This refurbished Crane 472 Merchant Media combo vending machine combines snacks, cold drinks, and refrigerated food in one glass-front cabinet with 44 selections and a 7-inch touchscreen. Crane’s MEDIA platform turns the machine into an automated retail store, with custom graphics, on-screen messaging, a shopping-cart checkout, and digital advertising.
One machine, three categories
The Merchant Media 472 runs two shelves of six snack selections, a 12-wide candy shelf, and a beverage section for roughly 20 cans or bottles, for 44 selections in total. Crane’s SureVend technology confirms each delivery, so customers are not charged for a missed vend. A refrigeration zone barrier lets one side stay colder than the other.

Best for offices and facilities that want fresh food
The zoned refrigeration lets the 472 sell cold drinks, dairy, fresh food, and snacks together, which suits offices, hospitals, campuses, and manufacturing break rooms that want a single machine doing the work of two or three. The touchscreen and graphics help drive same-store sales and let you promote higher-margin items.
Payment and the MEDIA platform
The 472 takes coins, bills, and cashless out of the box, including credit cards, Apple Pay, and Google Wallet through the integrated reader. The MEDIA screen also runs promotions and digital advertising, so the machine can lift basket size and even earn ad revenue.
