Vending Machine Commission Agreements — What Site Owners Should Know

The three models 1. **Full-service (no cost, no commission)** — operator supplies, stocks, services. Site gets a free machine, no revenue share. Most common for small–medium sites. 2. **Commission split** — site gets 5–15% of gross sales. Common for high-traffic sites (universities, hospitals, large gyms) where volume justifies a cut. 3. **Rent model** — site charges a fixed monthly rent. Rare, but works for premium locations (airports, major shopping centres).

What's a fair split? - **Under $500/month gross:** no commission — the operator's margin doesn't support it. - **$500–$1,500/month:** 5–10% commission is reasonable. - **$1,500+/month:** 10–15%, sometimes tiered.

GST and invoicing Commission is GST-inclusive; the operator issues a Recipient-Created Tax Invoice (RCTI) monthly. Site owner must be GST-registered to claim.
