just like how SG cannot unify a payment system to date.
SGQR, paylah, paynow, netsQR, grabpay, shopeepay etc. different system requires different app.

the bottle machine same same, Paylah or SimpGo only. nothing else.

bought a drink, realized is 10c more ex, thought it was coz I bought the cold version.

later then realised is the 10c return.

when to machine, return, only accept DBS Paylah or SimplyGo ez-link card.

whip out my ez-link and scan, TMD, not accepted, coz mine is old type ez-link, cheesepie, got scammed 10c by pap.gov.sg

It's unimaginable by this age and time, you still don't have paylah and simplygo... Wait, I use for credit card for transport, can the 10c credit goes to my credit card?

Next time crush the aluminum can or remove bottle bar code then throw. That 10 cent give the begger who implement the system
I don't get how the system works.

The 10 cents is collected by supermarket. Then how the 10 cents go to the recycle machine company to reimburse the buyer?

In TS case, if he did not return the bottle, that extra 10 cents collected go to who? Supermarket, recycle company or drinks manufacturer?

very soon will see big big in the news:

"Project is a success!"
"More than X% 'polled, can pay more to get less back but everyone happy!"
"Everywhere also can find easily, machine 101% availability and uptime, usage and take up rate at 200%!"
"Environmental care achieved!"
"KPIs met !!"
"Ownself praise ownself now!!"
:cautious::cautious::cautious:
Get dis-grace-fool to witness who TS fails to get the refund. Then ask her how, how, how?

The fugging kopitiam up 10c because of this, and most of the ppl bochap to return. Meaning, the fugging kopitiam earn additional 20c now. 10c from up the original price telling the buyer they can refund the can at the machine. If the customer never bother, the operator will refund the bottle for 10c, making it 20c.
Most of the coffeeshop don’t even bother to bring to the machine. Just stack together with those non 10 cent bottles and cans and throw away.

And tourists LL because they also don’t have paylah or Ezlink. They use their credit card to tap for public transport nowadays.
No thought process from the scholars who came out with this.

Good to question dis-grace-fool. Tourist no need to care for environment?

Don't ask sinkie to help them with the refund by using their own ezlink or paylah, then give back 10 cents in coin back to tourist.

Last year 16.9 million tourists visit Singapore. That is a lot of 10 cents…
