The BARS Compliance Program sends 21–25-year-old Checkers into tobacco and alcohol retailers or restaurant locations once or twice each month to conduct mock purchases of tobacco products or alcohol. The purpose of this is to monitor employees and see if they ask for the customer's ID prior to asking for money to complete the sale. If the ID is requested, the employee receives a Green Card. If not, a Red Card is given.
