IPM France

What IPM France does

IPM France is a French designer, manufacturer, and integrator of interactive touchscreen kiosks, headquartered and producing in Romans-sur-Isère (Drôme). Its product family spans the EK 1000 identification terminal, EK 2000 information terminal, EK 3000-BVM object-dispensing and EK 3000 product line, EK 4000 multi-services payment kiosk, EK 5000 card distribution, and EK 8000 outdoor-rated kiosk, plus large-screen tactile totems and specialized formats for skipass, transport ticketing, teleconsultation, SIM distribution, and connected lockers. Underpinning the hardware are proprietary SoftKiosk middleware (Windows 11 IoT) and the DashKiosk hypervision platform, together marketed with deployment and field-maintenance services as the EasyKiosk "kiosk-as-a-service" bundle; sector-focused sub-brands include Tactiz (local authorities/early childhood), CPage/i-Kiosk and Exolis (healthcare admission), and Citykiosk (municipal reception).

The company sells exclusively B2B to enterprises and public-sector buyers via direct field and inside sales, an event-driven presence at trade shows such as Mountain Planet, MWC, Paris Retail Week, and SIDO, and a structured Younity Partner Programme that includes IBM (maintenance), Orange (Point Visio Public), Agfa HealthCare (LABorne), Smovengo (Vélib'), Arpège (Concerto Presto), and Casebook (lockers). Customers span healthcare (Institut Paoli-Calmettes, CNAF, Agfa HealthCare), ski and mountain (Les 2 Alpes, Les Contamines), transport and mobility (Rhônexpress/Transdev, TaM Montpellier, Smovengo), retail (Carrefour Belgium, Kiabi), energy (EDF), gaming (La Française des Jeux), and government (Bpifrance, Ville de Saint-Nazaire, Auvergne regional administration). Pricing is fully quote-based with no public list, projects are turnkey, and contracts are typically multi-year; the company cites more than 15 years of operation, 15,000+ units deployed, ~150 customer projects, and a presence in 120+ French cities.

Revenue mechanics combine hardware sales, recurring or project-based software/licensing for SoftKiosk and DashKiosk, professional services for deployment and field maintenance, and managed turnkey delivery; ESG positioning (EcoVadis, Numérique Responsable NR1, French Tech, French Fab, Bpifrance Excellence, PERL) is a deliberate lever for French public procurement. PCI DSS certification from the Groupement des Cartes Bancaires is highlighted as a differentiator among French kiosk suppliers. The firm is privately held as a S.A.S. with share capital of roughly €1.16M, has disclosed only one funding round of €900K in 2013, and operates with 11–50 employees.

Direct peers

• Pyramid Computer GmbH: German manufacturer of self-service kiosks, POS terminals, and interactive terminals for retail, transportation, and healthcare. Closest European peer to IPM France with similar product portfolio (information/ticketing/payment kiosks), in-house manufacturing, and B2B/government go-to-market across DACH and adjacent markets.
• AURES Technologies: French POS and kiosk hardware manufacturer headquartered near Paris. Direct French competitor to IPM France with overlapping product categories (POS terminals, self-service kiosks, retail systems) and similar SMB-to-enterprise customer base across retail and hospitality verticals.
• KIOSK Information Systems: US-based custom and standard self-service kiosk manufacturer serving retail, healthcare, government, and financial services. Comparable business model designing and building bespoke interactive kiosks with proprietary software for enterprise deployments, similar to IPM France's turnkey EasyKiosk offering.
• Olea Kiosks: US self-service kiosk manufacturer focused on retail, hospitality, healthcare, and government verticals. Comparable in product range (custom interactive kiosks, payment terminals, check-in/out solutions) and target customer profile to IPM France.

Broad incumbents

• Diebold Nixdorf: Global leader in self-service technology (ATMs, kiosks, banking terminals) and enterprise software for banking and retail. Serves as the broad incumbent benchmark in interactive kiosks, with much larger scale, global deployment capability, and competing for the same large enterprise and government tenders that IPM France targets.
• NCR Atleos: Global self-service financial and retail technology leader (spun out from NCR) specializing in ATMs, self-checkout, and unattended kiosks. Overlaps with IPM France on payment-enabled interactive kiosk deployments for banks, retailers, and transport operators.
• Elo Touch Solutions: Global touchscreen hardware and interactive display specialist serving retail, hospitality, healthcare, and industrial automation. While primarily a component/display supplier rather than full kiosk manufacturer, Elo's solutions overlap with IPM France's touchscreen kiosk deployments.
• Zebra Technologies: Enterprise asset intelligence and self-service technology provider with a strong kiosk/self-checkout portfolio through its acquisition of various retail technology firms. Competes for retail and healthcare kiosk deployments with broader enterprise focus than IPM France's vertical specialization.
• Advantech-DLoG: Taiwan-based industrial computing and embedded solutions provider with a self-service/kiosk product line. Operates as a larger-scale industrial hardware manufacturer supplying kiosk-grade computing platforms to system integrators and self-service OEMs in Europe.

Regional players

• Peerless-AV: US-headquartered AV solutions and kiosk manufacturer with growing European presence. Comparable in self-service kiosk hardware design and turnkey deployment services, though primarily focused on North American retail/QSR deployments versus IPM France's French/European vertical concentration.
