Drinks by SMS: "A generous buyer logs onto bcodedrinks.com or a venue's own website, selects a bar and a drink, enters the recipient's mobile phone number and pays for the drink online. The recipient receives a message, takes their mobile phone to the bar and holds the sms drink voucher under a scanning device. The voucher is verified and the drink can be grabbed at the bar."
I was one of the judges at the Ericsson Frontier Awards here in Australia last week and bCode was the winner. I've also used it at a bar here on a promotional night and, while it worked quite well, further thought needs to go into fitting into the workflow of the bar staff.
