The Bottle Keep Nightmare

Running bottle keep on paper, spreadsheets, or old POS software is chaos. Customers claim bottles that aren’t theirs. Staff can’t find the right bottle fast. Bottles expire silently. Revenue walks out the door.

  • Customer walks in: "Where’s my Hibiki?" — staff frantically flips through a logbook
  • New staff can’t identify a regular or find their bottle without asking 3 people
  • Bottles expire because nobody tracked the keep-until date — loss of revenue
  • Disputes: "That’s not my bottle level" — no photo evidence, no log
  • Multiple locations/branches — no way to see a customer’s bottles across venues
  • Manual bottle inventory takes hours and is always slightly wrong
  • POS systems "support" bottle keep but the UX is painful — staff avoid using it

Bottle Keep That Actually Works

FullGuest’s bottle keep is the fastest, most reliable system your bar staff will ever use. Scan a bottle QR, select the customer, add a photo, done. When the customer returns, one search shows every bottle they own, where it is, and how much is left.

  • Add a bottle in 15 seconds — customer name, brand, level, storage location, photo
  • Search by customer name, phone, or bottle — results in milliseconds
  • Auto-expiry tracking — alerts 30/60/90 days before keep deadline
  • Photos on every check-in and check-out — no more disputes
  • Works across multiple venues — customer’s bottles visible wherever they visit
  • Connected to AI Captain — customer asks "is my Macallan still here?" and gets an instant answer
  • Full history per bottle — every time it was poured, by whom, how much
  • Built-in customer phone number + VIP tagging — treat regulars like regulars

Company Brain

Your bar on autopilot — you stay in control

It watches every tab, pour and shift — flagging the shrinkage behind the bar, the promos that don’t pay for themselves, and the nights you’re under- or over-staffed.

It works the back office the way a seasoned operator would — every day, across every number. It drafts the fix and does the busywork; nothing touches your menu, prices or bookings until you approve. It proposes. You dispose.

Watches
Every order, shift, folio and store — 24/7, so nothing slips past.
Flags
Where money is leaking and what to fix — in plain language, with the numbers.
Acts
Drafts the action and handles the busywork — you approve with one tap.

One login, one bill

Replaces the stack you're paying for now

Most bars run on six or more separate subscriptions that barely talk to each other. FullGuest does the lot — so you cut cost, cut logins, and finally get every number in one place.

Bottle Keep FAQs

How does bottle keep integrate with customer ordering?+

Every customer’s bottles are linked to their phone number and profile. When they sit down and order via QR, the AI Captain knows they have a bottle in storage. Customer asks "is my Hibiki still there?" — AI confirms instantly. When they order a pour, it logs against their bottle automatically.

What about multi-branch bars with customers who visit all locations?+

FullGuest supports multi-location bottle keep. A customer’s bottles are linked to their phone number, so if they have a Macallan at your Mumbai branch and walk into your Delhi branch, staff sees both. You can configure rules — e.g., bottles can only be poured at the location they’re stored.

How does expiry tracking work?+

You configure the keep period (e.g., 90 days, 6 months, 1 year) per bottle type or per customer tier (VIPs get longer). The system auto-calculates the expiry date on check-in. Alerts fire at 90, 60, 30, 7 days before expiry. You can configure auto-SMS/WhatsApp reminders to the customer to come redeem.

Can staff identify regulars without asking their name?+

If your regulars check in via QR (scan a table QR to order, or scan a welcome QR at the door), the system auto-identifies them. Staff gets a notification: "VIP Rajesh just arrived — owns 2 bottles: Hibiki Harmony at shelf B3, and Lagavulin 16 at shelf B7." Treat them like royalty from minute one.

What about theft or staff fraud?+

Every transaction logs the staff ID, photo of the bottle, timestamp, and storage location. Audit reports show all movements. Unusual patterns (e.g., frequent pours without customer check-in) surface in dashboards. It’s dispute-proof and fraud-resistant.

How is this different from Toast, Square, or my existing POS?+

Most POS systems "support" bottle keep as a bolt-on feature — the UX is painful and staff avoid using it. FullGuest is built around the actual bartender workflow: fast search, photo-first, mobile-optimized. Plus it integrates with our AI Captain so customers can self-check their bottles via QR chat. It’s a different category of product, not a POS feature.

Does this work for wine collections / cellar management?+

Yes. Works equally well for whisky bottles, wine collections, premium spirits. Wine clubs and fine-dining restaurants use it for cellar-stored wines that customers have bought in advance or are storing for future visits.

How do customers view their bottles?+

Two ways: (1) They can ask the AI Captain via chat — "what bottles do I have here?" — and get an instant list with photos. (2) They get a simple customer portal at fullguest.com/m/your-bar/my-bottles where they see everything.
