What if there was a turnkey redemption program that turned an operational burden into a competitive advantage?

Streamlined recycling solutions for retailers.

Traditional in-store beverage container recycling centers are a necessary evil for most grocers subject to bottle bill laws. Whether they consist of staffed recycling rooms, or spaces designated for reverse vending machines (RVMs), they look unsightly, occupy valuable space, increase personnel demands, and breed customer and store-associate frustration. That’s why CLYNK created an entirely new container recycling paradigm. A modern, proven approach designed to make recycling and redemption irresistible to the consumer and a compelling value proposition for the grocer and beverage manufacturer/distributor.

With CLYNK’s Bag Drop, we eliminate the operational headaches of inoperable machines and customer service hassles by taking redemption out of your store and eliminating significant labor costs. We do this while providing customers with a best-in-class redemption experience; one that is efficient, modern, and saves valuable time. This is a competitive differentiator that drives brand affinity and superior customer satisfaction results, as measured by a Net Promoter score of 75!

Consumers love our patented bag drop process, which allows them to use CLYNK’s Redemption Stations in 15 seconds or less. CLYNK Redemption Stations, conveniently located outside your store, provide a quicker and cleaner way to redeem. Our Drop & Shop™ experience drives incremental store traffic and is an additional driver of brand loyalty and customer satisfaction.

  • CLYNK Drives Foot Traffic: Each drop-off is a visit that can be capitalized upon for sales.
  • CLYNK Creates a Wallet for In-Store Spend: CLYNKers save their funds in their accounts and withdraw in larger increments.
  • CLYNK Reinforces Loyalty: Customers appreciate the convenience of Bag Drop.
  • CLYNK Provides Unique Data: Because of CLYNK’s wealth of data, we can also provide insights on beverage consumption that can be used for private-label strategies.

Testimonials

"Great idea for business, environment, and everyone seems to win. This is a simple concept for consumers, suppliers, and producers that picks up all the pieces and the end product is returning the cash back so it can be spent over and over."
