Combo Machine: Snacks and Drinks from One Device

Why set up two machines when one is enough? Our combo machines bring together the best of both worlds: cold drinks below, tasty snacks above. Space-saving, energy-efficient and strong on revenue.

The Space-Saving 2-in-1 Solution

Not every location has room for a whole vending wall. A combo machine is the ideal solution for locations with limited space but varied needs. On less than one square meter you offer a full range: chocolate bars, crisps, sandwiches, PET bottles and cans. Our flexible zone system makes that possible. The upper levels are configured for snacks (spirals), the lower levels are reinforced and chilled for drinks. That saves not only purchase costs but also halves power consumption compared with two separate devices.

Features of Our Combo Machines

Dual Temperature Zones

Different temperatures in the device: 4-6C below for drinks/fresh goods, 12-14C above for chocolate (so it does not bloom white).

Everything on 1m

Maximum revenue density on a minimal footprint. Perfect for small waiting rooms or tea kitchens.

Container Flexibility

Sell cans, bottles, bags and bars in a single purchase (basket function).

Energy Efficiency

Modern insulation and LED lighting keep running costs low despite cooling.

Smart Payment

Contactless payment via card or phone is standard. That raises the average ticket on "snack + drink" purchases.

Soft-Drop System

So drinks do not get shaken and snacks do not break, we use lift systems for safe dispensing.

Technical Details & Configuration

A typical combo machine has 6 levels. Levels 1-3: snacks (about 15-20 choices). Levels 4-6: drinks (about 18-24 choices). Capacity is often 300-400 products in total. Thanks to telemetry you always see exactly whether the cola or the Snickers is running out. The spirals are tool-free adjustable. If you want to sell more drinks in summer, you simply swap a snack level for a drinks level. 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 income stream that refinances your payment (DOOH revenue).

Places to Use Combo Devices

Office Floors

The perfect break companion. A bar against the afternoon slump, a water for concentration.

Hotel Lobbies

At night, when the bar is closed, guests find everything they need here. From the toothbrush to the nightcap.

Gyms

Protein bar above, isotonic drink below. The perfect combination for athletes before or after training.

Is a Combo Machine Worth It?

Yes, absolutely. It is the entry point into the vending world. The purchase cost is a little above a pure snack machine, but well below two separate machines. Through cross-selling (customers often buy both together), revenue per head rises. TSE-compliant under KassenSichV, required for all machines with a payment function since 2020.

Product Requirements and Temperature

For combo (snacks + drinks) there are specific requirements for storage and dispensing. Temperature: dual zone: room temperature above, chilled below. Space-saving: one device instead of two, separate climate zones. Our software monitors the conditions continuously and stops sales automatically if limits are exceeded. That protects goods and customers.

Financing Your Combo (Snacks + Drinks) Machine

You have three options: purchase (4,000-10,000 EUR), rental from a one-day term or leasing from 99 EUR/month. With leasing the machine ideally finances itself from the running income. The payments are tax-deductible as operating expenses. With rental, maintenance is often included, ideal for getting started or for trial phases.

Common Questions About Combo Machines

How cold are the snacks?

Thanks to 2-zone cooling, snacks are not kept "ice cold" but pleasantly cool, while drinks are properly cold.

Can fresh sandwiches go in too?

Yes, in the lower, colder area (fresh zone) you can also sell filled rolls or yoghurt (observe HACCP).

How often does it need cleaning?

As with any food machine: regular visual cleaning and hygiene checks are required, but quickly done.

Do 0.5l bottles fit in too?

Yes, that is the standard. 0.33l cans also fit perfectly. 1.0l bottles are usually too large for combos.

Which payment methods does a combo machine support?

NFC, Apple Pay, Google Pay, debit card and credit card are standard, cash is optional. On a combo machine, cashless pays off twice: customers often buy a snack and a drink together, and a single contactless payment for the full basket noticeably raises the average ticket. If the customer has to search for small change twice for two products, it stays a single purchase. The machine is TSE-compliant under KassenSichV, as required for every device with a payment function. On request we integrate RFID cards for staff badges, for example for subsidized prices in an office or plant.

Is it loud?

No, modern compressors are very quiet and office-friendly.

Can I wrap a combo machine with my branding?

Yes, the side panels and the lower section offer space for a custom wrap in your corporate design. That turns the device into a brand carrier instead of a neutral metal box, which works especially in hotel lobbies, office floors and gyms. On the 43-55" touchscreen you additionally show your own content: offers, cross-selling suggestions or company news. Because the combo machine bundles a full range of snacks and drinks in under one square meter, you see your branding at a high-traffic point. We agree the design with you before delivery.
