Two ways to work with us
Own the unit outright, or host it on a managed lease with nothing to pay upfront. Either way, the machine is designed to be a profit centre, never a cost line.
Outright purchase
Buy the unit, own it, and keep every penny of the sales it generates.
- You own the unit from day one
- You keep 100% of the sales profit
- Stock it yourself or ask us to supply it
- QR-code cashless checkout built in
- Real-time stock & sales dashboard
- Bulk pricing for multi-property rollouts
Managed lease
No upfront cost. We fund and own the hardware, you host it and keep the profit above a fixed weekly fee.
- Zero capital outlay
- Fixed, predictable weekly fee
- You keep every penny of profit above that fee
- Vendibar-supplied stock available with zero stock risk
- All maintenance and repairs covered
- Two-year term with free collection at the end
Pilot programme
Prove it in a handful of rooms before committing to a wider rollout.
- 1 to 3 Vendibar units
- Full dashboard access
- Range and pricing guidance
- Real sell-through data from your own rooms
- Direct line to the Vendibar team

Why hotels love Vendibar
Everything that makes the switch easy, profitable, and low-risk for hospitality operators.
Why hotels say yes
“We removed minibars because of the cost and admin.”
Zero upfront cost under the lease model, and zero staff admin beyond a two-minute restock during routine housekeeping.
“We don't want stock risk.”
Vendibar can supply and own all of the stock under the lease model, so the risk never sits with you.
“What if it breaks?”
All maintenance and repairs are covered by Vendibar, with free machine collection at the end of the term.
“Will guests actually use it?”
It's cashless and in-room. No trip to reception, no card details left at the desk, meaning lower friction than a traditional minibar ever was.
“What about group and corporate bookings?”
Units are removable and lockable, so corporate blocks that strip minibars today can instead retain the full ancillary revenue.
