Shopping centres are bustling hubs of business and leisure. Everything from cafes, to shops, even toilets and lifts can benefit from digital kiosks. If you run a shopping centre, you want to maximise the experience for visitors, guiding them from store to store, but you also want to help them make the most out of the distance between.
Do Shopping Centres need Digital Kiosks?
Many shops are using digital kiosks to improve the shopping experience. This includes self-service checkouts, interactive catalogues, and advertising kiosks (digital signage).
Outside of the shops, digital kiosks are just as useful. Without them, you not only make the experience less interactive for visitors, but the centre will look less modern than the shops it contains.
Benefits of Digital Kiosks for Shopping Centres
Implementing digital kiosks into your centre can:
- Help with navigation
- Provide information
- Advertise deals, events, and new changes
- Allow visitors to shop online
- Collect information via surveys
Our advanced digital kiosks contain these features and more, giving users access to everything they need to improve their shopping experience.
Which Digital Kiosks can be used in Shopping Centres?
A wide range of digital kiosks can be used in shopping centres. Let’s go over them one at a time.
Maps and Signage for Shopping Centres
First, signage. Navigating through a busy shopping centre can be tricky, and not finding what they need frustrates shoppers. Digital signage kiosks can be much more than just a signpost.
Digital signage directs shoppers and can be updated as your shopping centre develops. If there is a new store or café, you can update the signs to reflect that, and even give them a boost of advertising. Any events can also be pointed out, and visitors can be kept informed of any closures or development work being done.
In a similar vein, digital maps have all the benefits of digital signage but with added interactivity. Static maps are useful but can be awkward to use and easily become outdated as your shopping centre develops.
The digital maps we create are fully interactive. Users can zoom at will, which is essential for accessibility. They can also see details for every store, such as opening times and even how busy it is. The maps can be updated regularly, so the information provided will always be accurate.
Interactive Kiosks for Shopping Centres
Interactivity is at the heart of our digital kiosks. As advanced as some signage and projection screens may be, the ability to interact makes them more fun and memorable for shoppers.
The best interactive kiosks for shopping centres can provide information, similar to interactive maps, or even allow for shopping and placing orders. After each interaction, you can also use your digital kiosks to collect feedback, helping you to improve the shopping experience in ways you know visitors will like.
By streamlining the shopping experience, shoppers will be less stressed, making their time in your centre much more enjoyable even during peak times.
Advertising Kiosks for Shopping Centres
Arguably the most important use for a digital kiosk is for advertising. Large digital screens can show a range of ads, scrolling through each to catch shoppers’ eyes. The ads shown can be changed and updated regularly too.
The best advertising screens are interactive kiosks, allowing shoppers to find out more about products, deals, and events simply by tapping the screen.
Our most popular digital kiosks are our ‘totem’ screens. These are tall, with a clear screen that can be seen from across your centre. But if you want to do something bigger, large projection screens can be used in open areas, which are impossible for shoppers to miss.
