2. The audio electronic labelling system of claim 1, wherein the AESL further comprises a display unit for displaying information related to the product associated with the audio electronic shelf label.
3. The audio electronic labelling system according to claim 1, wherein the AESL further comprises a power source configured for supplying power to one or more components of the AESL.
4. The audio electronic labelling system according to claim 1, wherein the AESL further comprises a memory configured for storing information about the product associated with the AESL.
5. The audio electronic labelling system according to claim 1, wherein the central server is configured for allocating an authentication code upon activating the application module installed on the user device.
6. The audio electronic labelling system according to claim 1, wherein the memory is configured to store an authentication code.
26

7. The audio electronic labelling system according to claim 1, wherein the control unit is configured for matching the authorization code provided by the user device with the authorization code stored in the memory of the AESL, and upon successful matching, the AESL is configured to transmit identity information, price information or information related to the product, to the user device.
8. The audio electronic labelling system according to claim 1, wherein the communication interface is configured to receive a new authorization code matching an authorization code in the label to replace an old authorization code.
9. An Audio Electronic Shelf Label (AESL) configured for providing information related to a product associated with the audio electronic shelf label, the AESL comprising:
a communication interface for communicating information related to the AESL;
a control unit coupled to the communication interface, and wherein the control unit is configured for processing the information related to the AESL; and
an audio interface unit coupled to the control unit, and wherein the audio interface unit is configured for generating audio signals encoded with a characteristic audio tag upon receiving an indication from a user device.
10. The AESL according to claim 9, further comprises a communication interface
and wherein the communication interface is configured to be communicatively
coupled to a central server, and wherein the central server is configured for
controlling an operation of the AESL.
27

11. The AESL according to claim 9, wherein the communication interface is configured to be communicatively coupled to an application module installed on a user device associated with a user, and wherein the application module is configured for interfacing the user with the AESL.
12. The AESL according to claim 9, wherein the communication interface is configured to be communicatively coupled to a billing module installed on a POS device, and wherein the billing module is configured for generating a virtual cart associated with the user.
13. The AESL according to claim 9, wherein the communication interface is configured to be communicatively coupled to a radio frequency communicator configured for routing information related to the AESL to the central server.
14. The AESL according to claim 9 further comprises a display unit for displaying information related to the product associated with the audio electronic shelf label.
15. The AESL according to claim 9 further comprises a power source configured for supplying power to one or more components of the AESL.
16. The AESL according to claim 9 further comprises a memory configured for storing information about the product associated with the AESL.
28

17. The AESL according to claim 9, wherein the memory is configured for storing an authentication code, and wherein the central server is configured for allocating an authentication code upon activating the application module installed on the user device.
18. The AESL according to claim 9, wherein the control unit is configured for matching the authorization code provided by the user device with the authorization code stored in the memory, and upon successful matching, and wherein the communication interface is configured to transmit identity information, price information or information related to the product, to the user device.
