Frequently Asked Questions

How much space is needed for a micro market?

Most markets can operate in as little as 75–100 square feet, though larger spaces allow for expanded product variety. Smart Stores require even less room and can fit in compact breakrooms.

What is the difference between a micro market and a smart store?

A traditional micro market uses open shelving and coolers with a standalone kiosk for checkout. A smart store is a secured cooler or cabinet that unlocks when a user presents payment, then charges them automatically based on what they remove. Both offer convenient, self-serve access, but smart stores work well in high-traffic, public locations for a more theft-proof solution.

How often are micro markets restocked?

Stocking frequency depends on usage. Busy workplaces may receive multiple service visits per week, while smaller markets are replenished as needed. We monitor product levels to restock proactively.

What payment methods are supported?

Employees can use credit/debit cards, mobile wallets including Google Pay and Apple Pay, and contactless payments at the kiosk or smart store, making checkout fast and frictionless.

Can micro markets operate around the clock?

Yes. Micro markets are ideal 24/7 breakroom solutions and support workplaces with overnight or extended shifts.
