Vending Machine with Digital Signage: Double the Power

Why give away space? Our hybrid machines combine a fully equipped vending machine with a professional Digital Signage advertising display. Draw attention and earn extra revenue at a single location.

Vending and Marketing, Combined

A conventional machine often sits passively in the corner. A vending machine with Digital Signage is an active eye-catcher that stops customers. With bright, moving images on large screens (for example 43" or 55" built into the door), you draw the eye. Use that attention twice: first, to promote products and lift sales (uplift of up to 40%). Second, to rent the ad space to third parties (DOOH – Digital Out of Home) and earn fixed monthly advertising income, independent of product sales.

Benefits of the Hybrid Solution

Two Revenue Streams

Sales margin plus advertising income. The machine often pays for itself through advertising alone.

Attention

Moving images catch the eye. Customers stop, look and buy on impulse.

Product Explanation

Show videos on how to use products that need explaining, right at the point of sale.

Remote Management

Control ad content and prices centrally through our cloud software. Content changes in seconds.

Modern Image

Show that you are connected. Replace static posters with dynamic content you change in seconds.

Cross-Selling

The screen suggests matching add-ons for the chosen product ("Fancy a drink with that bar?").

Technical Setup: Everything from One Source

The big advantage of vyndo: we come from Digital Signage. We do not simply "bolt" a screen onto a machine. Our devices are integrated systems. The Digital Signage software runs stably and independently of the vending controller, but shares the same screen. When a customer touches the touchscreen, the system switches straight from advertising mode into sales mode. Thanks to our partnership with UpReach and CUBE, we can even add gamification: "Play a game on the screen and win a discount for the machine."

Use Cases for Hybrid Machines

Shopping Malls

The machine sells snacks, the 55-inch screen shows ads for the shops in the center. Mall operators love this solution because it looks better and brings in rental income.

Gyms

Selling protein shakes and bars. The screen runs class schedules, trainer introductions and ads for sportswear.

Public Transport

People wait at stations. Fill the waiting time with news, weather and ads on the machine display. Drink sales are the bonus.

Refinancing Through Advertising

A sample calculation: a classic machine at a good location makes 500€ profit per month. A Digital Signage machine makes 600€ in sales profit thanks to better visibility, PLUS 300€ from selling ad time to local partners (for example a taxi service or delivery service). Your return rises significantly and the payback time is cut in half. TSE-compliant under KassenSichV — required for all machines with a payment function since 2020.

Software & Content Management (CMS)

You get access to our CMS (Content Management System). Upload videos and images by drag and drop, build playlists and schedules (for example coffee ads in the morning, drink ads in the evening). Everything runs in the browser and can be controlled from anywhere.

Cost and Financing

Machines with Digital Signage are priced at 3.000–15.000 € (purchase). Rental from a one-day term, leasing from 99 €/month. The surcharge over basic models pays off quickly through higher sales and advertising income.

Common Questions on Vending & Digital Signage

Does the advertising disrupt the buying process?

No. As soon as the customer approaches or touches the screen, the advertising moves into the background or into a small window mode.

Which screen sizes are available?

As standard we integrate 21", 32" or striking 50"/55" screens directly into the door front.

Can I switch the display off separately?

Yes, schedules let you dim or switch off the screen at night to save energy.

What happens if the internet goes down?

The content is stored locally (caching). The advertising keeps running, even if the connection drops for a moment.

Is the software complicated?

No, our CMS is built to be easy to use. We also offer free training.

Who creates the ad content?

You can use your own images and videos or book our agency services for professional content. You manage playlists and schedules yourself through the browser-based CMS, so the ad space stays up to date at all times.

Is the device more expensive?

Yes, the investment is higher than for a blind machine, but the ROI (return on investment) is usually better thanks to the advertising income.
