Tap, pay, cheers. How BeerMate and CCV IM30 are reinventing self-service
Specialised payment solutions for every vending scenario
Overview
BeerMate is an innovative self-service beer machine that combines drink vending, cup distribution, and cup return in one unit. Designed specifically for high-traffic environments like concerts, festivals, and stadiums, it eliminates the need for long queues and additional staff.
At the core of its payment setup? The CCV IM30. Our Android-based terminal enables fast, contactless payments directly on the machine – ensuring speed, reliability, and security during peak demand moments. A powerful and scalable payment solution for integrators and vending providers also for more complexe use cases.
The combination of BeerMate and CCV stands for fast, contactless transactions, perfect pours, and real-time operational insights.
