Vending machines have become essential in 2020 during the Coronavirus pandemic, due to their ability to automate product vending. Vending Machines are usually open for business 24-7 and, in most cases, a customer doesn’t need to have physical contact with the machine.
Network non-connection can be an issue with a vending machines ability to be “always open” is the network that it’s connected to, because if the network goes down a customer can’t use their credit, debit, or preferred digital wallet to make their payment and the vending machine will lose money.
With the shutdown of 2G and 3G networks around the world, the big question is what’s the most ideal network for vending operators right now that also offers them the most options for growing their businesses?

A dual cashless payment system for vending is being deployed by
Vagabond
. The system allows operators to simultaneously offer vīv mobile cashless and traditional swipe card readers and potentially expand further into touchless vending. The innovation is available on all machines with control boards that offer dual cashless capabilities.
According to Vagabond, the innovation means operators can now add vīv #TrulyTouchless capabilities onto any compatible vending machine alongside their traditional swipe reader and deliver data to any VMS, including Vagabond, VendSys, Parlevel, Cantaloupe or Streamware, limiting the impact to their business operations. This enables operators to allow consumers to choose how they pay for products and, as more users utilize vīv, begin engaging directly with consumers through the vīv consumer marketing engine.
Operators can now satisfy demand from accounts for touchless payment options without having to remove the credit card reader. With vīv, operators can run their business on live data, price to the penny, change prices remotely, dynamically schedule price reductions to drive sales during slow times, sponsor high-margin, high-rebate products to the top of the menu regardless of where they are placed physically in the machine, and directly invite consumers to return to use the machine or kiosk-less market.
