Japanese beverage company Kirin has deployed a new vending kiosk, which enables users to take a selfie as they are ordering their drink, according to a report by Geeky Gadgets. Kirin primarily sells its own brand of beer from the kiosks.

The kiosk comes with a touchscreen that enables users to take a photo and decorate it with frames, backgrounds and other effects. Users can then share the photo on the messaging app Line, which partnered with Kirin to deliver the kiosks.

The kiosks will roll out in Japan next month and will be available in several languages for international visitors.
