AUTOMATED RETAIL (AR) VS TRADITIONAL
EQUIPMENT
Traditional vending utilizes outdated technology that has been around for years and is mostly unchanged. The latest machines offer AI, Robotics, Touch Screen, and up-to-date payment methods.
PROFITABILITY
In traditional vending, most people are unwilling to spend more than a few dollars. However, using Automated Retail Kiosks, your customers are comfortable spending considerably more, up to several hundred dollars.
FLEXIBILITY
Traditional vending machines are limited to the product’s size, weight, and durability. If the item is too large or too fragile, it won’t be dispensed from the machine. Additionally, if the item is fragile, the dispensing from the machine could cause damage. In the well-implemented AR system, these unforgiving product drops never happen.
MARKETING & BRANDING
AR machines are typically larger and can showcase your products and promote your brand. The unique user experience and interactions instill credibility for higher-end brands that would never be dispensed in traditional vending. AR vending can educate and connect with customers on high-value products like earphones, computers, phones, and phone accessories.
