REGULATED VENDING

INDUSTRY NEWS brought to you by FASTCORP

The fast-evolving regulatory landscape of the US, coupled with increasing consumer demand for convenience, has pushed businesses to find new ways to meet demand and distribute goods while remaining safe, compliant, and efficient.

Technological advances in automated retail have positioned it as a dynamic option for businesses to scale their operation and safely sell regulated or age-restricted products. While regulations may vary depending on the location and the type of products being sold, the efficiency and precision required in these transactions remain consistently important. A major advantage offered by regulated vending is the elimination of human error in the process of ID verification. This not only streamlines operations but also guarantees accurate age verification, every transaction, every time.

The Challenge of Human Error:

Human error is an inherent aspect of all manual processes, and when it comes to verifying identification for regulated product sales, the stakes are high.

Employees in bars, restaurants, and retail establishments may occasionally make mistakes when checking IDs for age verification. Whether due to carelessness, fatigue, apathy, or pure malpractice, the sale of restricted products to the wrong people can land your employee, your business, and you in hot water. Non-compliance with age verification regulations can lead to…

  • Fines and Monetary Penalties
  • License Suspension or Revocation
  • Legal Action and Lawsuits
  • Increased Scrutiny and Inspections
  • Even Criminal Charges

Automated Precision:

Vending machines like the Fastcorp DIVI Regulated are equipped with ID verification technology from ID-Scan.net. This technology can accurately verify an ID in under 15 seconds. With the automated ID verification of Fastcorp’s DIVI regulated machines, the risk of errors associated with ID verification is diminished.

Enhanced Compliance:

Regulated vending plays a pivotal role in increasing adherence to legal requirements and compliance. By automating ID verification, vending operators can rest assured that the sale of age-restricted or regulated products is consistently in line with local, state, and federal regulations. This level of automation not only safeguards against unintentional violations but also reduces the likelihood of deliberate attempts to circumvent the system.

Streamlining Operations:

Efficiency is a cornerstone of regulated vending, and the removal of human error during ID verification contributes significantly to streamlining operations. Fastcorp DIVI regulated vending machines equipped with ID-Scan.net technology can swiftly process transactions, allowing customers to access regulated products without unnecessary delays. This not only enhances the customer experience but also optimizes the overall efficiency of vending operations.

Data Security and Privacy:

DIVI regulated machines’ ID verification systems also come with built-in security measures to protect sensitive customer data. Advanced encryption and secure databases ensure that personal information collected during the ID verification process is safeguarded against unauthorized access. This commitment to data security not only meets regulatory standards but also builds trust among consumers who prioritize privacy.
