Core Value and Application Scenarios
✅ For Visitors: Convenient, Secure, and Efficient
One Card, Full Access: Guests simply need to register a stored-value card or wear a wristband to "tap and go" at park entry, rides, dining, and merchandise, achieving true “one card, full park access”.
Flexible Card Options: Supports over 15 card types including regular, membership, monthly, per-visit, student, and VIP cards to meet diverse customer needs.
Loss Protection: Cards can be reported lost, with balances transferred to a new card, avoiding financial loss from lost cash.
Adaptive Billing Models:
Fixed Deduction: For rides like carousels or bumper cars, a preset amount is deducted per swipe.
Time-Based Billing: Suitable for open areas like sandpits or climbing zones, charging by the minute with automatic total calculation.
Per-Use Mode: For games like shooting or basketball toss, one use is deducted per play.
✅ For Operators: Cost Reduction, Efficiency, and Data-Driven Management
Fast Capital Recovery: The “prepaid, then spend” model significantly improves cash flow turnover and financial stability.
Centralized Settlement & Smart Analytics:
The system automatically generates revenue reports for each ride or stall, supporting daily, weekly, and monthly performance analysis.
Real-time tracking of member spending behavior helps identify frequent users and inactive cards, optimizing marketing strategies.
Eliminates Cash Handling Risks: Prevents human errors, revenue leakage, or fraud in manual cash collection, enhancing financial transparency.
Unauthorized Card Alerts: Devices automatically trigger alarms when counterfeit or unapproved cards are used, notifying staff instantly.
