What to consider –
-
Warranty (what it is / what it isn’t)
-
Service contract (SLA + labor + parts logistics)
-
Preventive maintenance (schedule + who does what)
The service side of self-service is always separate from the self-service kiosk design and manufacture (and the software). The purpose of this information is to reduce downtime and lowering TCO. It might be redundant but the biggest obstacle to success is always lack of investment. Food for thought:
-
35 % of kiosk failures are caused by lack of preventive cleaning (based on survey)
-
Remote diagnostics can reduce on-site visits by 40%
-
Average OEM extended warranty extension cost = 8–12% of equipment cost per year
3 SLA tiers
-
Bronze: business hours, parts-only, depot repair
-
Silver: 24/7 triage + advance replacement parts
-
Gold: 24/7 + on-site labor + response-time targets + PM visits
Your page already talks warranties, PM, remote monitoring/diagnostics—an SLA tier block makes it actionable.
who does what (operator vs technician)
-
Store staff: cleaning, paper, simple resets, visual inspection
-
Remote NOC/helpdesk: alerts, triage, remote fix, dispatch
-
Field tech: swap modules, payment device issues, deeper hardware work
Parts logistics
-
spare pools (how many spares per 100 kiosks)
-
advance replacement vs depot repair
-
what happens when peripherals go EOL
That’s the stuff people don’t learn until they get burned.

-
port locks / epoxy / internalize USB
-
tamper switches
-
alerting on cabinet open
