    In exchange for the refusal given, the incentive recycler will allow the user to choose, thanks to the touch screen system, a discount voucher to be presented at the ticket offices for the purchase of an EAV travel ticket, or to be used at the merchants participating in the project. .

    The Cards are available free of charge and are issued by the Eav Infopoint in Montesanto. It is also possible to download the form from the Eav website and deliver it filled in to the Infopoint box. The available coupons and the number of ecopoints corresponding to the different coupons are listed on the Eav website and on the eco-compactor monitor. 


    On the touch screen of the eco-compactor the user can consult his credit and print the coupons to be used for the prizes and by presenting the coupon at the cash desk or at the ticket office at the time of payment, you will be entitled to the promotion provided.
