Simple to start. Effortless to run.
From first conversation to fully operational vending — Sorted handles every step. Your institution gets a revenue-generating student welfare service with nothing to manage.
Initial conversation
We start with a short call or meeting with your accommodation, student services, or facilities team. We learn about your campus layout, student numbers, and any specific welfare priorities — and explain exactly how the partnership works.
Site assessment
Our team visits campus to identify the best locations for machines — high-footfall spots like launderettes, common rooms, 24-hour study spaces, and accommodation corridors. We recommend placement to maximise student access and sales.
Agreement and setup
We agree the revenue share terms, machine locations, and product range. Sorted handles all procurement, logistics, and installation planning. There is no capital expenditure or procurement process required from your institution.
Installation
Sorted installs and configures the machines at no cost to your institution. We handle power requirements, connectivity setup, and product loading. Machines are tested and ready to trade before we leave.
Fully managed operation
Once live, Sorted takes care of everything. We remotely monitor stock levels in real time, proactively replenish inventory, maintain equipment, and handle any student queries or issues. Your facilities team has nothing to do.
Performance reviews
We share agreed sales and usage data on a regular basis. We continuously optimise the product range based on demand, student feedback, and seasonal trends. Your revenue share is paid on the agreed schedule.
Technology
Built on modern vending technology
Every Sorted machine is connected, cashless, and remotely managed — so the service runs smoothly without any input from your team.
Cashless payments
Contactless card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay accepted on every machine. No cash handling required.
Remote monitoring
Real-time stock level tracking and machine health monitoring means we know when to restock before items run out.
Automated alerts
Our system automatically flags low stock, machine faults, and unusual activity so issues are resolved fast.
Sales reporting
Detailed sales data and demand analysis helps us optimise the product range and demonstrates service value to your institution.
