A BETTER NIGHTLIFE AMENITY
Keep Guests at Your Venue - and Turn Convenience Into Revenue
When a guest needs a vape or nicotine pouch, leaving the venue may mean waiting in line again, abandoning their table or ending the night early.
Afterwrk gives eligible 21+ venues an on-site purchasing option designed for the speed and convenience of nightlife. Guests get what they need without leaving. Your venue gains incremental revenue without adding another responsibility to the bar staff.

COMPLIANCE-FIRST PLACEMENT
Compliance Starts Before the Machine Is Installed
Nicotine vending is not appropriate for every location. Afterwrk begins each opportunity by determining whether the venue and jurisdiction are suitable for placement.
Our process is designed to address:
• Adult-only venue eligibility
• Applicable state and local restrictions
• Retail or tobacco licensing responsibilities
• Machine placement and access
• Product eligibility and inventory standards
• Age-verification procedures
• Required signage and operating policies
The machine’s ID technology supports the purchasing process, but it does not replace the venue’s obligation to operate as an eligible 21+ facility.
Compliance disclosure
Federal rules restrict tobacco-product vending machines to facilities where people under 21 are not present or permitted to enter at any time. State and local requirements may impose additional restrictions or prohibit certain placements. This page should not be presented as legal advice.

Nicotine Vending Machine FAQs
Can a venue that occasionally holds 18+ or all-ages events qualify?
A facility where people under 21 are present or permitted to enter at any time would not meet the current federal vending-machine condition. The venue’s full admission policy and operating schedule should therefore be reviewed before placement.
Who stocks and services the machine?
Afterwrk manages routine stocking, monitoring and machine service according to the placement agreement.
What products can the machine carry?
The available product mix depends on the jurisdiction, venue eligibility, machine configuration and Afterwrk’s inventory standards. Potential categories may include eligible vape and nicotine pouch products.
Are nicotine vending machines legal in bars and nightclubs?
They may be permitted in eligible adult-only venues, depending on the jurisdiction. Under current federal rules, people under 21 cannot be present or permitted to enter a facility containing a tobacco-product vending machine at any time. State and local laws may be more restrictive. Afterwrk reviews venue eligibility before proposing installation.
Does an ID scanner make any bar eligible?
No. ID technology can support an age-verification workflow, but it does not replace the federal requirement that the facility itself exclude people under 21 at all times.
Who is responsible for licensing?
Licensing responsibility can vary by jurisdiction and operating structure. Afterwrk coordinates the applicable process and defines each party’s responsibilities before installation. Where federal and local law allows, Afterwrk will hold the necessary tobacco licensing, and handle all regulatory permitting.
How much room does the machine require?
The machine pictured in the current sales material is approximately 41.5 inches high, 23.6 inches wide and 11.8 inches deep. Final placement also requires appropriate access to power, ethernet or wifi connectivity and customer flow.
Does the venue have to handle cash?
The machine shown in the current materials is designed for cashless card transactions, reducing cash-handling responsibilities for venue staff.
How much can a venue earn?
Revenue varies by traffic, hours, pricing, product mix and purchase demand. Afterwrk should provide venue-specific commercial terms and a clearly labeled projection during the review process. Per Sellout (all items in machine sold) a venue may earn approximately $190-$500 (actual amount varies based on region, MSRP, product mix, and demand). Sellout frequency depends on venue traffic/hours/location and may occur anywhere from once per month to twice per day for a total monthly revenue that may range from $190/mo to $5700/mo or more passive income. Your results will vary based on venue size, location, local laws, hours, name recognition/branding, price of nicotine products in your region, traffic through your venue, economics, local demand, and more. These numbers are not standard, are not a promise of what you will make and are not guaranteed or projected in anyway.
What happens when the machine needs service?
Afterwrk monitors the machine and coordinates maintenance according to the service terms established for the placement.
