The Movie Unlocker

Paying for movies via credit cards are a thing of the past. Grolsch Beer from Netherlands has developed a first of its kind ‘Movie Unlocker’ technology that their consumers can use to pay for watching movies online.

Their beer bottles now come fitted with special custom made Bluetooth beacons that transmit a unique code to the movie partner website when the bottle is brought close to a laptop or smartphone that has BLE (low-energy Bluetooth) enabled. The unique code helps verify the user and gives them access to the chosen movie. 😎
