According to this, conventional vending machines are usually set up near stadiums, stations, shopping malls or toilets, and coins are usually used as the transaction method of vending machines, and the required commodities such as food, beverages, daily necessities, etc. can be selected after the required amount of money is invested. It brings great convenience to consumers, and even if there is no one to manage, they can also sell; but with the popularity of stores, their convenience has risen sharply, making vending machines gradually ignored, which reduces their willingness to buy, plus Nowadays, there are diversified consumption methods, and there are many ways of consumption instead of only cash transactions. As a result, consumers have changed their consumption patterns and reduced the use of cash. Therefore, in addition to traditional vending machines that can only use coins, they can reduce their willingness to consume. It is the change in consumption patterns that indirectly reduces the sales of vending machines. Nowadays, there are already vending machines on the market that use compound transaction methods. The acceptance of banknotes has been added to eliminate the possibility that only coins can be used. The card payment function can use multiple payment methods to increase the user’s willingness to buy, and it has the convenience of small size and fast transactions, and reduces With less manpower to serve customers, it does not require a large space and can be more intensively set up than convenience stores, so it has become one of the popular options when people go out to consume.

However, according to the above, it can be seen that the conventional vending machine can only use coins when in use, and although the improved vending machine can use banknotes and cashless payment, it is difficult to be efficient when the payment function is diversified. Integration into the vending machine makes it impossible to fully use the online payment part of the vending machine. For example, the credit card is used but the Youyou card cannot be used. Due to the different payment companies and card types, it is difficult to fully consider the integration in use. Different systems are subject to conflicts in transactions because of the risk of crashes in use. Therefore, if a crash or transaction problem occurs, it needs to send manpower to deal with it. As a result, when the number of vending machines is large, it is difficult to take care of all of them. If the vending machine fails to be repaired immediately, it will cause inconvenience to consumers, and even the cash transaction part cannot be fully carried out. If the vending machine is not repaired continuously, it will cause no profit in the time before repair, which is really troublesome and inconvenient. , And urgently need to be improved.
