PicoCoffee standalone kiosk for OCS and nano markets
Built for automatic tabletop coffee machines, the PicoCoffee allows consumers to vend beverages and purchase micro market items in the same transaction.
This compact, cashless payment device streamlines the coffee vending and micro market experience for consumers, encouraging impulse buys and simplifying operations. By enabling automatic tabletop coffee and micro market vending in the same purchase, PicoCoffee provides convenience for customers while eliminating back-office administration and costs for operators.
Before PicoCoffee, beverage equipment required modifications to mount a payment device, which provided unique challenges for operators who financed equipment. Other options place devices inconspicuously beside machines, resulting in a less intuitive consumer experience.
Instead, the PicoCoffee standalone and self-provisioning kiosk easily integrates with a MDB cable, making it plug-and-play. Operators can deploy in minutes without obstacles to the opportunity that combined coffee and market service can yield.
PicoCoffee enables coffee operators with existing OCS services to expand strategically and economically into micro markets. Meanwhile, micro market operators can easily grow site sales with new inventory placement strategies. For example, an annexed floor relegated to coffee vending because of its size can now easily be upgraded with a small inventory of snacks to generate more income. One transaction on one device delivers unlimited potential for how micro market and office coffee operators serve their customers.
PicoCoffee standalone and self-provisioning kiosk was nominated for Automatic Merchandiser’s 2026 Readers’ Choice Awards, which recognize the Best New Products for Convenience Services in 2025.
