KIOSKS IN MAINE

Built for the room Maine actually has

Regulars want out in five minutes; first-timers want to read without being hovered over. Kiosks serve both: an express lane for the shoppers who know their order, and pressure-free browsing for the ones still deciding — sort, filter, and read at their own pace, which matters in a store where the products live behind glass. Checkout asks for three things — first name, last name, phone number — and the order lands in your POS.

40% higher average order value

Nobody explores add-ons while a line forms behind them. Kiosks let shoppers browse without the clock — and our recommendation engine suggests relevant products at the moments that matter. Less rush, bigger carts.

150% more loyalty sign-ups

Enrollment happens at the kiosk, mid-order, with no extra step at the counter — which is why stores see dramatically more sign-ups than on standard kiosks. Loyalty grows while the line moves.

Your brand on the glass, not ours

Kiosks are fully white-label: your colors, your logo, your voice. And checkout asks shoppers for exactly three things — first name, last name, phone number — because sixteen form fields is how you end a line-skipping express lane.

IN-STORE SCREEN RULES · MAINE

What you can show on screens in Maine

Adult-use stores in Maine may display signs on the licensed premises, and ordinary prices and discounts may be shown. Advertising may not depict consumption, make potency claims beyond listing cannabinoid content, make curative, therapeutic, or health-benefit claims, target minors, imitate candy, show risky activities, claim products are safe because they are regulated or tested, or encourage rapid consumption. Bundle discounts, below-cost pricing, and giving away items that target minors are prohibited. The "For use only by adults twenty-one years of age and older" statement and license number are required on print, television, radio, and internet advertising; whether that reaches in-store screens is not addressed. Approval is voluntary, with a 30-day written decision that shields approved material from enforcement. Medical caregivers and dispensaries are governed by the medical statute, which bars false content, mass-market campaigns likely to reach under-21s, and mixing medical and adult-use marketing in one sign.

Applies to: adult-use under 28-B M.R.S. § 702 and 18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30; medical under 22 M.R.S. § 2429-B. Regulator: Maine Office of Cannabis Policy (OCP).

Signs on the licensed premises are expressly permitted. “including the display of a sign on the licensed premises and off the licensed premises on the exterior of a motor vehicle” (28-B M.R.S. § 702(3))
No depiction of consumption; no potency claims beyond listing cannabinoid content; no depiction of risky activities such as driving or operating machinery. “Include claims related to potency (beyond listing of cannabinoid content)” (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(1)(B)(2)-(4))
No content that targets minors, no candy imitation or the word "candy," and no images of minors. (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(1)(B)(5)-(7))
No claims that products are safe because they are regulated or tested; no curative, therapeutic, or health-benefit claims; nothing encouraging excessive or rapid consumption. “Make claims that cannabis has curative or therapeutic effects” (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(1)(B)(9)-(12))
No false, deceptive, or misleading statement on any sign or document given to a consumer. (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(1)(C)(1))
The 21+ statement and license number are required on print, television, radio, and internet advertising; in-store screens are not listed. “on all print, television, radio and internet advertising in font size legible to the viewer” (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(3))
Bundle discounts and pricing significantly below wholesale are prohibited; giving away items that target minors is prohibited. Ordinary prices and discounts may be shown. “Discount cannabis or a cannabis product if the retail sale is made in conjunction with the retail sale of any other items” (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 1(8)(C)(13), (15)-(16))
Approval is voluntary: a licensee may submit any sign, advertisement, or marketing material, and the Office must decide within 30 days; approved material is protected from enforcement. No fee was found. (28-B M.R.S. § 702(4); 18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(6))
Advertising may not be placed within 1,000 feet of a school unless a municipality sets a different distance. (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(1)(C)(4))
Medical: no co-marketing of medical and adult-use in one sign; patient testimonials only with the FDA disclaimer; no mass-market campaigns likely to reach under-21s. (22 M.R.S. § 2429-B)
No rule on visibility from outside, sign count or size, or video and motion signs was found. (28-B M.R.S. § 702; 18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30)

Potency on menus: Adult use: listing cannabinoid content is allowed, but advertising may not make potency claims beyond that (18-691 C.M.R. ch. 30, § 3(1)(B)(3)). Medical: no rule found.

Where the rule is "keep it accurate," a menu that reads from the POS does the work: sold-out products drop off on their own and the price on the wall is the price at the register. Where the rule is about content, the layout and the campaign are yours to keep inside the lines.

Kiosks in Maine: questions, answered

Do Maine dispensaries use self-service kiosks?

Yes — self-service is standard equipment in modern dispensaries, the same way it is in airports and quick-service restaurants. Seed runs screens in 950+ storefronts across 36 states and D.C. Maine’s opted-in towns carry the surrounding demand, so stores here punch above their size — busy counters, small teams.

Does a Seed kiosk work with my POS?

That’s the point of it. Kiosks populate from your live inventory through our API integrations — Dutchie, Treez, Blaze, Flowhub, COVA, and more — so shoppers only see in-stock products at the correct price, and orders land in your POS for fulfillment. See how the sync works.

Will the kiosk say Seed on it?

No — your kiosks are white-label. Your brand, your colors, your menu. Shoppers experience your store, not our logo.

Will self-service replace my budtenders?

Only as much as you want it to. Some stores run kiosks as the primary ordering channel and point staff at fulfillment; others use them as a pressure valve for rush hours. Your floor, your call — the kiosk just makes the choice available.

What does a kiosk cost?

Seed pricing is per location with unlimited screens and users — a kiosk doesn’t add a line item. Hardware runs on Elo touchscreens or iPads (2018 and newer). The full breakdown, hardware included, is in our dispensary kiosk cost guide.

How fast can my store go live?

Most stores go from signed to screens live in about a week. Book a demo — we’ll show your actual menu on a kiosk, not a mockup.

What can a Maine dispensary show on its in-store screens?

Adult-use stores in Maine may display signs on the licensed premises, and ordinary prices and discounts may be shown.
