The staff card system South African canteens run on
Coges Engine is a complete electronic payment platform that unifies cashless, cash and telemetry in one in-machine system. Employees pay with a MyKey staff key, a MIFARE or LEGIC card, or the Pay4Vend smartphone app, and because it is a closed-loop system, you stay in control of pricing, subsidies and allowances per person or per group.
Choose the level that fits
- Engine Data: offline reporting with USB or infrared data extraction
- Engine Base: the complete payment system with flexible pricing, bonuses and promotions
- Engine Plus: adds extended cashless features, audit capability and meal voucher support
- Engine Connect: full cloud integration with embedded telemetry, remote refunds and live product and price updates
What Engine Connect telemetry does for you
With the connected model, every machine reports in real time: track bestsellers per location, get low-stock alerts with ready-made pack lists, monitor cash and cashless revenue side by side, and push price changes across a whole fleet remotely. On fresh-food machines, temperature alerts flag a problem before stock spoils.

Fits your machines, and your payroll
Engine speaks every major vending protocol (Executive, MDB, BDV and RS232) and integrates coin changers and bill validators, so cash and cashless reconcile in one report. Transactions are encrypted end to end, with blacklist and whitelist control and remote firmware updates. We supply, install and configure the whole system, and advise on the right card or key setup for your site.
