A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ:AZ) is one of the best‑performing small‑cap tech stocks in the past three years. On November 25, the company announced that it had secured a purchase order from Super Sapir, an Israeli supermarket chain, for 3,000 of its smart shopping carts.

The total contract value is $30 million, under a deal that converts the purchase into a long‑term recurring‑revenue model. Super Sapir will pay a monthly fee per cart over a 60‑month period; that fee covers the carts themselves, charging stations, software, dashboards, maintenance, and other support services.

Importantly, A2Z Cust2Mate has secured exclusive rights to monetize the digital services tied to those carts within the Super Sapir network, including in‑store advertising, data services, and third‑party integrations. The agreement stipulates that Cust2Mate will pay Super Sapir a fixed fee for every thousand ads sold (CPM basis).

If deployed as planned, beginning in the first half of 2026, this rollout could mark a major scaling milestone and add a predictable recurring revenue stream for the company.

A2Z Cust2Mate Solutions Corp. (NASDAQ:AZ) builds and sells “smart carts” that enable in‑cart scanning and checkout. Its technology aims to reshape brick‑and‑mortar retail by merging hardware, software, and retail media into a unified in‑store shopping platform.
