Prepared 10 drink cans with the mark. Managed to return them all and got refund of $1. Used moi DBS Paylah to receive the amount.

Some important points to SIC, which may not be so obvious reading from the website:

1. The bottom of the can should face out, and the side you drink from should face inside the machine.

2. The barcode should be facing up. Imagine about a 120 degrees arc from the top of the circle. You should see a strip of red light trying to read the barcode. I don't think the machine is smart enough if you place the can in the opposite direction (i.e. drink side facing outwards, instead of inwards), that would mean it reads the barcode upside down. During this time, around the touchscreen on its left, you would see a green light.

3. It may take a few tries for the machine to read the barcode. The first few cans I tried, it took moi 4 or 5 tries. Towards the end, I could get it to register with 1 or 2 tries. There's no time limit to return all the cans you prepare, so no need to rush. Wait a few seconds between each can return. Time it so you can see the red strip scanning the drink can.

4. Once the machine registers the drink can, you would see it stop in the middle of the roller, and then takes in the drink can. Around the touchscreen on its left, you would see a blue light.

5. Once you returned all the cans, just tap "Refund" on the screen, followed by selecting the mode to receive the amount. I used DBS Paylah to receive the amount. I also tuned up the brightness of moi phone for the machine to read moi QR code easily. Paylah is instantaneous. Saw the updated amount on moi phone immediately.

Huat ah!
