ARC (Asset Recharge Center) is an enterprise device management platform that combines intelligent, self-service smart locker kiosks with cloud-based software to secure, charge, track, and optimize the handheld devices powering frontline workforces across retail, logistics, grocery, airline, and warehouse environments.
Perfect for
ARC is best suited for large enterprise organizations with frontline workforces that depend on shared handheld devices to perform daily operations. The platform delivers the greatest value in environments where device shrink, lost productivity, and inefficient device distribution create significant operational costs.
- Retail chains and big-box retailers managing hundreds of handheld scanners and devices across multiple store locations
- Warehouse and distribution center operators needing to ensure device availability and accountability across shifts
- Grocery chains looking to reduce device loss and streamline device checkout for store associates
- 3PL and logistics providers, such as fulfillment centers, that rely on scanners and handhelds for picking, packing, and shipping operations
- Airlines managing shared devices across gate agents, ground crews, and operations teams
- Parcel services, manufacturing facilities, and healthcare organizations with large fleets of employee-shared technology
Key strengths
Proven, measurable ROI with documented results including 93-95% reduction in device shrink and $40,320+ in annual direct cash savings per location
Purpose-built platform (not a generic locker with added tech) supporting multiple device types and brands like Zebra, Honeywell, Apple, and Verifone in a single kiosk
Trusted by major enterprise brands including Sam's Club, Walmart Canada, lululemon, Gap Inc., DHL, and ShipBob, with over 130 million user transactions processed
Intelligent charging logic that automatically releases the most-charged device and flags broken ports or failing batteries before they disrupt shifts
Comprehensive cloud-based reporting dashboard with real-time visibility into device status, usage patterns, peak-hour demand, and unreturned device alerts
Considerations
Focused exclusively on physical device management hardware and software, so organizations without large fleets of shared handheld devices will see limited value
Requires physical installation of locker kiosks on-site, which involves hardware procurement and space allocation in facilities
Primarily serves North American enterprise customers, with no mention of international availability beyond Canada
No publicly listed pricing, suggesting a custom enterprise sales process that may not be accessible for smaller organizations

About ARC by ChargeItSpot
ARC, developed by ChargeItSpot, is a purpose-built enterprise device management platform that addresses a costly operational blind spot for organizations relying on handheld technology to power their frontline workforce. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the company originally pioneered secure, self-service phone charging kiosks for public spaces before pivoting its patented technology to solve the persistent challenge of managing shared employee devices. In 2021, ARC launched as a centralized device management system combining intelligent locker-based kiosks with a cloud-based management platform, and the company has since facilitated more than 130 million user transactions across major enterprise deployments.
The ARC platform provides 1:1 device accountability through self-service touchscreen kiosks with expandable modular locker banks. The system intelligently distributes the most-charged device to each associate, flags damaged or unreturned devices, and delivers real-time visibility into device health, availability, and utilization through a comprehensive client portal. ARC works with all major device brands including Zebra, Honeywell, Apple, and Verifone, and supports multiple device types in a single kiosk, including phones, scanners, and tablets. The platform integrates with company logins, employee badges, mobile device management tools, and business systems like payroll, ticketing, and task tracking.
ARC serves some of the world's largest and most recognized companies, including Sam's Club, lululemon, Walmart Canada, Gap Inc., DHL, and ShipBob. Deployments have demonstrated nearly a 95% reduction in device shrink, an 84% reduction in manager time spent on device administration, a 75% decrease in overstock inventory, and a 21% increase in device utilization. In September 2026, ARC secured a $60 million growth investment from Acadia Investment Partners to accelerate product innovation and commercial expansion across retail, supply chain, logistics, grocery, airline, and warehousing industries.
