Introduction
When entering the capsule machine business, “buying equipment and operating it yourself” is not the only option. Choosing the right cooperation model based on your own resources, budget and capacity can greatly reduce risks and improve revenue efficiency.GERGERDA intelligent capsule machines offer diversified cooperation models, adapting to different types of partners such as individual entrepreneurs, venue resource holders and brands. This article explains the four mainstream Capsule machine cooperation models in detail.
1. Outright Purchase Cooperation: Independent Operation, Full Revenue Retention
Outright purchase is the most straightforward model. Partners purchase the equipment directly, own the ownership of the machines, operate independently, and retain all generated revenue.
1.Suitable for:
Entrepreneurs or merchants with certain operational capabilities, venue resources, and the intention to run an independent business long-term.
2.Core advantages:
Maximum profit margin and high operational autonomy. You can adjust operation strategies according to your own plans, delivering the highest long-term returns.
3.Supporting services:
The brand provides full-process support including equipment installation and commissioning, operation training, supply chain sourcing, and after-sales maintenance, allowing even beginners to get started quickly.
2. Joint Operation: Resource Exchange, Shared Risk
Under the joint operation model, the brand provides equipment and operation support, while the partner provides venue resources. Both parties share revenue at an agreed ratio, with automatic settlement via the system.
1.Suitable for:
Venue owners or resource holders who own high-quality locations such as shopping malls, cinemas and scenic spots, but do not want to invest in equipment purchase or get involved in daily operations.

Zero equipment investment and zero operational effort for the partner. You only need to provide the venue to earn stable shared revenue, with almost zero risk. The brand is responsible for equipment operation and maintenance, gift selection and restocking, providing full turnkey operation.

The system has a built-in intelligent profit-sharing function, with real-time data access and automatic settlement. Accounts are fully transparent, and no manual reconciliation is required.
