Machine Placement
Yes. Local bars, restaurants, and venues can contact Indiana Joe to discuss possible machine placement. Use the contact form or call 812-779-1757 to start a conversation about what works for your space.
Placement means Indiana Joe installs and operates machines in your venue long-term. You don't own the machine. Joe handles everything from delivery and setup to ongoing maintenance. In many cases, revenue generated by the machine is shared between both parties.
Revenue generated by the machines is split between Indiana Joe and the host venue. The exact split depends on the agreement. It's a way for venues to earn passive income without any upfront cost or maintenance responsibility.
Bars, breweries, lounges, restaurants, and similar venues with steady foot traffic tend to work best. The key is having enough space for the machine and customers who are likely to engage with it during their visit.
A standard pinball machine is roughly 24 inches wide and 52 inches deep. You'll want some clearance on the sides and behind for players. A 4x6 foot footprint is a reasonable planning estimate.
Service and Maintenance
Yes. Indiana Joe maintains and services all machines placed in local venues. Keeping games playable and presentable is a core part of the operation. If something needs attention, Joe takes care of it.
Indiana Joe handles repairs directly. As a local operator, response time is much faster than dealing with a distant company. Most issues are addressed quickly to minimize downtime for the venue.
