Multi-unit vending machine installation managed by one cloud platform
Platform overview

Smart Retail Software

A vending route is a data business with a hardware layer. The platform tracks sales and stock per slot, temperature per cabinet, and fault codes per machine; it also pushes planogram changes, prices and advertising content to the terminal. Operators use a PC dashboard for planning and a mobile app for route work.

Offline sales continue when connectivity drops, and transactions sync when the link returns. Remote temperature setting, inventory thresholds and advertisement scheduling reduce site visits. Self-diagnostic alerts cover stockouts, delivery failures and refund requests so the route team can respond before the customer complains.

The software is offered with VendHarbor hardware and can be integrated with third-party payment, loyalty and ERP systems through API. For operators who already run a platform, we expose machine events and accept remote commands rather than forcing a second dashboard.

Buying questions

Is the software included with the machine?
A base account is included with VendHarbor hardware. Multi-site features, custom reports and third-party integrations are quoted separately.
Can we use our own payment provider?
Yes. Payment modules and gateway integrations are selected per market; the terminal supports card, QR, coin and note options depending on the configuration.
What happens to sales data when the network is down?
Transactions are stored locally and synchronized when the connection returns. The platform flags the gap so reconciliation is not silent.
Can the platform manage machines from different suppliers?
VendHarbor machines are supported natively. Third-party machines require a protocol or API integration, assessed per project.
