Together with the event organizer, MCE GmbH—the “Ideenschmiede”—we developed a concept to promote the digital ordering and payment solution on-site, ranging from removable stickers with QR codes for all beer tables to signage for the “Fastlane” at the beverage stands. Our sizzly was customized with the Flammende Sterne brand’s look and feel, and the deposit settlement process was adapted to the existing procedures at the stands.
