Smart coolers · Orange County & LA

Tap. Grab. Back to work. Zero cost to you.

Tapside places a smart cooler in your break room and keeps it stocked and running. Your team taps a card, opens the door and takes what they want. You never pay for the machine, the product or the service.

You provide the floor space and a standard outlet. That's it.

We see what's running low before you do.

The cooler reports its inventory remotely, so restock trips are planned around what's actually selling at your location.

Cold drinks and food without leaving the building.

Night shifts, short breaks, no cafeteria. A cooler on-site means your team doesn't burn their break driving to a store.

  • Glass front, so people see what's inside before they tap
  • Card, tap and phone pay
  • Available whenever your building is open

The right size

A cooler sized to your space.

No made-up reviews

We're placing our first Orange County coolers now.

You won't find invented testimonials here. Early partners get something better: my direct number and personal attention on every restock and every issue. When we have real results from real locations, they'll go on this page.

Questions

What people ask first.

How is this free for my business?

We earn from the products sold in the cooler. You don't pay for the machine, installation, stocking or service. The only things you provide are the space and a standard outlet, and the cooler uses about as much power as a break-room fridge.

Who pays for the products?

We buy and stock everything. Your employees or visitors pay for what they take, using a card, phone or watch.

Does it take cash?

No. It's card, tap and phone pay only, which is what keeps it fast and reliable.

What if it breaks or runs out?

We track inventory remotely and handle all repairs. Text or call and we respond within 24 hours, usually the same day.

Can we choose what goes in it?

Yes. We set the product mix with your team's input and adjust it based on what sells.

How much space does it need?

About 3×3 ft of floor space near a standard 110V outlet. We confirm the exact spot during a quick walk-through.

Do we have to replace our current vending machines?

No. The cooler can sit alongside what you have, and you never have to break an existing vendor agreement.

How long is the commitment?

Month-to-month. Give us 14 days' written notice and we remove the cooler at no charge.
