Getting Started

5 questions
We serve apartment complexes, senior living, hospitals and urgent care, gyms and fitness centers, manufacturing plants, auto shops, offices, warehouses, schools, and 24-hour facilities across Snohomish, Skagit, Whatcom, Island & King County. If you have foot traffic, we can usually make it work.
Correct — for most locations, we place, stock, and service the machines at no cost to you. We earn revenue from product sales. Some specialty installations (like custom micro markets or tobacco setups) may have different terms, which we'll walk through upfront.
After a quick site visit, most standard installs happen within 1–2 weeks. Micro markets and specialty machines may take a bit longer. We'll give you a firm timeline before we start.
Just a standard wall outlet and the floor space. We handle delivery, installation, leveling, and testing. For tobacco machines, we'll help you verify the location qualifies as a licensed 21+ venue.
Absolutely. Many locations run a drink machine and a snack machine side-by-side, or add an AI smart cooler for fresh food. We'll recommend a mix based on your headcount and traffic.

Buying a Machine

7 questions
Eight HAHA models: Mini 360, Plus 440, Pro 542, Freezer 550, Max 620, Max 620S (with advertising screen), Max 660, and the double-door Ultra 1200. Starting-at pricing runs from $3,149 to $6,999 for a standard unwrapped machine. Capacity, shelving, cameras, and full specs for each are on the Shop Machines page.
Anywhere in the US, and we can arrange international shipping as well. Freight and delivery timing are confirmed with your order before invoicing.
Pick your models, quantity, and finish on the Shop Machines page and submit a purchase inquiry. It lands with Jeff Terhar, Director of Sales, who confirms availability, finalizes wrap and financing, and sends your invoice. You're not paying through the website.
Standard is the unwrapped factory finish at the starting-at price. Custom wrap brands the machine with your artwork — logo, colors, messaging. Wrap pricing and lead time depend on the design, so it's quoted with your order.
Financing options are available on every model through our distribution partners. Select "discuss financing" when you submit your inquiry, and run your own numbers first with the ROI calculator and payment estimator on the Financing page.
Every model carries a one-year manufacturer warranty from HAHA Vending, and as your distributor we're your first call.
