AURES Technologies
POS terminals, kiosks, printers and displays for retail and food service
AURES designs and manufactures point-of-sale hardware: all-in-one touch terminals (YUNO, SANGO), self-order kiosks, receipt printers, customer displays and peripherals used with third-party POS software in shops and restaurants. Headquartered south of Paris, it was acquired by Taiwan's Advantech in October 2024 and continues to operate from France.
Our reading. Best for restaurants and shops whose POS software vendor supports AURES terminals and who want durable, good-looking EU-designed hardware.
Strengths
- Design-oriented POS terminals popular with restaurants
- Kiosk and peripheral range from one vendor
- Subsidiaries in the UK, Germany, Australia and the US
Limits
- Hardware only, POS software from partners
- Owned by a non-EU group since 2024
Founded 1989, one of Europe's main POS-hardware manufacturers with a 60-country channel
Formerly listed on Euronext Paris; now trades as Advantech-AURES with headquarters in France
