State-of-the-Art Kiosks

Our Retail Digital Entertainment Platform combines sophisticated software and content management with the latest in self-serve kiosk hardware. The digital kiosks themselves have small footprint and can fit comfortably in a variety of store layouts. Or if you prefer, they can be mounted directly to a wall or aisle rack.

Simple User Interface

Kiosks are designed to make purchasing content easy, even for technology novices. Using a touch screen, customers can browse content by genre, title, actor, director and more. They can view movie trailers and sample music tracks. Then with one touch of the screen, they add their selections to a shopping cart and pay with a swipe of their credit card.

Fast Downloads

The content quickly downloads (about 2 minutes for a full-length movie, 30 seconds for a half-hour TV program) to portable Secure Digital (SD) memory cards. Compare this to typical Internet download times of an hour or more for a full-length movie due to limited bandwidth!

While their movies or music are downloading, your customers can continue to browse the selections, watching trailers and sampling audio tracks. They can also request the receipt be forwarded to an email account so the entire process is fast, streamlined and paperless. (And by capturing user emails, you have a built-in customer database for future instore promotions.)

The Beauty of Self-Service

Customers love the freedom of self-service, whether it’s online, at the airport or bank, on the phone or now–in your store. MOD Systems digital kiosks enable customers to get the entertainment they want, while your sales associates focus on selling higher value products where their expertise matters most.

Downloading to Flash Memory

Downloading movies onto reusable, inexpensive flash memory devices (SD memory card or USB flash drive) gives customers the flexibility to watch the entertainment anywhere on a range of different devices. And since SD cards are about the size of a postage stamp, they’re highly portable and ideal for customers’ on-the-go lifestyle.

No Rental Returns or Late Fees, No Hassle

Offering digital entertainment from kiosks is hassle free for you and your customers. If your customers choose to “rent” a movie, they will have thirty days to start watching it, and once they begin they’ll have 48 hours to view it as many times as they want. After this point the content will become inaccessible. Customers don’t have to worry about returning rental movies—much less late fees, and you don’t have to worry about stocking your shelves with product or dealing with overdue returns.

Of course, customers can purchase movies, too, and watch them indefinitely.

 

Go Green with SD

SD card capacity can be very large, allowing several full-length movies on one card, making it even more convenient for customers to load and go. (For example, an 8GB card can typically fit at least 3 full-length movies.)

In addition to the economic benefits, using SD flash memory technology is more environmentally conscious: it cuts waste considerably because the SD cards are reusable. Using digital download kiosks and SD cards to store, transport and play content virtually negates the transportation requirements of physical inventory—lessoning fuel consumption and carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere.

When you save a tree, cut down on landfill waste and limit transportation pollution, your customers (not to mention Mother Nature) will appreciate your efforts.
