Today, I summarize some benefits RFID wristbands can bring to your hotel and resort, theme park or tourist attraction.

Change Guest's Check-in Experience

Whether it is a hotel, theme park or resort, it is necessary to go through entry procedures or check admission tickets, etc., which frustrates guests and brings them a bad experience in the complicated admission process.

When RFID technology is adopted, the RFID system will speed up access control. For example: RFID wristbands or RFID cards can be pre-authorized and mailed to customers, allowing them to self-check in upon arrival. This gives your guests control over the length of their stay, which can reduce staff costs and improve first impressions. If an RFID wristband or card is lost or stolen, it can be easily reprogrammed.

An RFID Wristband Meets All the Wearer's Needs

The introduction of RFID in a resort or theme park eliminates the need for visitors to carry multiple items, reducing the process and time for access control. Now, credit cards, room keys and locker keys can be integrated into a single RFID wristband or RFID card for ultimate convenience for customers. The customer's experience will be instantly improved, and eventually they will become loyal customers of the merchant.

Cashless Payment

No need to worry about handling wet cash or carrying a wallet with you. According to statistics, using RFID wristbands instead of cash payment increases the average per capita expenditure by 15-30%.

Security

When guests only need to wear a wristband, there is no need to carry cash, credit cards or even wallets, reducing the chance of theft and fraud. If an RFID wristband is lost or stolen, the RFID system can quickly cancel and reissue. If the child gets lost, parents can go to the customer service center for help, and the staff can use the RFID wristband to determine the child's location and help the parent and child reunite. A parent's RFID wristband can be attached to a child's wristband, preventing minors from entering certain areas or leaving the perimeter without a parent.
