Company Summary

The BufferBox service leverages innovative self-serve kiosks allowing e-retailers to ship items to customers through specified self-serve kiosks that are conveniently located and where pickup is available 24hrs/day. More importantly, e-retailers are able to gain control over the customer interaction phase of the transaction. Currently, shipping carriers leave the last impression with customers; leaving the e-retailer to blame when problems occur.
