DrylineVMS Pro is not a store item: Core customers upgrade the whole organization from inside the app.
One reader records the whole story of a vend.
The reader connects to the machine’s MDB bus through the DejaUP interface and takes cards alongside the coin and bill acceptors already there.
- Works with most machines that support MDB cashless
- Wi-Fi and cellular with a SIM included
Every card vend is tied to a product.
This is what the reader produces on the other end. In Pro, those same sales are what AI Planogram Assist plans a machine from.
- Card vends tied to the selection and product
- Automatic DEX reads for reconciliation
- Sales by day, top machines, top products
- CSV and NAMA VDI 2.0 export
Questions about the reader
- Is my machine compatible?
- Almost certainly. Most vending machines built in the last couple of decades support MDB cashless. The only machines the reader cannot serve are ones that do not, and they have no retrofit.
- What is included with the reader?
- The reader itself, a SIM for cellular connectivity, Rain Pay card processing, and DrylineVMS Core for that machine at $14.95 per month, which is added to the order automatically.
- Can I use my own payment processor?
- No. Rain Pay processing is part of the solution: it is what ties every card vend to the product in the slot and feeds reconciliation. The rate is 5.95% per card sale.
- Will taking cards raise my sales?
- Operators who add card readers report higher sales. In a study of 250,000 machines with card readers, run by a card reader maker with Michigan State University, sales grew 35% on average over 18 months, and cash sales on those machines grew 17%. The guide to adding a card reader lists more figures with their sources.
