Sophatar intros touchless digital signage kiosk solution ProxiPay-Go

December 16, 2020

Sophatar has introduced its ProxiPay-Go software-as-a-service solution for touchless digital signage kiosks. By combining with a display, media player and a pay terminal, a user can craft a touchless POS kiosk that can interact with customer's phones, according to a press release.

The platform consists of:

• Software to generate digital signage for products and services.
• Auto-generated companion mobile-response commerce website to show all available products on kiosk.
• Animated QR codes customers can open website on phone.
• Connection from signage player to pay terminals for EMV transactions.

"While we introduced the ProxiPay concept early March, just before Covid hit, it still required a customer to interact with a terminal to select products. Now ProxiPay-Go makes it completely touchless by introducing the mobile interactivity. We estimate ProxiPay-Go lowers the implementation cost of a self-service kiosk by five times or more compared to traditional solutions with a large touchscreen and custom fixtures," Bart DeCanne, founder and CEO, Sophatar, said in the release. "Just hang a display off the wall, place a pay terminal on a pedestal nearby, subscribe to our service, and start taking orders. No change to your existing POS required, as we interact directly with the payment processor to put funds from ProxiPay-Go sales into your merchant account."
