Where does this data come from?
> Slice gets its data from e-receipts – not a browser, app or software installed by the end-user – so its measurement reflects comprehensive shopping behavior across multiple devices, over time which are key in an increasingly omnichannel retail world.
Pardon my ignorance, but what are e-receipts and how does Slice acquire them? Do retailers sell their receipts?

They scan people's emails/inboxes. > Slice Intelligence data comes from several sources, including the receipts in the e-mail inboxes of consumers who use the popular Slice online shopping service, Slice, and through strategic partners, including users of Slice’s API platform. Each e-mailed receipt contains a treasure trove of data. Yeah no doubt reading people's emails is a treasure trove of data.
