Expanding Revenue Streams: Why Jukebox and ATM Operators Should Consider Vape Vending Machines

Leveraging Established Relationships for New Revenue

Jukebox operators, ATM ISOs, independent deployers, and other amusement machine operators already have trusted relationships with bar and venue owners—prime locations for vape vending machines. By adding vape vending to their offerings, these operators gain recurring revenue while preventing competitors from gaining access to their clients.

Strengthening Exclusivity and Reducing Competition

In this competitive space, bulk vendors, crane-machine operators, and arcade or gambling machine operators compete with TouchTunes and AMI jukebox operators. Offering vape vending machines increases revenue and solidifies exclusivity in contracted bars and venues. By expanding their equipment portfolio, operators can secure relationships and reduce the risk of other vendors entering these spaces.

Maximizing Revenue in Adult-Only Venues

Adult-only venues like bars and nightclubs cater to customers who are likely to buy vape products. Adding vape machines boosts profitability by aligning with customer interests. The high markup on vapes makes each sale impactful, delivering fast ROI for jukebox and ATM operators already serving these locations.

Offering Additional Value to Venue Owners

TouchTunes and AMI operators can enhance their value by adding vape vending machines, providing a convenient, one-stop solution for entertainment and vape products. This strengthens operator roles within venues and fosters loyalty with bar owners.

Easy Compliance with Advanced Age Verification

Vape vending machines include age-verification technology, ensuring compliance with laws on selling nicotine products to minors. Operators can manage inventory, pricing, and sales tracking easily, making these machines straightforward to operate for those familiar with tech-driven equipment like TouchTunes or AMI jukeboxes.

Practical Benefits of Vape Vending Machines

Minimal Space, High Return

Wall-mounted vape vending machines are compact, space-efficient, and cost-effective. They fit seamlessly into existing layouts and require minimal maintenance, similar to a jukebox. Operators can purchase spare parts and wholesale vapes directly to streamline the process.

Improved Customer Experience and Convenience

For patrons who vape, on-site access to vaping products adds convenience and value to their visit, increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty. This added service makes bars more attractive and helps them stand out in a competitive market.

Cross-Promotion Opportunities

A vape vending machine allows for new promotions, like offering jukebox credits with vape purchases. This interactive approach encourages customers to engage more with both services, increasing overall spending.

Streamlined Operations

For bar owners familiar with electronic machines, vape vending machines are straightforward to integrate, with vendors often providing full-service options for restocking and maintenance. If preferred, operators can handle restocking and cleaning directly, as maintenance is minimal.

A Competitive Edge in the Nightlife Market

In a competitive nightlife industry, offering unique amenities like vape vending alongside a jukebox helps bars attract more customers. Vape vending machines are still emerging, but early adopters can position themselves as trendsetters. VapeTM, for example, makes it simple to install, supply, and manage these machines.

Summary: A Strategic and Lucrative Opportunity

Combining vape vending with jukebox or ATM services is a smart move that enhances revenue, customer satisfaction, and competitive standing. It meets modern consumer demands without straining operations, creating a synergy that benefits both the operator and the venue.  AMOA Operators should strongly consider adding a VTM product line.
