Professional Printing for Drink Tokens & Drink Vouchers
Whether your event is a wedding, festival, theatre performance, or party – full-colour printed drink tokens are a great addition. They give you control and security of transactions, increase the speed of service, as well as provide opportunities to apply branding in front of each ticket holder at the venue.
Drink vouchers have two sides available for printing. You could include the initials of the happy couple on the back of wedding drink tokens. Or a local business could sponsor you to advertise them on the back of festival beer tokens.
Secprint offers full-colour printed drink tokens. These tokens are available in two formats. The first format is in strips with micro-perforations, allowing for easy detachment of each voucher. The second format is in stapled booklets with micro-perforations, allowing for the detachment of each voucher individually or by strip.
We offer various security printing processes to protect against forgeries. This includes printing full colour on tear apparent stationery, numbering, and foiling. Reverse print is typically printed mono (black) and displays important event information sponsorship / logo placement.
What Are Drink Tokens Used For?
People often use personalised drink tokens instead of, or in addition to, cash payments at events. They reduce the risk of holding heavy amounts of cash on site, speed up transactions, and provide opportunities for additional advertising.
- Weddings / parties: if an open bar is out of your budget but you still want to provide for your guests, give each of them a drink token or two. All this does is tell the bar at your venue that the organisers will be paying for those drinks when the event is over. Guests will then pay for any additional drinks after that. Organisers may also have information displayed on the reverse side of the drink tokens.
- Festivals / stage performances: often there are multiple stalls using pre-bought beer tokens instead of cash. This means that transaction times are faster as bartenders don’t need to count out change. Additionally, the elimination of cash eliminates the risk of theft. Sponsoring businesses may also have their branding advertised on the reverse side of beer tokens.
Our Drink Tokens Printing Options
When ordering your custom drink tokens from Secprint, you can choose between the following finishes: 90gsm Uncoated Bond, 150gsm Silk, and Tear Apparent (Coloured Centre).
The reverse print is usually printed mono (black) and displays important event information sponsorship/logo placement.
Standard drink token sizes are typically:
- 40mm x 55mm supplied in strips with micro-perforations to release each drink token.
- 28mm x 30mm supplied in stapled booklets with micro-perforations to release each drink token separately or by strip. Drink token booklets are typically numbered on the stub.
Please see the Specification tab for a detailed description of our drink token size and booklet quantity printing options.
Please note that our listed prices do not include artwork design, which we can provide for an additional cost.

Paper Wristbands For Events: The Benefits & Who Needs Them
18/07/2023What are drink tokens?
Drink tokens are printed paper tickets to be used instead of or alongside cash payments at bars or drinks stations at various events. They typically indicate the value of the token at the venue, such as one or two pre-paid drinks, and can be designed in theme with the event, company, or brand.
Why drink tokens?
Personalised drink tokens are a secure alternative for cash payments, making them a fantastic addition to busy venues where queues may be held up by cash exchanges and eliminating the risk of theft. The use of drink tokens also means event organisers can pay for some of their guests’ drinks without having to book an entire open bar.
How do beer tokens work?
Once you have provided your guests with their beer tokens and have indicated how many drinks they are worth, your guests can then use them at their leisure throughout the event by going up to the bar and exchanging their tokens for a drink.
Since the event organisers will be paying for the drinks at the end of the night, it is up to you to coordinate with the venue to determine the types of drinks you are happy for your guests to order. You should also ensure that the venue can create a tab for independent drink tokens.
How do you give drink tokens at a wedding?
To provide your guests with drink tokens at your wedding, you should decide how many drinks you are willing to pay per guest to determine how many tokens you need and what the value of each token will be.
You can then get your drink tokens designed in keeping with the theme of your wedding and offer them to your guests at the reception by placing them at their allocated seats. We offer ticket envelopes that are perfect for presenting drink tokens stylishly and securely and allow you to add a small note instructing your guests on how to use the drink tokens at your venue.
