Abstract
Disclosed is a disbursing system including a dispensing unit and a read area having at least two readers. Each of the at least two readers is configured to generate a signal when detecting a marker disposed on a beverage container. The beverage container includes at least two markers. The system includes a switch in electro-mechanical connection with the dispensing unit. The system includes a control module in operative connection with the switch and in communication with the at least two readers. When the at least two readers generate at least two signals detecting at least two markers, the control module actuates the switch.
