Experiential vending machines offer a unique way for brands, companies, agencies, and other entities to engage with their audience in a meaningful way. They provide an interactive, in-person activation that not only promotes your brand but also facilitates activities such as data collection, surveys, quizzes, games, app downloads, social media engagement, and more.
A key advantage of digital experiential vending machines is their flexibility. Many clients assume that a customized machine must be purchased, but this is not the case. Approximately 60% of our customers choose to rent these machines for specific events or timeframes, ranging from just one day to up to 12 months.
Rental pricing varies based on factors such as the type of machine, quantity, and rental duration. You might wonder if a rented vending machine can still be customized for your brand. The answer is absolutely yes! Whether you’re renting or purchasing from Innovative Vending Solutions, each machine is fully customized with a graphic wrap, touchscreen, custom software, user interface, and internal product configuration.
We often work with clients who have specific needs or custom build requests, sometimes based on detailed renderings they provide. These customizations, which might include unique doors, flashing lights, music, or haptic feedback, can often be rented, though many clients choose to purchase these specialized machines.
While there are many options for custom experiential vending machines and event rentals, we encourage you to do your due diligence. Innovative Vending Solutions (IVS) is a pioneer in the field, having been the first company to offer experiential vending machine rentals since 2008. With over 16 years of experience, we have refined our approach to both a science and an art.
To understand why IVS stands out from competitors, we invite you to read our Google reviews, which provide genuine feedback from our customers. We also recommend checking reviews of other companies to see if they provide detailed information about their machines and events.
