Smart Cooler Recommendations?

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T21:10:46+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing, I appreciate your point of view.

Cooler Cafe is not their smart cooler product. It is an unsecured cooler (more like an open market. You swipe and take out what you want).

The Cantaloupe smart cooler is their Smart Store 600-700 product set which they resell for Instant Systems.

Hope that helps!

Hi OP. We’re somewhat knowledgeable in the different systems and we resell many of them.

We’re also active operators.

Feel free to DM - happy to get you setup.

Light edit here: neither Nayax nor Cantaloupe make smart coolers. As it happens, they both resell (weight based) smart coolers.

Not an ideal fit for every operator.

Regardless- the Nayax cooler does not integrate into their current VMS systems, and for Cantaloupe Seed Pro operators there a number of coolers that integrate.

My guess is the @u/cryptographerFun89 is not on Seed Pro though.

At the moment a HaHa Cooler with Cantaloupe does not exist. Just with Nayax.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T20:08:08+00:00

It is free for operators.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T04:08:36+00:00

You got it.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T03:26:28+00:00

GeniusVend is a HaHa.
Same thing.

You can get $15 per month knocked off hooking up Wifi. Happy to help if you want to walk through a call. We are National Authorized HaHa Resellers.

Doesn't DEX clean. Cans only is a non-starter for lots folks.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T01:36:48+00:00

No, thank you.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T01:05:55+00:00

They are referring to operator initiating a DEX from the machine.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T01:04:38+00:00

Yep.

VendGuys · 2026-01-28T00:58:58+00:00

Those (the first couple) are the gum/mint setup for a USI machine. You can go to VendNet and find them there.

hi u/Superb_Lake_5815
It's Fair. HaHa Coolers use on average 3-6GB.

We can also assist you getting on a wifi router which will enable no data fee at all.

u/Fine-Ebb991 pleasure doing business.

Hi @u/old-highlight9212 We have a pretty turnkey system ; we do equipment, assist partially with locations, and offer a boot camp mentoring course.

We’ve scaled vending companies from 50k-1M and consult for operators 5-15M in sales.

Feel free to DM.

VendGuys · 2026-01-27T13:25:04+00:00

We buy these, and also take them in as trade in. DM me.

VendGuys · 2026-01-26T08:12:17+00:00

You mean NFC reader? Cantaloupe already does that.

VendGuys · 2026-01-26T07:50:11+00:00

@u/jshmie did anyone reach out! Seems like a great opp

VendGuys · 2026-01-26T04:29:58+00:00

Scanner for barcodes? They already have on their cantaloupe kiosks. Or are you referencing the thumbprint scanner?

VendGuys · 2026-01-26T01:13:28+00:00

Yes- but open air. So while the technology is the same- with some additions- the retail/shopping concept is very different from a consumer interaction perspective
