A student welfare win. Zero cost to your institution.
Sorted installs and fully manages smart vending machines in your student accommodation — stocked with everyday essentials, available 24/7. You get a revenue share. We handle everything else.
The benefits
Everything your institution gains
A fully managed service that improves student welfare, generates passive revenue, and requires nothing from your team.
Zero upfront investment
Sorted funds the machines, installation, and all ongoing operational costs. There is no capital expenditure, no procurement process, and no risk to your institution.
Genuine student welfare impact
Students get access to essentials — period products, toiletries, sexual health items, and more — at any hour. No closed shops, no inconvenience, no embarrassment.
Passive revenue share
Your institution receives an agreed percentage of all sales revenue generated on campus. The more students use it, the more you earn.
Fully managed end to end
We handle stocking, cashless payments, remote monitoring, maintenance, and customer support. Your facilities team has nothing to do.
Data and reporting
We share agreed sales and usage data so you can see the service performing. We continuously optimise the product range based on demand.
Trusted, discreet products
Every product is carefully selected for student needs — including sensitive items stocked discreetly and without stigma.
The process
How the partnership works
Initial conversation
We meet with your accommodation or student services team to understand your campus layout, student numbers, and priorities.
Site assessment
Our team visits to identify the highest-footfall locations — launderettes, common rooms, 24-hour study spaces, and accommodation corridors.
Installation at no cost
Sorted installs and configures the machines. We handle all logistics, power requirements, and setup. Nothing is required from your team.
Ongoing managed operation
We remotely monitor stock levels, replenish inventory, maintain equipment, and handle any student queries — continuously and proactively.
Revenue and performance reviews
You receive your revenue share on an agreed schedule, alongside performance data and product range updates.
