Kiosk and Digital Signage News from Industry Group & Kiosk Association (KMA)'

DENVER, Colo., Jan. 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- January news from the Industry Group & Kiosk Association : NRF is coming up this weekend and we are hopeful our retail  facial payment finalist takes home the 'Best Payment Innovation' award. The transactions and enrollment numbers certainly justify it.

We also thank Jim Kruper with  KioWare who is managing the booth. Stop by and see contactless self-order, assistive technology ala McDonalds and the new Ingenico Self-4000 terminal. He is featured on our portal page on NRF --  NRF Big Show #1606

Big legal ADA news is Quest Diagnostics got very bad news on two fronts. The class action part will drive remedial actions across the entire country, and all units. That originally inexpensive kiosk has the definite possibility now of turning out to be an expensive choice.

For the upcoming DSE show in Vegas/March, besides hoping COVID will subside, we are hoping to show a cool 4K 85-inch demo deployed recently at super major retailer (they sell staples?). At NRA our odds are pretty good we will have the Samsung 'KMA' kiosk in our booth (running  Nanonation partner software). We are in the Tech Pavilion.

New Gold sponsors -  FEC POS -- now entering self-checkout (SCO) kiosk market. American Kiosks - offices here in Colorado. Custom projects is prime competency.

This release was issued through Send2Press®, a unit of Neotrope®. For more information, visit Send2Press Newswire at The ONLY time we do NOT need to add the Neotrope bug is if the source is a publicly traded company AND the ticker is included within the text. (updated 4/26/18 BB) 2.) The Neotrope bug should NOT push the customer into an overage cost. If the 20 words make a difference in regard to billing/word overages, put a billing note to bill for the adjusted word count. **Place in the billing comments: 'Please bill for XX words.' - this is part of their LOA. Example: if a release is 525 words, a billing note should be added to bill at 500 words since it falls at 505, which is within the 10-word buffer and should therefore not result in an overage. (3/24/21 RA per VPO) CONTACT INFO / NOTES TO EDS: Chris puts everything for the media only below the pound signs or the word 'MEDIA' at the end of the release. NOTE TO EDITORS in 'slashes' means that it should be for MEDIA ONLY. Anything above the '###' should be public. (Updated 07/29/20 | BC) - For WEB ONLY releases, Chris has confirmed that we should follow the existing ed note re: contact info. Everything above the hash tags is OK to post online. Any contact below hash tags should be removed and not posted. He may submit Web-only releases with no contact info, and this is fine. (SR 2/8/12) Per Chris, there is never any need to hyperlink the logo link at the end of the release. He leaves the ' out on purpose. (updated 5/12/2015 MSpeegle) UPDATE: Chris has started making the Send2Press image links active hyperlinks on some releases. No need to ask about this. (ZD 6/27/19) * CHANGES: In regard to minor punctuation changes, such as comma or period insertions, Chris says it is okay to just change them. Only call him with major changes. (SF 10/14/05) *AFTER HOUR CHANGES: IMPORTANT - Chris doesn't like to be called after hours (6pm - 7:30am) for editorial questions. Try to process releases before 6pm. PLEASE CONSULT A SUPERVISOR PRIOR TO CONTACTING CHRIS AFTER HOURS. *Per Chris, if we REALLY NEED to reach him after-hours, it is best to try him at his office, 310-373-4856. He also said his office number transfers to his home so it's the best way of reaching him. (IL, 10/6/06)
