ℹ️

Assumptions & methodology: Revenue is calculated as plays × price × 30 days. Prize & supply cost covers plush, capsule prizes, and incidental supplies as a percentage of gross revenue — typical range is 25–45% depending on prize type. Calculations do not include location rent, freight, or electricity (typically $5–15/month per machine). Payback period assumes no other fixed costs. These are projections based on industry averages — actual results will vary by location, traffic, and machine placement. Our team can review your specific situation and give you a grounded estimate before you commit.
