Free

Retailer Membership

For shops & supermarkets selling beverages to the public.

Retailers are where consumers meet the deposit. Registration is free. You charge the €0.10 deposit at the till and — depending on your floor area — may host a Reverse Vending Machine or manual return point so customers can claim their refund in-store.

Who is this for?

Retailers and supermarkets selling in-scope beverages directly to consumers.

What’s included +
  • Free registration
  • Apply the €0.10 deposit at point of sale
  • Option to host a return point / RVM
  • Point-of-sale guidance & signage
How registration works +

Add this membership to your selection, then complete registration on the secure BCRS member portal. Any applicable fee is settled there — no payment is taken on this preview. Your obligations under the Beverage Container Refund Scheme begin once your registration is approved.

Your role in the loop +

Every member helps the €0.10 deposit travel cleanly from first sale to refund. See the full participation conditions for your category, or review the frequently asked questions.
