Why choose a smart cup management solution?

Modernise your operations

Automate the entire cup return and refund process with our smart cup system. No more manual collection or delays. Attendees simply return their cups at designated points, where they’re scanned and processed instantly. This not only speeds up operations but brings your event in line with the latest in sustainable and efficient event technology.

Cut costs on staffing

By introducing self-service return stations, you drastically reduce the need for extra staff at cup return points. This helps you lower your event’s operational costs while still offering a seamless and efficient return experience for attendees.

Ensure a fair and secure refund system

Our RFID-based solution ensures that only the original buyer receives the deposit refund. This prevents fraud, eliminates disputes, and creates a transparent system where every attendee is treated fairly, boosting trust and satisfaction.

Gain full stock visibility

Track every cup from distribution to return in real time. Our smart cup management solution gives you full control and insight into cup movements across all your bars and return points. This means no more lost stock, better planning, and reliable post-event reporting.

Smart cup technology

How does smart cup technology work?

  1. Equip your event with smart cups: The system requires reusable cups embedded with an NFC chip, provided by one of our partner suppliers.
  2. Link each cup: Every smart cup is associated with its buyer’s wristband or card at the point of sale by the use of a smart tab from one of our partners.
  3. Drop off at return points: Attendees return cups to dedicated collection areas, separate from bars, where each cup is scanned automatically.
  4. Automatic refund: Refunds are processed instantly to the original buyer’s cashless account or payment card.
  5. Track and control: Organisers gain real-time visibility of cup stock and movement across the site.

Frequently asked questions

What are the benefits of Weezevent’s smart cup management for attendees?

Our smart cup system provides a fast, automated return process with no queues. Attendees return their reusable cups at dedicated drop-off points and get their deposit refunded instantly, creating a seamless and sustainable experience.

How does the smart cup system work?

Each RFID or NFC reusable cup is linked to the buyer’s wristband or cashless card at the point of sale. When returned at automated drop-off points, refunds are processed securely and directly to the original buyer’s cashless account or payment card.

How can smart cup management reduce costs?

By automating the reusable cup deposit system, there’s no need for extra staff at return stations. The system prevents fraud, tracks every cup to avoid lost stock, and saves organisers significant costs in the long term.

Do I need permanent internet connectivity for this system?

No. The automated cup return hardware is designed to work offline if needed, making it ideal for large outdoor events and festivals with limited connectivity.

Does this solution require staff training?

The smart cup management system is intuitive and easy to use. We offer training if required to help your team confidently manage RFID/NFC cups and ensure smooth operations.
