Smart Technology
The Technology That Powers Your Perfect Breakroom
At CPS Markets and Vending, we leverage a fully integrated technology platform to deliver a refreshment service that is more reliable, convenient, and data-driven than ever before. We strategically invest in the industry’s most advanced hardware and software to solve the real-world problems that matter to you and your employees.
From the moment an employee pays for a snack to the way we optimize our delivery routes, every step is powered by smart technology. This commitment ensures maximum uptime for our machines, a superior selection of products, and a completely seamless and hassle-free partnership for you.
The Brains of the Operation: Seed Software
The core of our operational excellence lies in our use of Cantaloupe’s Seed Pro and Seed Live software. This powerful platform is the central nervous system of our business, connecting every machine and market directly to our team, ensuring we are always one step ahead.
Seed Live: Real-Time Visibility
Seed Live provides us with a live, 24/7 dashboard of your entire refreshment service. This isn’t just data—it’s actionable intelligence.
- Problem Solved: The frustration of an empty or malfunctioning machine.
- How: We get instant machine alerts for any issue, from a bill jam to a temperature variance. This allows us to dispatch a technician proactively, often before you even notice there’s a problem. We also have real-time access to sales and inventory data, so we know exactly what your team loves and can spot trends as they happen.
Seed Pro: Intelligent, Proactive Service
Seed Pro takes the live data from our machines and turns it into a highly efficient service plan. This technology completely eliminates the old-fashioned, inefficient “guesswork” of visiting machines on a fixed schedule.
- Problem Solved: Inconsistent service and machines running out of popular items.
- How:
- Dynamic Scheduling: We only visit a machine when it actually needs service, based on its real-time inventory levels.
- Pre-kitting: Before our driver leaves the warehouse, we know precisely which products and how many of each are needed for every machine on the route. They arrive with a pre-picked tote, allowing them to restock your machines in minutes, not hours.
- Route Optimization: Our routes are dynamically planned to be as efficient as possible, ensuring fast, reliable service every time.
A Frictionless & Fail-Proof Experience
While our software works hard behind the scenes, your team benefits from state-of-the-art hardware that makes every interaction simple and satisfying.
Effortless and Secure Payments
The “I don’t have cash” problem is a thing of the past. Our entire ecosystem is built around providing flexible and secure payment options.
Intuitive Shopping and Guaranteed Delivery
We use cutting-edge hardware to create a user experience that is intuitive, fast, and fair.
The Best in Beverage Equipment
Your team deserves better than a burnt pot of coffee. We provide modern, high-performance equipment that delivers a premium beverage experience every time.
- Bean-to-Cup Brewers: Offer your team true, café-quality coffee, espresso, and lattes brewed fresh from whole beans at the touch of a button.
- Advanced Water Dispensers: Promote wellness and hydration with systems that dispense filtered, chilled, sparkling, and even flavored water, along with chewable nugget ice.
