Pricing and Warranty Information


  • Pricing is dependent on the type of machine you are locating. The reason prices are different is due to the level of difficulty in placing each machine.
  • To see location prices for your machine select your machine type on our home page.
  • On the check out page we offer an option to upgrade to Restaurants and Bars Only for an additional $10 per location. This is an option and not required. Some of our clients prefer to have only restaurants and bars due to the limited product options they offer.
  • The high quality of locations is the same for our Platinum, Gold and Silver Packages. The only difference is the warranty that comes with the locations.
  • Our Platinum and Gold packages allow you to order replacement locations for $20 each for two years from the date your initial location is found. Replacement locations come with a 90 day kick out warranty. You may order an unlimited number of replacement locations for $20 each, however, you must remove the machine from its previous location prior to ordering a $20 replacement. $20 replacement locations can be ordered if the location isn't performing or if for any reason you need or want to remove the machine from a particular business.

Signing up with a Charity

Signing up with a charity will enable you to get into bigger and better locations without paying a commission to the business owner. Most charities will give you a sticker to put on your machine. This shows that you support the charity.

We suggest the National Children’s Cancer Society Vending Program. The National Children’s Cancer Society charges $1 per month for each sticker. You need one sticker per machine.

How we Find Locations

We maintain a dedicated telephone sales staff of over 20 highly qualified individuals that secure your locations for you. Once we find a location it will be automatically emailed to you. Then all you need to do is drop the machine off. We will provide you with all of the contact information including the managers or owners name and phone number.

What to Say and Do when you Drop a Machine Off

  1. Introduce yourself and ask for the contact person whom we spoke with.
  2. Let the contact person know what charity you are with.
  3. Ask the contact person where she/he would like you to place your machine. If you see a good spot it is ok to make a suggestion.
  4. Leave the contact person with your business card or make sure that your contact information is on the machine.


Right of Refusal

 

If you visit a location we provide you and you feel that it is not a good fit for your machine then you are not required to place a machine in this location. In locator terms this is called the right of refusal. When you hire a locating company you want to ensure that you are able to refuse a location. Finding you the best locations is our job. However, we understand that sometimes you may prefer not to place a machine in every location we provide.

 

Why do we have the best right of refusal in the business? Our right of refusal works for you on two levels. First, you will be able to see the entire lead list of businesses on our website before we ever make a single call. If there are any businesses that are too far away or in bad areas you can simply click the remove button and we will not call that business. Second, if we secure a location on the list that you dislike you still have the opportunity to turn it down. This offers you 100% protection to make sure you’re getting the best locations.
