The No. 1 Revenue Earner: Cold Drinks

Drinks are the revenue driver in the vending market. Whether outdoors in summer or in a hot office day – a cold drink always works. When you buy a drinks machine, you are betting on a safe thing. Our systems are specially designed to hold different container types. Whether a slim Red Bull can or a bulging 0.5l PET bottle: the mechanism grips reliably. Thanks to first-class insulation we keep the operating costs low, even when it gets hot outside.

Benefits of Our Drinks Machines

Container Variety

Whether 0.2l glass, 0.33l can or 0.5l PET. Our channels and lifts are flexibly adjustable.

Shock Cooling

Powerful compressors cool drinks down quickly – important at high footfall in summer.

Glass Front or Closed-Front

Choose between an attractive glass front (impulse buy!) or a vandal-proof closed front (outdoor/public).

Deposit Return (Optional)

For special locations we offer solutions in combination with reverse vending machines (but usually separate units).

Gentle Dispensing

Robot arms or lift systems prevent carbonated drinks from being shaken during dispensing.

Telemetry

You see in real time which variety is running low before you drive out to restock. HACCP-ready: temperature monitoring with a digital logbook via telemetry, the hygiene documentation runs automatically.

Glass Front vs. Column Machine

We offer both technologies. Glass-front machines (spirals/lifts) are ideal for indoor and protected areas. The customer sees the product, the buying incentive rises. Column machines (the classic column-type machines) are tougher, hold more goods per variety and dispense faster. They are ideal for outdoor and high-traffic spots, where customers know exactly what they want: press the button, the goods drop. All vyndo machines have telemetry, cashless payment (NFC, Apple Pay, Google Pay) and a 43–55" touchscreen. The integrated digital signage screen plays third-party advertising on standby. That is a second revenue stream that refinances your instalment (DOOH revenue).

Use Scenarios for Drinks Machines

Fitness Studios

Selling isotonic drinks, water and protein shakes in bottles. High margin, a grateful target group.

Production Halls

Employers are often obliged to provide water. A machine solves that logistically efficiently and hygienically.

Outdoor & Parks

On running routes or in parks, drinks machines achieve high sales in summer. Here we recommend our 'high-security' models with impact protection and graffiti-resistant coating.

Buy a Drinks Machine: Economics

The margin on drinks is attractive. Purchase price often 0.40€ – selling price 1.50€ to 2.50€. At a good location a machine sells 30-50 drinks a day. Do the maths yourself! What matters is energy efficiency: our new models use the natural refrigerant R290 (propane), which is environmentally friendly and cuts power consumption by up to 40% compared to old units. TSE-compliant under the KassenSichV — mandatory for all machines with a payment function since 2020.

Product Requirements and Temperature

For drinks, specific requirements apply to storage and dispensing. Temperature: cooled (3–7 °C). Bottle and can dispensing, energy-saving cooling, high capacity. Our software monitors the conditions permanently and automatically stops sales if limits are exceeded. That way you protect goods and customers.

Financing Your Drinks Machine

You have three options: purchase (3,000–8,000 €), rental from a one-day term or leasing from 99 €/month. With leasing, the machine ideally finances itself from the ongoing income. The instalments are tax-deductible as operating expenses. With rental, maintenance is often included – ideal for getting started or test phases.

Frequently Asked Questions About Drinks Machines

Do 1-litre bottles fit inside?

In standard spiral machines usually up to 0.5l or 0.75l. For 1.0l or 1.5l bottles we need special column models.

Can I sell glass bottles?

Yes, but only with a lift system (soft drop). In a normal drop machine they would break.

Do I need a water connection?

No, our cold-drink machines are filled with ready-made bottles. Only coffee machines need water.

How loud is the machine?

Modern units are very quiet (about 50dB), comparable to a household fridge.

Which payment methods does a drinks machine support?

NFC, Apple Pay, Google Pay, girocard and credit card are standard on every vyndo drinks machine, cash (coins, notes) is optional. Drinks are the highest-frequency category in vending. At fitness studios, production halls or running routes, the customer buys spontaneously in passing. Anyone who first has to search for change often does not buy at all. Cashless is therefore not an extra but the revenue lever: every machine with a payment function is TSE-compliant under the KassenSichV anyway. On request we integrate RFID cards for employee badges, for example for subsidised prices at the workplace.

How many drinks fit inside?

Depending on the model, between 250 and 600 bottles/cans.

Are drinks machines winter-proof?

Yes, for outdoor use we retrofit a heater so that cans and bottles do not freeze and burst in winter. The interior stays frost-free (usually above 4 °C), and sales run reliably even in sub-zero temperatures. With drinks this is decisive, because frozen PET bottles burst and carbonated goods take damage. Combined with impact-resistant safety glass and an anti-graffiti coating, the machine is thus suited to parks, running routes and public spaces. The telemetry monitors the interior temperature continuously and reports deviations before goods take damage.
