YOUR FIRST MACHINE

Give your vending idea a practical plan.

Find a location, test the numbers and work towards your first refill. Use the guides and calculator freely; invited accounts can save a shared plan.

  1. Define the business

    Choose your customers, vending format, available time and starting budget.

  2. Model costs

    Record quoted costs and test cautious, expected and optimistic sales.

  3. Find a location

    Compare sites, speak to hosts and confirm access and customer demand.

  4. Secure site terms

    Agree responsibilities, payments, access and the terms for ending the arrangement.

  5. Choose a machine

    Check condition, product fit, payment compatibility and service support.

  6. Prepare installation and stock

    Confirm delivery access, power, first products and support contact details.

  7. Complete the first refill

    Check sales, expiry dates and faults; record what needs to change.
