Question 1

How does the process work?

Accepted Answer

Getting started is simple:

1) Fill out the form on this page and tell us about your location.
2) We'll contact you to review your needs and answer any questions.
3) Your vending equipment is then delivered and installed — typically within a week.

The entire process is fast, easy, and free. All equipment, delivery, and setup is handled by your assigned provider.

Question 2

Do we have to pay for machines?

Accepted Answer

No. All vending equipment is provided, delivered, and installed at no cost to you.

There are no rental fees, lease agreements, or service charges. Your vending provider earns money through product sales, so they maintain and stock the machines regularly to keep your team satisfied.

Question 3

Do we need a certain number of employees or foot traffic to qualify?

Accepted Answer

No, we serve all types and sizes of locations in Phoenix. Typically, 20 or more people per day is ideal, but we can often help smaller locations that other vending companies can't.

Most vending companies set a strict cutoff at 40–50 people, but thanks to our large network of providers, we’re uniquely positioned to support smaller businesses, retail shops, and even apartment communities.

If you’re not sure whether your location qualifies, just submit the form — we’ll review your info and match you with the best option available in Phoenix.

Question 4

Can we request a certain type or model of vending machine and who stocks the machine with product?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. You can request a snack machine, drink machine, combo machine, micro market, or coffee setup — just let us know your preferences.

Your vending provider will stock and restock the equipment on a regular basis with popular items or custom selections. If you have specific brands or dietary needs, those can often be accommodated as well.

Question 5

Can we choose what products go in the machine?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Most providers let you request specific snacks, beverages, or healthy options.

Some locations prefer to pick from a full product list, while others trust the provider to stock top-selling items. You can also update your preferences anytime if your team’s tastes change.

Question 6

Do you offer healthy snack and drink options?

Accepted Answer

Yes! In addition to traditional snacks and beverages, we can stock your vending machines with a wide variety of healthy options.

This includes low-calorie drinks, low-sugar snacks, gluten-free items, and even fresh selections in some areas. Whether you want a fully wellness-focused setup or a healthy mix alongside standard favorites, we’ll tailor the product list to your needs.

Question 7

What types of vending machines are available?

Accepted Answer

We offer a wide variety of vending machines, including snack-only machines, drink-only machines, combo machines, coffee vending, micro markets, and AI-powered smart coolers.

Your provider will help you choose the best type based on your space, foot traffic, and preferences.

Question 8

Do you offer both Coke and Pepsi products?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we do! Unlike many vending companies that are limited to either Coke or Pepsi, our network includes providers that carry both.

That means your machines can be stocked with whatever brands your team prefers — from Coca-Cola and Diet Pepsi to Gatorade, Mountain Dew, Smartwater, and more. Just let us know your preferences, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Question 9

How long does installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most vending machines can be installed within 5–7 business days, depending on your location and preferences.

Some installs happen faster if your provider has local inventory ready. We’ll always communicate timelines upfront and coordinate a convenient delivery time for your business.

Question 10

Is there a contract or long-term commitment?

Accepted Answer

Many providers offer flexible, no-contract options, especially for smaller locations.

In some cases, longer-term agreements may be available if you prefer to lock in a commission or custom product setup. We’ll help you understand your options and choose a provider with terms that work best for your business.

Question 11

Do you offer commission?

Accepted Answer

Yes, commissions are available for qualified locations. If your site averages $500 or more in monthly vending sales, you're likely eligible for a commission.

The exact rate varies by provider, location, and product mix. When we match you with a vending operator, they’ll explain the full commission structure. We always aim to get you the best deal possible for your type of business.

Question 12

How often are the machines restocked?

Accepted Answer

Restocking frequency depends on how busy your location is, but most machines are checked and refilled weekly or bi-weekly.

Some providers even use remote monitoring technology to track inventory in real time and adjust restocking schedules as needed.

Question 13

What happens if the machine breaks down?

Accepted Answer

If your vending machine has any issues — whether mechanical, payment-related, or stocking — your provider will handle it promptly.

Most service calls are completed within 24–48 hours. Machines are under full maintenance coverage, so you never pay for repairs or service visits.

Question 14

What if we’re unhappy with our current vending company?

Accepted Answer

We specialize in helping businesses switch from unreliable vending providers.

If you're experiencing poor service, missed restocks, or unresponsive support, we can quickly match you with a better option. There’s no disruption to your location, and we’ll walk you through how the transition works — it’s easier than most people expect.
