They are.I'm assuming RFID chips must be really cheap. This seems like a lot of trouble to go to when you're allowing 4 refills. I can't imagine having 4 refills in one hour.
Prevent abuse of the guest-facing dispensers. Chipping the cups allows the dispensers to refuse to dispense non-water to containers without the chips.I haven't really been following the mug thing. A use we never get them bit why the chip in a paper cup too? What would be the point?

They are.
A quick Google search shows a retail cost of $193.52 for a roll of 1000, or roughly $0.19 each (these are for 4x2 sticker-based RFID labels, which are likely quite a bit more costly than the individual chips built into the paper cups.)

What I don't understand is that the RFID chip is only for the pop machine. You can still use old mugs for coffee and hot chocolate as there is no reader for them.

Even just last week I saw people with last years mugs filling them with coffee and hot chocolate. I would think that their cost level on those items would be higher than the pop machine. If your gonna do it than do it all at once would be my plan. Rob
