<\/p>\nThe consumer demand for fast and convenient shopping has never been higher. In the race to capture shoppers’ attention and stay competitive, retailers are deploying a suite of new, innovative solutions.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
IoT machines and wireless solutions are being used to meet the needs of customers, while also increasing revenue and reducing overall costs. One of the most popular strategies is automated retail systems. A standalone smart kiosk or smart vending machine is used in place of a traditional store, offering customers the freedom to purchase what they need, when they need it. From food and beverage vending machines to ticket payment machines and services like airport check-in, smart retail kiosks and vending machines are changing the way consumers shop.<\/p>\n

Robustel’s wireless solutions keep you connected to your vending machines and retail kiosks, allowing you to monitor and adjust your services from a remote location.<\/p>\n

You can stay connected to your smart vending solutions from any location with Robustel’s RCMS IoT software platform. Connect your Robustel device and you’ll be able to manage your machine without needing to be onsite.<\/p>\n

Kiosk technology has been in use for years in the form of airport check-ins, ATMs and even at tables in restaurants for paying the bill. However, advancements in kiosk computers and hardware have taken kiosks to a whole new level.
