After Hours: The First Digital Vending Machine Designed for Nightlife
Hindsight is obvious: thousands of everyday essentials are selling like crazy in convenience stores, airports, and campuses. Disposable cameras, condoms, lip balm, hand sanitizer, energy shots, hangover aids, electrolyte packs, OTC pain relievers, phone chargers, and even intimacy enhancers all fall into one of three categories: high demand, high impulse, or late-night essentials.
So here’s the million (or billion) dollar question: if these products are so popular, why aren’t they sold in bars and clubs?
The answer is After Hours – the first digital vending machine designed exclusively for nightlife. These kiosks let venues turn downtime into dollars while maximizing guest experience.

AFTER HOURS Vending – FAQs
What’s the big opportunity with nightlife vending?
Thousands of everyday essentials already sell like crazy in convenience stores, airports, and campuses. Products like disposable cameras, condoms, lip balm, hand sanitizer, energy shots, hangover aids, electrolyte packs, OTC pain relievers, phone chargers, and even intimacy enhancers all thrive because they fall into one of three categories: high demand, high impulse, or late-night essentials.
The overlooked market? Bars, nightclubs, college venues, and lounges. That’s where AFTER HOURS comes in.
What is AFTER HOURS?
AFTER HOURS is the first digital vending machine designed exclusively for nightlife. These compact, stylish kiosks let venues turn downtime into dollars while improving the guest experience.
Why should I choose AFTER HOURS instead of vape vending?

Easy Placement – No age restrictions, ideal for nightlife venues.
-
High Margin & High Demand – Low cost of goods with strong perceived value.

How do venues benefit?

New Revenue Stream: Owners of AFTER HOURS machines typically pay 10–20% of the revenue back to the venue as commission.
-
Improved Guest Experience: Guests get access to last-minute essentials without leaving the venue.
-
Zero Overhead: No staffing or stocking by the venue — everything is handled by the machine operator.
Do I need to pay sales tax on the products I buy for the machine?
No. You don’t pay sales tax upfront on the products when you stock your AFTER HOURS machine. Instead, you fill out a tax-exempt form with VapeTM since you are purchasing the products for resale.
As the operator, you are responsible for collecting and remitting sales tax to your local state taxation department monthly based on your vending machine sales.
What’s the typical revenue for an AFTER HOURS machine?
Revenue varies by location, but venues with a young crowd and strong foot traffic typically generate over $1,200 per month in sales.
Actual performance depends on factors such as:
-
Venue size and weekly traffic
-
Nightlife demographics (college bars, clubs, lounges)
-
Product mix and placement inside the venue
