What the free coffee vending machine program includes
Everything needed to get a coffee vending machine working on your site is covered. You provide the floor space and a power point; we provide the machine and the ongoing service.
A free coffee machine gives your site cafe-quality hot drinks with no capital outlay. We handle descaling, brewer servicing, bean supply and cup supply as part of the program.
- Machine supply, delivery and installation at no cost
- Restocking scheduled from real sales data, not a fixed roster
- Breakdown attendance, parts and preventative servicing included
- Cash, card and mobile payment acceptance fitted as standard
- No contract, no rental and no minimum term — the machine can be removed on request
Products your free coffee vending machine can stock
A free coffee vending machine is loaded with espresso, flat white, cappuccino, latte, long black, hot chocolate, mocha and tea. Before the machine goes in we run a short planogram consultation so the selections match what your people actually buy.
The range is reviewed after the first few restocks. Slow lines are swapped out, popular lines get more facings, and you can request healthier options or remove specific products at any time.
Where free coffee vending machines work best
This machine suits offices, reception areas, hospitals, dealerships, hotels and shift-based workplaces that run around the clock. Capacity is bean-to-cup brewers holding 2 to 4 kg of beans and 400 to 600 cups between refills.
If your site is smaller or the traffic is seasonal, we may recommend a different machine or a combination unit instead. We would rather place the right machine than pull an underperforming one out three months later.

Frequently asked questions
Is a free vending machine really free?
Yes. There is no purchase price, no rental, no service fee and no lock-in contract. We own the machine, deliver it, install it, stock it and service it. Our return comes from the products sold, so staff simply pay normal retail prices at the machine.
How long does installation take?
Most installations are completed in under an hour once the site is approved. You need a standard 10 amp power point within about two metres and a level floor with clear access.
Who restocks and repairs the machine?
We do. Restocking frequency is based on your machine's telemetry and sales history, and breakdown attendance is included at no cost to the site.
Does the coffee machine need plumbing?
Not always. Plumbed machines are best for high volume sites, but bottle-fed models only need a power point, which suits leased tenancies where you cannot alter the plumbing.
Fresh milk or powdered milk?
Fresh milk models produce a noticeably better flat white and are preferred in offices. Granulated milk machines are more forgiving in remote or unattended sites because there is nothing to spoil.
