to run a wide range of operations throughout their business — whether fixed in store or mobile for curbside pickups."

HP is collaborating with Ingenico, a Worldline brand and payments leader, to integrate payment capabilities into HP Engage products.

"To keep with evolving consumer expectations, merchants need to be flexible with where they can provide assistance and accept payment – whether at the counter, in the aisle, at the curb or anywhere else they interact with the customer — to provide a superior customer experience," Skip Hinshaw, head of customer engagement, North America for Ingenico, a Worldline brand, said in the release. "Together with HP, we're ensuring that their customers are able to foster a strong customer experience that is not only quick and efficient, but also helps drive revenue and stronger loyalty."

The HP Engage Go and Engage Flex are powered by 11th gen Intel Core™ i5 processors. The HP Engage Go 10" is a tablet-based convertible solution, that allows sales associates to easily transition between fixed and mobile operations. The option to integrate the Ingenico Moby 5500M payment device into the tablet allows businesses to accept a variety of electronic payment methods, no matter where the customer is located, inside or outside the store.

The HP Engage Flex Mini is the next generation of the HP MP9, which provides retailers with the ability to drive a wide range of operations from a compact device that fits almost anywhere. The flexibility of the design and increased performance enables retailers to maximize valuable real-estate, as well as operations. Businesses can now drive both front-of-store and back-of-house operations, including point-of-sale, digital signage, surveillance systems as well as edge computing workflows.
