The flexible alternative to buying

Buying outright isn't always the best option. When you rent a vending machine, you stay financially flexible and tie up no capital. That is especially attractive for start-ups, temporary locations or companies that want to test a location's potential first. With vyndo you get access to the latest vending technology including digital signage features, without a high upfront investment. Our rental model is transparent and often already includes key services, so you can focus fully on your core business. The German vending market is growing to USD 2.9 billion by 2033 (CAGR 5.1%). Smart vending with IoT and touchscreen is growing by more than 13% per year. In simple terms, one machine replaces 4–5 full-time staff.

Why renting pays off for you

No high investment

Protect your cash flow (CAPEX). You pay a predictable monthly rate instead of a large purchase sum.

Ideal for test phases

Try out locations or product ideas at no risk. If it doesn't work, return the machine.

Service included

Maintenance and technical support are already part of many rental packages. No stress when something fails.

Tax advantages

Rental rates are usually fully and immediately deductible as operating expenses (OPEX).

Technology update

Stay current. At the end of the term you can often simply upgrade to the newest model.

Short-term rental possible

Perfect for trade fairs, festivals or seasonal pop-up stores. Rent only for as long as you need the machine.

Rental models for every need

We offer different rental options tailored to your needs. From short-term rental (from a few days for events) to long-term rental (24–48 months) for permanent operation. Our rental fleet includes snack vending machines, drinks vending machines and specialised non-food machines. All units are checked, cleaned and, on request, fitted with your branding before delivery. The model works as Hardware-as-a-Service (HaaS): you rent the technology, stock it yourself and keep 100% of the sales margin.

Where rental machines are used

Trade fairs & roadshows

An exhibitor uses a rented vyndo machine as a 'goodie machine'. Visitors receive a free promotional gift in exchange for their business card or a QR-code scan. That boosts lead generation and draws attention to the stand.

Construction sites & temporary projects

A construction company rents rugged outdoor machines for the duration of a major project (12 months) to supply the workers. After the project ends, the machines are simply collected again, with no storage effort and no resale hassle.

Market test for start-ups

A food start-up wants to test whether its healthy snacks sell in gyms. Instead of buying 50 machines, they first rent 5 units for 6 months. Based on the real sales data, they then decide on the roll-out.

Renting a vending machine: contract types and terms

When renting vending machines, it is important to understand the difference between pure rental, leasing and hire purchase. With classic rental (operating lease), use is the focus. You don't become the owner; you pay for the machine to be provided. That is ideal if you want to 'use technology, not own it'. Our rental contracts are transparent. There are no hidden costs. The monthly rate depends on the model, the equipment (for example with or without touchscreen/digital signage) and the term. One important aspect is 'delivery, setup and support rental'. Here vyndo or our service partners handle technical faults. You only need to take care of restocking the goods. For event organisers we offer special 'event packages'. These include delivery, setup, briefing and dismantling at a fixed price. That gives you full cost certainty for your event. TSE-compliant under the KassenSichV, mandatory for all machines with a payment function since 2020.

Purchase option at the end of the term

Customers often fall for how simple our systems are. That is why, with long-term rentals, we frequently offer the option to take over the machine at its residual value at the end of the term. So you keep all your flexibility.

Requirements for renting

Because we provide high-quality technology, a positive credit check is a requirement for the rental contract with commercial customers. For start-ups we often find individual solutions, for example through a higher deposit or shorter terms.

Frequently asked questions about renting machines

How high are the monthly rental costs?

That depends heavily on the model and the term. Simple models start in the low three-digit range; high-end solutions with touchscreens are higher. Contact us for a quote.

Is a deposit due?

Yes, as a rule we charge a security deposit, which you get back immediately once the machine is returned in good condition.

Who stocks the machine?

Stocking (operating) is usually handled by you as the renter. In return, you also keep 100% of the revenue from the goods sold.

Can I terminate the rental contract early?

For long-term rentals, fixed terms apply. For flexible models there are notice periods, which are transparently set out in the contract.

Are the machines insured?

The renter is usually responsible for insuring the machine against theft and vandalism (for example through their business contents insurance).

Can I wrap the machine with my own design?

Yes, branding is possible on rental machines too. The film simply has to be professionally removed on return (or we do it for a fee).

How quickly can a rental machine be delivered?

Standard models from our rental pool are often available immediately and ready to ship at short notice. We give you the exact delivery time on request.
