RETURN SYSTEMS

Three ways to return. One goal: reuse.

Choose the return journey that fits your service, payment model and venue layout.

01 / Deposit. Return. Refund.

A refundable deposit at purchase. A dedicated return point that verifies the cup and sends the refund to a payment card.

02 / Borrow freely. Return simply.

Link a cup and authorise a card at the till. Return the cup to a Smart Bin within the agreed period to avoid a charge.

03 / Free inside. Tracked at the exit.

Let customers use cups throughout your venue. Gate readers identify linked cups leaving the site and trigger the agreed charge.
