How we calculate your ROI
Your estimate is built from three concrete changes to how your fleet operates:
- Less downtime — real-time alerts catch problems early, recovering sales you'd otherwise lose.
- Smarter restocking — live sales data means machines get refilled with what's actually selling.
- Optimized routes — visiting machines by need, not a fixed schedule, cuts service costs.
Revenue gains count at your margin; cost savings count in full. Subtract what adoption costs, and what's left is your ROI, payback period, and profit increase — calculated from your fleet's own numbers.
The formulas
- Annual gain = (Recovered sales + Additional sales) × Margin + Route savings
- Investment (three years) = Hardware + 36 months of subscription, scaled to your fleet
- ROI % = (3 × Annual gain − Investment) ÷ Investment
- Payback period (months) = Hardware ÷ ((Annual gain − Annual subscription) ÷ 12)
- Profit increase, three years = 3 × Annual gain − Investment
