Sesami

What Sesami does

Sesami Corporation is a Canadian-domiciled, privately held enterprise technology company that provides AI-enabled cash management software and intelligent cash-handling hardware to large retailers, banks, and OEM manufacturers of self-service equipment. Its core offering is the Sesami Enterprise Software (SES), a cloud-based, device-agnostic platform with an AI engine that drives predictive cash-demand forecasting and supply-chain optimization across the full cash cycle; the platform is paired with what the company describes as the broadest installed base of intelligent cash devices in the industry, including smart safes, cash recyclers, self-checkout/POS recyclers, teller cash recyclers, self-service banking systems, teller image capture, and Timed Access Cash Controllers (TACC). The company sells to enterprise customers via direct field sales organized across regional offices in Montréal (headquarters), Dallas, Amstelveen (Amsterdam), and Sydney, and monetizes through three revenue streams: hardware sales, SaaS subscription for the SES platform, and managed services (Cash Vault Services, ATM Installation/Maintenance/Management, and Back Office Operations Management) delivered through a global network of service partners. Post-sale support infrastructure references Arca and Tidel brands, indicating prior acquisitions or brand integrations consolidating the intelligent cash-device category.

Sesami targets three primary customer segments: Consumer Businesses (retail front office, back office, POS, self-checkout, smart safes, cash recyclers, TACC), Financial Institutions (teller cash recyclers, self-service banking, teller image capture, branch cash management), and OEMs (kiosk and self-service equipment manufacturers integrating embedded cash management). The company claims more than 540,000 intelligent devices deployed worldwide and cites 9 of the world's top 10 retailers, 10 of North America's 10 largest banks, and 3 of Europe's top 5 banks as customers. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, consistent with an enterprise sales motion that bundles hardware, software, and services into multi-year contracts. Marketing leverages enterprise content (blog, success stories, events/webinars), interactive ROI calculators and configuration tools, and LinkedIn for top-of-funnel awareness, with a "Get Started" bottom-of-funnel conversion path.
