Why Self-Service Still Fails in 2026 and What Retailers Keep Getting Wrong

Kiosk

As retailers continue investing in customer-facing technologies, many are looking for ways to maximize the value of those investments.

According to a recent Retail TouchPoints article, "[m]odern kiosks, ESL systems and digital signage platforms are genuinely good, more reliable and more capable than anything that was available even five years ago." However, many retailers are still failing to successfully utilize the technology.

Excerpt: "Retailers who aren’t getting value from these investments are almost never failing because the hardware is inadequate. They’re failing because they deployed hardware into an operational environment that wasn’t ready to support it."
