How the Seven Selections Help You Plan a Menu

Seven selections let you offer a clear mix without making the menu hard to manage. Each selection should match the column assignment and pricing programmed into the machine. Product demand varies by site, so start with a simple mix and review it often.

Classic cola

A familiar option that may fit many general-purpose vending locations. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Diet or zero-sugar cola

An alternative for people who prefer no-sugar soda. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Lemon-lime soda

A different flavor profile that adds choice. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Root beer

An optional flavor for locations where customers ask for it. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Orange soda

A bright, sweet option for variety. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Iced tea in a compatible package

Only stock after confirming package size and vending setup. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Sparkling beverage

Choose only products that match the approved can size and machine settings. Do not assume every drink type or package will vend without testing.

Using Multi-Price Controls

Multi-price capability means the operator can set different selling prices for different selections. This can help when drink costs vary. Set prices with your actual purchase cost, location agreement, taxes, payment fees, and service costs in mind.

1. Write down the cost of each drink.
2. Choose a selling price for each selection.
3. Program the prices using the correct machine instructions.
4. Test each selection with accepted payment.
5. Check the display and change payout before opening for sales.

Payment Options: Coins, Bills, and Cashless Upgrades

The listing describes a machine that accepts coins and $1 bills. It also lists MDB and DEX support. MDB is used by compatible vending payment devices. DEX can support data collection when the correct hardware and software are used. These features do not mean that a credit card reader, telemetry service, or remote dashboard is already installed.

For a cashless upgrade, verify the reader model, MDB compatibility, physical mounting location, wiring, cellular signal, payment account, and ongoing service fees. Confirm installation details before ordering any accessory.

Visual Inspection Guide

Suggested product images: Use an actual front photo of the Aquafina graphics, a close-up of the selection panel, a photo of the payment area, and an open-door view of the can columns. Use photos of the machine being sold rather than stock photos when possible.

• Inside view: show columns and service access.
