Payment & accessibility

This cold drinks can vending machine accepts coins and notes. Card and phone payments can be added with telemetry for £10 a month plus 2% per transaction; see our contactless vending machine guide.

A note on drinks and sugar

Many soft drinks have been reformulated with less sugar because of the Soft Drinks Industry Levy, which charges producers on high-sugar drinks. As the operator, you buy finished stock with the levy already in the price, so simply offer a mix of regular, diet, zero-sugar and water options in your cold drinks can vending machine.

Estimating your return on a cold drinks can vending machine

At £1150, this is one of our lower-cost drinks machines, and cans are cheap to buy in bulk. That helps it pay for itself quickly at a busy site.

Returns depend on footfall, pricing and how well you keep it stocked. Try our profit calculator, or get in touch to talk through realistic numbers for your site.

Choosing a site for your cold drinks can vending machine

Cold drinks sell best where people are thirsty and there’s no shop close by, such as gyms, warehouses, sports venues and busy workplaces. Choose a spot with a safe power supply and space around the back for ventilation.

For workplaces and shared sites, offering the owner a small commission or a flat placement fee often helps win approval. Our placement agreements guide explains how to set this up.

Keeping the machine running smoothly

Load cans correctly in each column and label the buttons clearly. Wipe the front and buttons, empty the cash box regularly and check the machine stays cold.

How this compares to a branded drinks machine

Branded machines catch the eye but are usually stocked mainly with that brand’s drinks. This unbranded machine lets you sell whatever sells best at your site.

Stocking your cold drinks can vending machine

Cans are easy to buy from cash and carry and wholesale suppliers, and they keep for months. Start with cola, a zero-sugar option, lemonade, orange and sparkling water.

Keeping it simple

Push-button machines are quick to learn and easy to fix, which makes them a sensible first drinks machine for new operators.
