The smart alternative: rent instead of buy

Buying a machine does not always pay off straight away. When you rent a drinks machine, you gain maximum flexibility. It is the ideal solution for companies that want to supply staff and customers without worrying about technology or depreciation. Our rental models often already include technical service. If the machine breaks down, vyndo takes care of it. You pay a fixed monthly rate that takes effect immediately for tax purposes (OPEX), and keep your liquidity for the core business.

An overview of our rental models

We offer flexible terms from one day (for events) up to 48 months (long-term rental). For offices and law firms, our "table-top" or compact floor-standing units are popular. For production halls and public areas, we recommend rugged glass-front machines with high capacity. All rental units are professionally cleaned before delivery, tested (DGUV V3) and set for your chosen products (cans, PET, glass).

Where rental units are used

Trade fairs & events

A trade fair organiser rents 10 drinks machines for 3 days to supply visitors in the halls. The devices are delivered, set up and then collected again.

Construction site supply

A construction group rents rugged machines for the duration of a major project (18 months) for the container villages. The workers have 24/7 access to water and energy drinks.

Office supply

A start-up rents a design machine for the lounge. The takings cover the rental rate, and the staff enjoy subsidised Club-Mate and water.

Rent a drinks machine: the small print

Transparency matters to us. The rental rate depends on the term and device value; rentals start from one day. On top comes a one-time flat fee for delivery and collection. One important point is filling: with standard rental, you fill the device yourself and keep 100% of the revenue. That is usually the most economical option. Alternatively, in metropolitan areas we can also arrange a filling service through a provider. Then you have no effort at all, but usually receive only a small standing fee or commission.

Advertising on the rental device

Rental devices earn money too. Every vyndo drinks machine has a 43 to 55 inch digital signage screen. In standby, play your own company news or third-party advertising there. This DOOH income can cover your rental rate in full or in part.

Frequent questions about renting a drinks machine

What does a rented drinks machine cost?

Rental is possible from one day; the rate depends on size, equipment and cooling capacity. Leasing is possible from 99 EUR/month, purchase is 3,000 to 8,000 EUR. With rental, maintenance and technical service are usually included: if the machine breaks down, vyndo takes care of it. Drinks are the highest-frequency category in vending, so a rented drinks machine pays off quickly at good locations. You tie up no capital, pay predictable monthly rates (OPEX) and keep your liquidity.

Which products fit in a rented drinks machine?

Typical products: soft drinks, water, juices, energy drinks. The compartments can be configured flexibly. For special requirements we advise you individually.

What temperature does the drinks machine hold?

Refrigerated (3 to 7 C). Our software monitors the temperature continuously and logs the values for your documentation.

How high is the margin on a rented drinks machine?

Depending on the range and location, the gross margin is 45 to 60%. At high-traffic locations the machine pays for itself in 6 to 12 months.

Which payment methods does the rented drinks machine support?

NFC, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Girocard and credit card are standard, cash (coins, notes) is optional to add. On request we integrate RFID cards for staff badges. With drinks as a spontaneous impulse buy, cashless is the revenue lever: someone who first has to search for change often does not buy at all. The rental device is also TSE-compliant under KassenSichV, the technical security device is mandatory for every machine with a payment function. All revenue flows transparently into your telemetry app, and you see per payment method and product what was sold.

Do I need a special permit for a drinks machine?

On private property you usually need no permit, on public ground a special-use permit from the responsible city administration is required. With drinks, HACCP hygiene rules also apply as soon as perishable or refrigerated goods are involved, such as fresh drinks. For a rented drinks machine, this is often more relaxed: many rental customers set the device up on their own business premises, in offices or halls, where no special use applies. If you use the device only temporarily for an event, you usually clarify the space through the organiser. We are happy to advise on the specific implementation at your site, but the legal check is down to you.

How do I monitor the rented drinks machine remotely?

Through the telemetry software you see stock levels, revenue and device status in real time on your smartphone or desktop. With drinks this is especially relevant: you spot early which product is running low and only drive out to refill when it is worthwhile. This saves trips and prevents empty machines at high-frequency locations. Faults such as a temperature rise or a coin jam are reported at once, often before the customer notices anything. We install software updates over the air (OTA), so no on-site visit is needed. In the rental model, this service is usually included.
