This at first.Then a stupid idiot will say:Hey why not use them all the time?
And then it will be worse
or save a few cents on coffee that probably makes you regret drinking it in the first place
@pekamp
nice one, but who would use the internet then?

dont ban me just spank me
anon; I think is a great idea
I think the idea of prepaid card is good
In addition soda vendor machines could be an option

Unless u use the same vending machine all the time, it might not be a good idea. bc the card would only work for that vending machine or that brand of vending machine.
Vending machine companies might get a lot of money if they sell bulk for ie 20 cups and customers only usee 15 because they dont use in the allotted time or the machines are not avalible whee the customer is.
this type of purchase would only be good for those customers who really really like coffee take make any use of the discount. but fro the casual customer its not worth it.
the vending company would have to make sure that there are many customers who are repeat and love their coffee otherwise the money put into making discount cards and validating htem would be too costly.
this would in affect become like a loyalty program for coffee vending machines like a supermarket but although u have the concept they still wont be a le to pull it off

Well, as most of us just dont want to have another new card (allready too many), than:
- stick to the big ones, f.e. payback germany (after bank card and insurance card third most used, multibrand (220+), 2/3 households have one, dont know other EU countries)
or
- wait for official RFID personal ID cards and let the customer agree to data security conditions, save his milk/sugar preset, and install a short range RFID scanner (transparent customer).
I like the first one the most. The RFID chips actually scare me off... and dont forgett the nipples!
saebrtooth, originally I was thinking of the card only working for an specific coffee machine, but I guess using for all from the same brand may work. Some kind of encouragement to use the former could be introduced, though, if necessary - for example, you get 25% less discount when using other ones.
I'll pass, thank you.

I do not like if the machine ask me for tips.
Tips? But if the idea here is decreasing the price!

While walking home today, I thought I could give this different, random coffee machine in the street a spin. The price was 1.50AR$, against the 1.00 from the usual one, which I have a good rep with. OK, so far so good - perhaps it was worth the extra money. So, I drop a few coins in, and when looking for the "coffee with chocolate" button, I notice you can't fine-tune the amount of sugar like with the other machine - it was either super-sweet or extra bitter. I went for the former, i.e. the closest thing to good old +4 sugar I always choose. The machine didn't make up for this limitation with a bigger cup, either. That was another disappointment, but it didn't compare to the second I actually started drinking this would-be coffee with chocolate: the cup was full of foam at the top, and when I finally made it, the thing was simple chocolate, with no coffee, and annoyingly sweet.
I'm not using that machine anymore.
