VendGOWeekend breakdowns
A vacuum dies on a busy Saturday at the gas station. The call hits voicemail and the machine sits dead until Monday.
For Air, Vacuum & Tire-Inflation Operators
Air & Vacuum Management Software
The only management platform built for the machines everyone else forgets — air pumps, vacuum stations, and tire-inflation units at gas stations and car washes. Built on a working air & vacuum route in Tampa Bay: one system for reports, refunds, repairs, parts, routes, and invoicing.
Starter $4 · Complete $8 per machine / month · No setup fees
Air and vacuum management software is a platform built specifically for operators of air machines, vacuum stations, and tire-inflation stations — centralizing issue reporting, refunds, repairs, parts, routes, preventive maintenance, revenue monitoring, and invoicing in one system instead of a stack of disconnected tools.
Generic vending software and generic work-order tools both miss this niche. Vending platforms are built for snack and beverage fleets; work-order tools are built for home trades like HVAC and plumbing. Neither understands a silent vacuum, a spent filter, or a Nayax credit. VendGO does — and it runs your vending machines in the same fleet if you have them.
Where air & vacuum revenue leaks
A dead vacuum costs you every hour it sits
Between “machine breaks” and “tech arrives,” money leaks from three places. VendGO closes all three.
Drivers who just drive off
Most customers never call about a dead air pump — they leave. Without a report, you find out days later from the revenue numbers.
Filters, parts & paperwork
Filter rotations on a spreadsheet, motors and hoses tracked from memory, and month-end invoices typed in by hand.
Revenue Monitoring
Catch a silent machine the morning after it goes dark
You’re already collecting the sales data. VendGO checks every machine overnight and hands your techs a ranked morning alert of machines that stopped selling — each with the dollar value of the silence. No new hardware, no new subscription.
- Nightly check — one query per machine: did it sell anything today?
- Priority ranking — days silent weighed against revenue tier, so the costly failures surface first.
- Morning alert list — sorted by priority with lost revenue on every card; one tap makes a repair ticket.
What your techs see when they open VendGO before a route — Revenue Alerts, worst first, each with the dollar value of the silence.

Assigned tech alerted — SMS + email, within seconds
Every machine carries its own QR code and number — scan or text. No calls to answer, voicemails, call centers, or apps to download.
Customer Reaches Out
Every machine has a QR code and a phone number. The customer scans or texts and gets a link back — and any call is answered automatically. No app, no signup, and no calls for you to answer.
Reports the Issue
A form branded to your company opens with location and machine ID pre-filled. Pick the issue type, hit submit.
Tech Gets Notified
The assigned tech gets an instant SMS and email with full context — issue type, location, machine.
Issue Resolved
Tech logs the repair, parts auto-deduct from inventory, owner sees it live on the dashboard.
Built for the work
Everything an air & vacuum operation runs on
Silent-machine revenue monitoring
A daily check flags any air or vacuum machine that sold nothing — so a dead motor or jammed coin mech surfaces the next morning, not at month-end.
QR & text issue reporting
A sticker on the machine lets customers report a weak vacuum or dead air pump in seconds — no app. Calls are auto-answered and texted the same link.
Automated refunds & Nayax credits
Customers request a refund from the same flow; office staff approve with fraud checks, and credits post to QuickBooks Online automatically.
Repair tracking built for A/V failures
Turn a report into a work ticket, assign a tech, and track it to done — with the vocabulary of air/vacuum work, not generic “jobs.”
Parts inventory & auto-deduction
Track vacuum motors, filters, hoses, and nozzles. Parts deduct as they’re used, with reorder points and an order-now list.
Route & preventive maintenance
Organize machines by route and location, schedule filter rotations and motor checks, and grant time-limited coverage access.
Preventive Maintenance
Replace parts before they retire your machine
Every wear part on a clock — VendGO keeps a component registry for each machine and updates it from the repairs your techs already log. No spreadsheet, no data entry.
- Warnings before failures — parts flag at 75% of life, critical at 90%: the exact machine, side, and part.
- Filter rotation, planned — set your cadence once; get a weekly goal per route, no spreadsheet.
- Never run out — weeks-of-stock projections show ORDER NOW with time to actually order.

Why not just use vending software or a generic FSM tool?
Because both were built for someone else. A vending VMS has no air/vacuum data model, and a generic work-order tool has no per-machine revenue tracking or Nayax/QuickBooks refund pipeline. VendGO is the only platform at the intersection of vending, air/vacuum, and day-to-day operations.

| Per-machine revenue / silent-machine alert | Yes | Partial | No |
| QR/text customer issue reporting | Yes | Rare | No |

Built by an air & vacuum operator
VendGO was built by Brian Petrovich while running a real air and vacuum route in Tampa Bay. The platform is built around the problems a route like that runs into: a vacuum motor that dies over a weekend, a customer who loses money and drives off, a filter rotation that lives on a spreadsheet, a month-end invoice typed in by hand.
That’s why the platform speaks air and vacuum natively — vac motors, compressors, and filters on a clock, silent-machine alerts tuned to forecourt stations, and Nayax credits that post to QuickBooks on their own.

Frequently asked questions
What is air and vacuum management software?
Air and vacuum management software is a platform built specifically for operators of air machines, vacuum stations, and tire-inflation stations. It centralizes customer issue reporting, refunds, repair tracking, parts inventory, route management, preventive maintenance, revenue monitoring, and invoicing in one system.
How is this different from general vending software?
General vending software is built around snack and beverage fleets and has no concept of air/vacuum work — no vacuum-motor life, no filter rotations, no “silent machine” revenue check tuned to forecourt and car-wash stations. VendGO speaks the language of air and vacuum operations natively while still handling vending machines in the same fleet.
Do my customers need an app to report a problem?
No. Customers scan the QR code on the machine or text the number on it. Both open a branded form pre-filled with the machine and location. If a customer calls out of habit, the line is auto-answered and texts them the same link.
Does it work with Nayax?
Yes. VendGO works alongside Nayax: Nayax handles payments and telemetry, and that data flows into VendGO, which handles what a person does next — repairs, refunds and Nayax credits, parts, and invoicing.
How much does it cost?
Starter is $4 per machine per month for small operators (up to ~150 machines); Complete is $8 per machine per month with every feature unlocked. There are no setup fees, integration fees, or hidden admin costs.
