Best Kiosk Design Awards for “Best We’ve Seen!” in 2024

Kiosk and Self-Service Awards – The kiosk industry and self-service generally is rarely legitimately recognized for excellence. Exceptional designs and deployments deserve recognition. Too often awards are effectively bought and purchased. Usually part of the “float a balloon” concept with no real world data or example. We have our own stable of judges and experts with over 200 years in group experience. We don’t pay judges and we don’t charge to be recognized.  There are no requirements and is open to all companies no matter where they are located.

  • Kiosks must be deployed to be considered (though we can note revolutionary design prototypes).
  • For every submission we/KMA will donate $100 to Retail ROI initiate for Orphans. Great cause. Great team behind it — https://www.retailroi.org/supersaturday
  • Note that there is no entry fee required. It’s free, + it is an indirect donation to a worthy cause.
  • If interested in submitting, please end info to [email protected] or you can text 7203241837  (messages, Whatsapp or Telegram)

The best kiosk designs exemplify several key qualities that enhance both customer experience and business efficiency:

  1. User-Friendly Interface: They are designed to be intuitive and easy to navigate, ensuring that customers can place orders quickly and without confusion.
  2. Integration with POS Systems: The best kiosks seamlessly integrate with point-of-sale (POS) systems, allowing for smooth transactions and accurate order processing.
  3. Customization and Flexibility: They offer customizable options to handle complex orders, such as food modifiers or special requests, making them suitable for various business types.
  4. Marketing and Upselling: These kiosks often include features that suggest popular add-ons and collect customer information for marketing purposes, helping businesses increase sales.
  5. Efficiency and Speed: By reducing wait times and allowing customers to order at their own pace, self-order kiosks help businesses manage high volumes more effectively.
  6. Accessibility: They are designed to be accessible to all customers, including those with disabilities, ensuring an inclusive experience.
