- The no-registration dashboard demo uses a fictional bar; edits remain in the visitor’s browser rather than affecting a live venue.
Field notes
The proposed flow starts with staff checking age and issuing a card; guests tap it, pour in 30 ml increments, and settle the recorded amount on departure. The site says pours and payment can continue locally during an internet outage, while a no-registration demo lets visitors inspect a fictional bar dashboard; its edits stay in the browser. Listed starting costs are ¥500,000 for one tap and ¥9,800 monthly for up to four taps, excluding beer equipment and construction.
