How vending machine placement works

Four steps from application to first payout

Here is how vending machine placement works with STASH. You apply, and we do the rest: find the spot, choose the products, install and run the machine, and pay you 10% of net sales every month.

Before step one

First, you apply

Tell us about your property on the host form. It takes a couple of minutes, and we reply within one business day.

The four steps

Then we do the rest

  1. 01

    We find the right spot

    We walk your property and pick a high-traffic location that works for your space. It needs a wall or a corner, a standard power outlet, Wi-Fi and access for servicing.

  2. 02

    We curate the products

    Trading cards, electronics, everyday essentials or a mix, chosen for your location and the people who use it. You can request products, and we adjust the mix to what sells.

  3. 03

    We install & operate

    STASH handles installation, stocking, monitoring, maintenance and support. Customers with a problem scan the code on the machine and reach us, not you.

  4. 04

    You get paid

    Your property receives 10% of net sales every month. You choose how you're paid, and you can request a sales report.
