Hoyts Kiosk was launched as Instant DVD by Sydney-based entrepreneurs Andrew Evetts and Ian O'Rourke in 2005. They were inspired by seeing the success of similar DVD rental kiosks in the United States. In October 2009 they sold the business to Hoyts who rebranded the company as Oovie.
In November 2017, Hoyts Kiosk was acquired by Video Ezy Express and all its machines were rebranded.
