Pod Plug is America's top specialty vending company. We started in 2019 with a simple idea: stock vending machines with the things people actually need on a night out. That became Pod Plug's nightlife vending division, now operating in 30+ cities across the country. In 2025, we launched our second vertical: trading card vending machines. Pokemon, sports cards, Japanese TCG products. Placed in malls, grocery stores, airports, and entertainment venues. Same operational model, 10x the placement opportunities. Today, Pod Plug runs 163+ machines across 16 states with $6.5M+ in total vending sales. We scale through the City Launcher program. Local operators in college towns and metro markets place and manage machines in their territory. Pod Plug owns all equipment and inventory, handles supply chain and payments infrastructure, and splits profits with operators who know their market better than anyone. Two verticals. One operational system. Hundreds of high-traffic locations where traditional vending doesn't exist. If you run a venue, manage a property, or want to bring specialty vending to your market, we want to hear from you!
