PayinTech established a collaboration with Advantech in Europe to create a suitable solution for the desired application.Advantech iRetail offered assistance with integrating their software solution, eventually determining that its AIM-37tablet with printer cradle provided the ideal hardware. Accordingly, Advantech provided PayinTech with a demo unit fortesting.

Currently ranked 2 9th on Forbes’ “America’s Largest Private Companies” list, Amway uses a multi-level marketing model to sell health, beauty, and home care products in various countries. In an effort to offer a truly unique customer shopping experience, Amway planned to build a customer experience center equipped with various interactive “experience kiosks”, such as makeup kiosks and body detection kiosks, that would provide an engaging one-stop shopping environment. Because this would be the first Amway customer experience center, the ability to provide prompt and satisfying service was the company’s most significant concern. To support its vision of providing integrated online and offline services, Amway required reliable, high-performance computing terminals to serve as interactive kiosks and point-of-sale (POS) systems. After evaluating several options, Amway selected Advantech to provide a comprehensive solution capable of supporting diverse applications.
Advantech provided its UTC-510 industrial-grade all-in-one touch computers, for use as interactive kiosks and digital signage displays, and its UPOS-510 POS system.
