Switching
Move to Dryline without starting over.
Bring your locations, machines, products, and layouts across from an Excel or CSV file. You upload it, match its columns, and check every row in a preview before anything is saved.
Three steps in your own account.
Nothing to rebuild by hand and no one to wait on.
Upload your files
Fill in the Dryline template, or upload the Excel or CSV files your current system exports. Several files go in together.
Match and preview
Dryline matches the columns it recognizes and you correct the rest. The preview lists every row by name as new, already there, changing, or needing a fix.
Turn the readers on and go live
The Rain Pay reader connects over MDB cashless, DrylineVMS Core is added with each reader, and you are live and reconciling from day one.
Bring your data across.
Dryline imports a spreadsheet (the Dryline template, or a report from your current system, in Excel or CSV) or a NAMA VDI 2.0 file, the vending industry’s interchange standard. Here is what each one carries.
| Your data | From a spreadsheet | From VDI 2.0 |
|---|---|---|
Products and catalog Names, prices, cost, barcodes, and categories | Included | Included |
Locations Your venues and their addresses | Included | Included |
Machines Each machine with its make and model | Included | Included |
Planograms Slot-by-slot machine layouts | Included | Included |
Opening stock Current counts per slot as your starting inventory | Included | Included |
Past sales history Stays in your current system; Dryline reporting starts at go-live |
Coming from Nayax, Cantaloupe/Seed, or a spreadsheet?
Export what your system offers to Excel or CSV and upload it as it is. Dryline reads the file’s own column names and remembers how you matched them. Anything it cannot export goes on the Dryline template.
You land in Dryline with everything set up.
Once your data is in, it is the Dryline you saw on the tour, with nothing to rebuild by hand.
- Locations and machines in place
- One product catalog with barcodes and prices
- Machine layouts ready to restock against
- DEX and reconciliation live from go-live
Your data stays yours.
Dryline exports your products, locations, and machines back out as a NAMA VDI 2.0 file or a CSV, the same formats that bring you in. Plans are month to month, with no contract.
Moving from Nayax or Cantaloupe.
Here is what you get when you bring your machines to Dryline.
A reader registered to you
Bought machines with a reader still registered to the previous owner? A Rain Pay reader ships registered to your account, so each machine takes cards on your account from the day it goes in.
US-based support
Dryline VMS is based in Arizona, and so is its support. Call 844-723-9732 or email support@drylinevms.com to reach the team that builds it.
No activation fee
Each reader carries one Dryline license, billed monthly, with nothing to pay to switch it on.

Switching questions
- Do I have to replace my machines?
- No. Dryline works with the machines you run today, provided they support MDB cashless, which most modern machines do. The Rain Pay reader connects over the MDB bus alongside the coin and bill acceptors already there. There is no retrofit for a machine that cannot take MDB cashless.
- What can you bring across from my current system?
- Your locations, machines, products, machine layouts (planograms), and opening stock counts, from an Excel or CSV file or a NAMA VDI 2.0 file.
- Can you import my sales history?
- No. Past sales stay in your current system, and reporting in Dryline starts at go-live.
- My system’s export does not look like your template. Now what?
- Upload it as it is. Dryline reads the file’s own column names, you confirm which is which, and it remembers them for your next upload. Anything your system cannot export goes on the Dryline template.
- Who does the import?
- You do, from the Import / Export page of your Dryline account, with an owner or admin login. Nothing is saved until you have checked the preview. A setup review is there if you would like help.
- How long does switching take?
- It depends on how many machines you run and what your current system can export. You can import in stages: a file uploaded twice never adds anything twice.
- Can I switch from Nayax to Dryline?
- Yes. Export what Nayax offers to Excel or CSV, upload it as it is from your Dryline account, and put a Rain Pay reader on each machine. Your locations, machines, products, and layouts come across.
- Can I switch from Cantaloupe or Seed to Dryline?
- Yes, the same way. Export from Cantaloupe or Seed to Excel or CSV, upload the file as it is, and put a Rain Pay reader on each machine.
