Choose how you’d like to receive your 10-cent refund, or donate it to a charity or community group.
Vouchers are generated instantly, and can be redeemed at participating stores such as your local supermarket.
These can be used towards your purchase, or they can often be exchanged for cash in store. No personal details are required.
This is the most common payment type at reverse vending machines.
Many depots, over-the-counter sites, and pop-up refund points can offer your refund in cash after they count your eligible drink containers on the spot.
Each zone operator has an app on both Android and iOS.
Use the apps to receive electronic payments, donate your refund, and find refund points.
PayPal may also be available at some refund points.
Donate your refund
to a registered charity or community organisation to support at your local refund point, or use our donation partner search tool. Registered donation partners can also share their donation partner ID with you directly.
Donate your containers
to a community group directly. Many organisations fundraise by collecting eligible containers.
