How long does it take to get a machine placed?
1.
Once we receive the “green light” to place a machine, it takes about 2 weeks. In that time, we will send out a product selection survey, build out and setup the machine according to your preferences. We will remain in constant contact and once we have an exact day in mind to deliver your machine, we will let you know.

3.
The place of business assumes the cost of electricity to run the machine, which is on average $5-$10 per month. We handle everything else, including maintenance, stocking, etc.
How often do you restock the machine?

Machines are restocked on a weekly basis. We also have the ability to remotely check the stock of items in the machine. So if we know you are low or out of a product, we will make every attempt to restock it before your normal restocking service.
Our Smart AI Marketplace machines are very simple to use. Customers simply walk up to the machine and tap their method of payment. The door then unlocks and the customer can make their selections. AI cameras watch to see what products the customer actually takes. After making their selections, the customer then closes the door. The door then locks and the customer is only charged for the items they took.
Our Smart AI Marketplace machines are typically stocked with a variety of items, including sodas, energy drinks, and waters. A variety of snacks are also stocked including chips, candy, pastries, and more. We work with locations to make sure we provide an appropriate selection of products, including healthier, higher protein, lower calorie options, etc.
Advanced sensors and camera vision only charge for items removed when the door locks, preventing accidental charges. That means that your employees and customers can pick up, look at the items, and put them back if they decide they don’t want them.
The best locations for a smart machine include breakrooms, common hallways, high-traffic zones, waiting areas, lobbies, and more. Our machines only need a regular 110v wall outlet, so they can go essentially anywhere.
By a mile; our machines are better. We use smart AI Marketplace machines. They are modern, clean, basic machines that look like a cooler, not a big clunky metal box. Our machines are cashless and minimalist, which means you don’t have to worry about the machine “eating your money” or malfunctioning while vending your item. With our machines, you simply tap your card, open the door, grab the item(s) you want, close the door and walk away. That’s it.
If your business has a daily average customer/employee count of at least 50 people, your business could be a great fit. The best way to gauge if a machine is right for your business is to reach out to us. We will come and meet with you to learn more about your business and scope out a potential machine location.
