Most operators are managing two or three payment providers, a separate telemetry system, and a spreadsheet in between. KUARIO replaces all of it. One device connects your machine to every cashless payment method — cards, mobile wallets, QR codes, staff and campus cards — fully integrated, MDB-compatible, no additional hardware required.
Every transaction feeds directly into your management dashboard. Real-time sales per machine. Remote pricing and product control. Automated clearing and settlement under one contract — one consolidated report, one payout to your bank account. No reconciling across providers. No fragmented reporting.
Running a vending fleet means managing machines across multiple locations, with multiple providers, and contracts and margin pressure at every turn. KUARIO replaces that fragmented setup with one system: one device per machine, one platform for your entire fleet, one payout.
Less hardware. Less administration. Less time reconciling reports that should be one.
Calculated from 2024 BDV Operator Study industry benchmarks
Most operators are losing margin in places they can’t see: service trips that weren’t needed, cash handling costs spread across multiple providers, hours spent reconciling reports that should be one. KUARIO makes those losses visible — and stops them. Fewer unnecessary runs. Less cash handling. One report, one payout. The €18–32 isn’t a feature. It’s what’s left when the hidden costs stop.

No machine replacement needed. The HPT25 installs on your existing MDB-compatible machines and connects them to the platform. It accepts all cashless payment methods on a single device — cards, mobile wallets, QR codes, and closed-loop methods like campus cards and staff IDs, replacing multiple terminals and integrations.
Pricing rules and privileges are applied automatically at the point of payment, without any manual intervention or separate configuration per machine.
See real-time sales per machine, and control products and pricing remotely. Every location, every transaction, every machine in one dashboard. Configuration is managed centrally across locations, with live data and reporting that reduce manual effort across day-to-day operations.
Start with five machines. Roll out across your full fleet when you’re ready. No additional systems, no additional complexity — the platform grows with your operation.
The KUARIO App gives users a simple way to access benefits, view balances, manage their activity, and receive refunds across KUARIO-enabled services. It supports personalised pricing and user-specific privileges, while complimenting HybridPay Terminal-based payments.
Available on Android and iOS, the app supports multiple languages and currencies and works consistently across locations and services.
KUARIO integrates easily with existing vending machines, kiosks and self-service devices via MDB or provided APIs. Terminals follow EVA-Mini standard making them quick to install. The cloud-based platform requires no local servers, no complex IT setup. Go live in days, not months.
The KUARIO POSCloud API connects cash registers, vending machines, and self-service kiosks through one secure integration, supporting the HybridPay Terminal with unified reporting and consolidated payouts.
KUARIO is built to meet PSD2, PSD3, GDPR and ISO 27001 standards. Security and privacy are built into the platform by design, ensuring every transaction and personal detail is protected.
KUARIO supports all major open-loop payment methods, including Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and more, alongside QR codes and closed-loop payment methods such as campus cards and staff IDs.
KUARIO is a member of the European Vending & Coffee Service Association (EVA) and the Bundesverband der Deutschen Vending-Automatenwirtschaft (BDV), and stays closely connected to fee structures, regulations, and the day-to-day realities operators deal with.
That’s why our system reflects how your business actually works.
