‍

Can You Purchase a Low-Cost Champagne Vending Machine?

‍

Luckily, low-cost champagne vending machine does exist. They are essentially modified drink machines and are not offered by a specific champagne brand. Instead, the vending owner can purchase any brand of champagne to stock their machine. On average, these machines will be sold for $2000 to $3000.

Another option is to order a custom vending machine. It will be a bit pricier option compared to these modified machines, but they will sure be a lot more affordable compared to original champagne machines.

‍

How Much Is the Champagne Vending Machine?

‍

The Moët & Chandon champagne vending machine is quite pricey at $35,000. In addition to the purchase price, you’ll also have to consider the expenses associated with stocking the machine ($3000 to $5000), associated prices for shipping and installing the machine, and any maintenance it will require going forward.

‍

‍

How Does the Moet Vending Machine Work?

‍

The Moët & Chandon vending machine does not dispense products like a typical vending machine. Rather than paying for the bottles at the machine, customers must purchase a gold coin from the hotel’s front desk or other location. Prices for the gold coins will vary depending on the location and the contents.

‍

The gold coin will be used to operate the vending machine rather than standard payment methods. Once you insert the coin, you just push the button that corresponds to the type of champagne you want (Imperial Brut or Imperial Rosé), and in just a few seconds you’ll have a delightful mini Imperial Brut champagne in your hand.

‍

You can drink the champagne straight from the bottle to enjoy some extra fizz or make use of the complimentary flute that is also dispensed for a more elegant experience.
