Recovered Merchandise
The preferred response to a disabled trolley is for the wrongdoer to abandon it, allowing store associates to recover the goods.
Additional Theft Deterrence
Our data shows that once the Purchek® Pushout Theft Prevention System is installed in your stores, pushout attempts can be reduced by up to 80%, effectively addressing repeat offender and organised retail crime (ORC) activity. Experienced thieves recognise our systems and tend to avoid stores where they are installed.
Employee and Shopper Safety
With Gatekeeper Systems' Purchek® technology deterring thieves, your store associates and other shoppers are not required to engage.
Legal Fees
Loss prevention technology systems, such as Purchek®, can reduce your legal fees and claims associated with shoplifting, workers' compensation, and in-store injuries, as well as lower costs related to prosecution, litigation, and court appearances.
Labour & Operational Savings
Purchek® technology can reduce the number of labour hours spent on cycle counting and replenishing inventory lost to theft. Additional labour savings can be achieved in the administrative tasks associated with high levels of pushout theft, such as filing and managing incident reports. The solution can also minimise the need for greeters or security guards near your exits.
Leverage Existing Gatekeeper Systems Investments
If you’ve already invested in Gatekeeper Systems' Trolley Containment Solution, you’ve already begun equipping your store for Purchek® Pushout Prevention Technology. The SmartWheel® devices already installed on your trolleys are the same ones used in the Purchek® Solution.

Stop Pushout Theft
With Gatekeeper Systems’ Purcheck Solution, you can protect your product from theft and protect your employees and shoppers from violence. The non-confrontational solution acts to prevent theft, not just detect it. By disabling wheels on carts that have not met the proper criteria, bad actors are stopped right in their tracks. Merchandise is typically abandoned, and the suspect flees without requiring any interaction with your employees. Disappointing the shoplifter is a bonus.

How Purchek Technology Works
Purchek technology is a fully automated, behaviour-based system that prevents shopping trolleys from leaving a retail store unless authorised at a point of sale (POS). If unauthorised, the trolley locks at the exit, triggering a video event and an audible alarm. This often results in the thief walking away without the product or causing a physical incident.
Our Purchek technology validates the ROI of the system, while providing our retail partners with unique insights into theft behaviour occurring in their stores every day.
The Purchek system is designed with the flexibility to accommodate a variety of retail store formats. It remains invisible to paying customers while stopping thieves in their tracks.
