How it works

Four steps. About five seconds.

No cashier, no app and no line. The cooler sees what you take and bills only that.

  1. 01

    Tap to unlock

    Hold a card, phone or watch to the reader. The door unlocks once the payment method is approved.

  2. 02

    Take what you want

    Grab one item or several. Put something back before closing and it won't be charged.

  3. 03

    Shut the door

    It locks again automatically. No buttons, no codes and no line.

  4. 04

    Pay automatically

    The cameras confirm what left and your card is charged for only those items, usually within a minute.

    Nobody opens the door without an approved card or phone.

  • Every item tied to a card

    Each purchase is linked to the card that unlocked it.

  • AI cameras on every shelf

    The cameras see what's taken and what's returned, with about 99% accuracy.

  • Every opening is recorded

    Video of each visit makes any question about a charge quick to answer.

  • No cash inside

    There's no coin box or bill changer for anyone to break into.

  • Monitored by VendGO

    We watch sales, stock and temperature live and get alerts right away.

Common questions about ai smart coolers

Still have a question? Call 678-848-5199 and we'll answer it.

How does an AI smart cooler work?

Tap a card or phone to unlock the door, take what you want and close it. Cameras inside see exactly what was removed and your card is charged automatically, usually within a minute.

Is there a risk of theft?

Very little. The door stays locked until a card or phone is approved, every item is tied to that card, each opening is recorded on video, and there's no cash inside.

What if I put an item back?

You aren't charged for it. The cameras track items returned before the door closes.

Does it take cash or coins?

No. It's fully cashless: credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay.

Does it need our Wi-Fi?

No. Each cooler has its own cellular connection, so it never touches your network.

What do you need from us?

About three feet of floor space and a standard outlet. VendGO handles delivery, installation, stocking and service.

Why do I see a pending charge?

Your bank may show a temporary hold when you tap to open the door. It's replaced by the real total for what you took.

How do I get a receipt?

Scan the QR code on the door, or call your account manager and we'll look up the visit.

What can go inside?

Drinks, snacks, sandwiches, salads, wraps, protein boxes, yogurt and fruit. Freezer models hold frozen meals and ice cream.

Can the public use it?

Yes. Because it's locked and cashless, it's the right choice for lobbies and spaces open to visitors.

Can it carry our branding?

Yes. Coolers can be wrapped in your logo or colors.

Smart cooler or micro market?

It depends on the space and who uses it. Private breakrooms usually get a micro market. Shared or public spaces get a smart cooler. Many sites use both.

How much does it cost?

Nothing for qualifying locations. We provide the cooler, installation, product, restocking and service.

Grab fast. Eat smart.
