Barkeep MAST Permit Tracker
For Washington clubs and adult venues that serve alcohol

Class 12 pours. Class 13 does not.

Barkeep keeps every server's MAST permit - its class, the 60 days a new hire has, the five years it lasts, the upgrade at 21 - and will not put anyone on a shift their permit does not allow that day.

The problem

No grace period, ever.

Washington wants a MAST permit from anyone who serves, mixes, sells or supervises alcohol on the premises, within 60 days of hire. Class 13 holders, 18 to 20, may serve but not mix or pour. A permit lasts five years and the day after it runs out, nobody may work on it.

5 years

a permit lasts; it is not renewed, a new class is taken.

Will not put a permit where it may not go.

Not a reminder. A shift refuses anyone with no permit in force that day and past their 60 days, anyone whose permit has run out, and any Class 13 holder behind the bar - even one who has turned 21 and not yet upgraded. A Class 12 is refused to anyone under 21. There is no override.

How it works

Hire, permit, rota

Add the new hire

Their first day starts the 60 days; under 21, the day they turn 21.

Record the permit

Class 12 or 13 and the issue date. It runs five years.

Build the rota

Floor or bar, only where the permit allows on that date.

What it will never do

It keeps the dates. Nothing more.

Barkeep holds names, classes and dates.

It trains nobody.Your staff take an LCB-approved class.
It reports nothing to the LCB.It is your own record.
It is not a payroll or rota system.It is the check on who may serve and pour.
It is not legal advice.It is the record and the gate.

Questions

The ones we actually get asked

What may a Class 13 holder do?

Serve, but not mix or pour. Barkeep keeps them on the floor until a Class 12 is recorded.

What about California?

California has its own program in this family, Tapster. Barkeep is the Washington tracker.

Is this legal advice?

No. It is the record and the gate in front of the rota.

What do I actually get when I pay?

The demo on this page is the whole program, running on invented records. Paying gets you a licence key — one line of text, on your screen as soon as the payment confirms: the checkout brings you back to our thank-you page, you type your business name and the key appears. Paste it into the program and from then on it keeps your own records. Until then, nothing you type into it is kept.

The key is checked inside the page, on your own machine. It never calls us, so there is still no account and nothing about your business goes anywhere. If you ever stop paying, your records stay exactly where they are, read-only, and Export still hands you every one of them.

One permit has run out, one server is past 60 days with none, and one just turned 21 and is still on a Class 13.
