A digital deposit return scheme, or digital DRS, refers to a type of DRS design that gives consumers the ability to scan a serialised code on a drinks container using a smartphone app to redeem a financial deposit.
The consumer would then place the container in their existing kerbside recycling bin instead of having to travel to a return point to redeem the deposit, such as an in-store reverse vending machine, like with a traditional scheme.
