Square Reader in VENDING MACHINES!

We want to open a line of 1,400 vending machines around Oz. There is no way we will use Nayax, which is what ALL the China-made machines use, because

1) it cost $400 extra per vending machine 

2) commissions and monthly fees are far too high. 

 

We want to use Square Reader because:

1) Its only $59 per machine

2) No monthly fees and cheaper commissions. 

 

But - we CANNOT find anyone in any Chinese vending machines manufacturing company that knows how to do it.

 

I tried twice to contact Square Reader but never got to any person who actually came back tome to help. 

ANYONE here with ANY idea>!>? 

 

Thanks!

(note: machines such as Nayax connect to the vending machine via a physical MDB cable in the same way the coin selectors are connected, but Square Reader connects via Bluetooth and has no physical cable option on its hardware)

Hello there @audreys_888 I recommend looking into Square APIs and the Square Developer Forums I know you will find valuable information on how to integrate payments on a Vending Machine there.
