Beach & Resort Prepaid Systems
Beach & Resort Prepaid Systems
Prepaid system that lets guests pay with an RFID wristband instead of cash or cards across a beach or resort facility, with every point of sale managed from one centre.
Carrying a wallet around a beach facility is both uncomfortable for the guest and a loss risk. A prepaid system gives the guest a wristband or card issued at check-in and lets them pay contactlessly at every outlet on site.
What Is Beach & Resort Prepaid Systems?
A beach and resort prepaid system keeps the guest balance in a central account and deducts from it at every point of sale: beach bar, pool bar, restaurant, shop, spa and water sports.
The guest receives a wristband on arrival, tops up a balance or charges purchases to the room account. The terminal at each outlet reads the wristband and completes the transaction in seconds, while management sees the revenue in real time.
