The price of a touch screen kiosk, without the touch screen

How much a touch screen kiosk costs, and why Kiosky costs less

The question comes up in every first conversation. A window touch screen kiosk carries a large touch panel, a frame, a computer and display software. The price climbs with the size of the screen, its brightness in direct sun and its impact resistance. We will not quote any competitor's prices: ask for two quotes and you will soon see where the bill comes from.

Kiosky removes the most expensive part, the touch screen. The passer-by scans a QR code stuck on the window, on a poster or on the screen you already have, then speaks or types on their phone. The microphone and the keyboard are theirs. There is no panel to protect, no fingerprints to clean on the street side, no queue in front of a single screen.

What you pay for is the assistant. It answers with your information, in the visitor's language, day and night, and passes on the requests of people who want to go further.

Licence only: €1,190 excl. VAT per year per window

This is the base price: €1,190 excl. VAT a year per kiosk or window, i.e. €99 a month. It is paid annually. If you already have a screen in the window, or a poster with a QR code is enough for you, you need nothing else.

For property management companies, the price is worked out per property. It is given on request.

First-year packs: the licence with a stand delivered

For a tablet that can be seen from the street and does not walk off, the pack adds a stand to the first-year licence. The stand is delivered to you and belongs to you. The tablet is not supplied: you use the one you have, or buy one yourself.

Here are the five packs, with the difference from the licence alone. That difference is what the stand costs you, once.

• MacLocks BrandMe backlit window kiosk: €1,590 excl. VAT, i.e. €400 more than the licence
• MacLocks PowerMove BrandMe, removable tablet charged on the stand: €1,650 excl. VAT, i.e. €460 more
• MacLocks Rise counter stand: €1,490 excl. VAT, i.e. €300 more
• MacLocks Swing wall mount: €1,490 excl. VAT, i.e. €300 more
• Arkon flexible clamp arm: €1,190 excl. VAT, the price of the licence, with the arm free

Renewal: the subscription from year two

From the second year, only the licence renews: €1,190 excl. VAT a year per kiosk. You paid for the stand once. There is no hardware rental that keeps coming out every month.

An example with the BrandMe backlit kiosk: €1,590 excl. VAT in the first year, then €1,190 excl. VAT in the years after. With the Arkon arm, it is €1,190 excl. VAT every year, first year included.

No commitment beyond the year paid for. If you do not renew, the licence ends on its expiry date. The stand stays with you and you can use it for something else.

What the price does not include

Better to know before you sign. The assistant only knows your pages. If a price changes and the page is not updated, the answer will be wrong. Keeping your information up to date is your job, from your phone.

• The tablet, including in the packs with a stand
• The window screen, if you want to show the QR code on a screen you do not have yet
• Online payment and booking: the assistant does not do them
• The viewing, the appointment or the quote: it takes the request, you handle it

Comparing two quotes without getting it wrong

A kiosk price means nothing on its own. Ask every supplier the same questions. How much do I pay in the first year, all in? How much do I pay after that, each year? Who updates the content, and how quickly? Does the visitor have to touch a screen in the street, or can they use their phone? What happens if I stop?

At Kiosky, each answer fits on one line: the price of the pack or the licence, then €1,190 excl. VAT a year, your pages edited from your phone, the visitor's own phone, and a stand that stays yours if you stop.
