How does Vending Wealth Locator work?

Start in Find Locations, save qualified opportunities to Prospect Locations, move secured prospects into Launch Locations, then manage operating locations through Active Machines, Inventory, and Financials.

What happens after I save a prospect?

Use Prospect Locations to qualify the opportunity, record outreach and follow-ups, and mark it secured when the location is ready to move into the launch workflow.

How do I move a location into Launch?

Once a prospect is secured, use the Move to Launch action to transfer it into the launch workflow for setup and installation.

What does one search include?

One search covers one area, one radius, up to three categories, and up to 25 location results.

Why didn't my search return the locations I expected?

Results depend on the selected ZIP code, radius, categories, provider coverage, and available business data. Try a nearby ZIP code, a broader radius, or a different category when appropriate.

Where do I manage a secured location?

Launch Locations manages setup and installation. Once operational, use Active Machines, Inventory, and Financials to manage the location.

Where can I manage my plan or payment method?

Open Account and select Manage Plan. Subscription customers can access the billing portal for invoices and payment methods.

Where can I change my name, email, or password?

Open Account and use the Account Actions panel for Edit Name, Change Email, or Change Password.
