Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is the GERGERDA Intelligent SaaS Backend mandatory for running an Unattended Capsule Machine?
A: The machine can operate standalone for basic sales without connecting to the backend, yet complete unattended operation relies fully on the GERGERDA Intelligent SaaS Backend. Standalone mode only enables basic payment and capsule dispensing, lacking core functions including revenue statistics, fault alerts, remote control, member profit sharing and inventory reminders. For mass deployment of Unattended Capsule Machine, linking to the GERGERDA Intelligent SaaS Backend allows remote switching of payment channels, automatic profit allocation for all stakeholders, and real-time abnormal equipment notifications. It drastically reduces offline manual inspection and bookkeeping workload, acting as an essential supporting system for large-scale Unattended Capsule Machine rollout.
Q2: Can a Multi-Payment Capsule Machine directly replace old conventional capsule machines as a whole unit?
A: Direct full-machine replacement or mixing is not feasible. Vintage capsule machines reserve no installation slots for modular payment assemblies, and their circuit & communication structures are incompatible with Multi-Payment Capsule Machine. Forced refitting easily triggers coin jamming, QR scan malfunctions and short-circuit failures. All Commercial Capsule Machine leave factory with integrated payment module card slots, with coin, card and QR scan modules universally matching fuselage wiring and synchronizing data via the GERGERDA Intelligent SaaS Backend. To realize unified management of multi-channel payments, purchasing original factory integrated Multi-Payment Capsule Machine is recommended to cut later refitting and maintenance costs.
Q3: Can a single model of Commercial Capsule Machine meet deployment demands for shopping malls, hotels and convenience stores simultaneously?
A: One single model cannot fit all scenarios; corresponding modular assemblies must be selected according to venue requirements. Shopping malls with diverse crowds require the premium Commercial Capsule Machine equipped with full payment modules. Convenience stores targeting low costs only need lightweight models with QR scan + basic coin insertion. Hotels and high-end clubs adopt cashless Commercial Capsule Machine with coin and banknote modules removed to eliminate noise. Data from all models can be centrally managed via the GERGERDA Intelligent SaaS Backend, yet hardware modules, fuselage appearance and payment combinations need separate matching per venue to lift operation conversion and venue compatibility.
