Quick update: we went and restocked the machines. People have definitely been using them more due to the card readers.


Yea. Card readers were a game changer on our machines.

We found an awesome vending repair company that is going to convert 3 of the snack machines to MDB, install the card readers, and install the compressor on the broken soda machine. So we'll have 8 fully loaded machines with card readers


That’s good. I’d assume you’ll have to meet them to let them in the machines, which means you’ll be able to watch and maybe learn some things?

How have you decided to get your product right now?

Truthfully, we could have figured out how to do it all ourselves, but since we have a couple other businesses...time wise it's way better to pay them $200 in labor to knock it all out. And for $9k all in (original purchase, card readers, and upgrades) we're going to have 8 fully functional machines with card readers. Not too shabby.

We went with sams club/costco for now. I figure that'll work well until we decide to find new locations. Then we'll have to go with what you do as it'll make life a million times easier.

I'd say our biggest headache so far has been learning how to properly fill the snack machines. Holy shite is it easy for the product to get stuck in those frickers.

How do you handle refunds? We're going to create an email and put it on each machine so people can reach out with any issues. I refuse to put a cell number since I don't want a bunch of calls
