Vending machine leasing

Leasing is a financing model in which the customer (lessee) receives the right to use a vending machine for a fixed period in return for a monthly fee. At the end of the term, the unit can usually be taken over, returned or exchanged for a new model.

Function and area of use

Leasing is the preferred form of financing, especially for B2B customers and established companies. The lease payments are also tax-deductible as business expenses.

In the vending industry, leasing is often used to stay technologically up to date. After a term of usually 36 or 48 months, many operators exchange their units for the latest generation with more efficient cooling or better touchscreens.

VendSpot arranges leasing on request through partner leasing companies. A 50% down payment is always required.

Technical details

Lease agreements are usually handled by specialised leasing companies. The instalments are calculated from the acquisition value, the term and the calculated residual value of the vending machine.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between renting and leasing?

Renting is usually shorter-term and more flexible, while leasing is designed for a longer term and often offers tax and balance sheet advantages for businesses.

Can I also lease the payment systems?

Whether payment systems and accessories can be included in the lease agreement is clarified with the leasing company on a case-by-case basis.
