FAQs About Micromarkets
​
What is a micromarket?
These kiosks are transforming workplace breakrooms and waiting areas by offering pre-packaged fresh food and drinks. Since they’re self-service, there’s no need for a staffed cafeteria. They’re a lot like convenience stores with checkout kiosks that accept electronic payments.


How does payment at a micromarket kiosk work? 
The customer experience is fast, simple, and convenient. They choose their snack, food, or drink, take it to the checkout kiosk, and choose their payment method. The kiosks accept credit, debit, and cash, and they have fingerprint readers for electronic payments through Apple and Google Pay. Your employees can also load an Avanti Markets card to gain access to our rewards program. They can check their balances and load their cards online.

​
What kinds of food do micromarkets stock? Can I stock healthy food in my kiosk?
Yes! You can choose to stock fresh foods, including fruit, pre-packaged raw vegetables, salads, sandwiches, cookies, and more. You can also choose convenience items like beef jerky, trail mix, granola bars, chips, pretzels, candy, and pastries. And you can provide drinks, including bottled water, soda, juice, and energy drinks.
