CASHLESS REFUND POLICY

PROCEDURES FOR

CUP REFUND

Each reusable cup costs €3.00.

At the end of each day or at the end of the event, you can return it and get your money back — as long as you present both the cup and the receipt together — by following these steps:

1. Cup Purchase

When you buy the cup, you will receive a receipt with a QR code (one per cup). We recommend taking a photo of the QR code in case you lose the paper receipt. This is useful if you buy a cup for someone else and you are not together at the time of return. You can only get your money back by presenting both the cup and the receipt.

2. Cup Return

DEBIT OR CREDIT CARD

  • Return the cup in the designated container near the main entrance.

  • Show the QR code to the assistant — they will scan it to validate the return.

  • You will automatically receive your money back on the same card used to pay (debit/credit).

CASHLESS CARD OR MB WAY

In these cases, no QR code is printed and no cash refunds will be made during the event.
The cup value will be refunded as credit on the card. Later, you can claim a cash refund on the refund website.
