The out-of-court settlement in a representative lawsuit against two of Israel’s largest vending machine operators, Mash-Kar and Mashkat, is under review by the Jerusalem District Court. As part of the deal, the companies have agreed to stop charging a separate fee for paying for purchases at their machines with a credit card, which was the subject of the lawsuit. In addition, they will donate NIS 22 million worth of food to soldiers, hospitals, and nursing homes.
The settlement marks a positive outcome for consumers who were impacted by the practice of charging extra fees for credit card payments at vending machines. The decision to cease this practice and donate food to those in need demonstrates a commitment to corporate responsibility and fairness.
This resolution will set an important precedent for vending machine operators in Israel and may influence industry practices moving forward. It serves as a reminder that upholding consumer rights and promoting transparency and accountability are essential for creating an equitable business environment.
Overall, this case highlights the power of collective action in bringing about positive change and protecting consumer interests. It is an important step towards creating a more ethical and transparent business environment in Israel’s vending machine industry.
