With cashless payment systems becoming the standard, credit card readers are becoming an asset to any vending machine. Customers can pay with their cell phones and more and more are doing so. USA Technologies, the leading developer in cashless systems, reports credit card payments increase average vending machine sales by 30 percent over cash, with another 15 percent boost from mobile payment apps. The credit card reader has more than proven itself to be a worthy investment among vending franchises.
So how does a vending machine business owner decide which credit card reader would be best for their machine? We have provided a comparison of the three major companies in cashless devices which we deal with.

However, in calling to do research for this article, I received a quick response to my phone call and the sales person who responded was very knowledgeable and helpful. Hopefully this signals a turnaround in their customer service response. Customers needing to set up accounts or calling in with support issues should receive a higher quality of care from AirVend.
