If you're not currently using either of these cashless card solutions at your venue, please contact their respective support teams to get started.
What you can do
- Sell cash and time amounts directly from POS, Venue Manager or the online checkout. You can also set custom cash price range for guests to choose their own amount.
- Assign cash and time values purchased to physical cards (eg Amusement Connect or Intercard RFID cards).
- Let guests use cashless card cash balances (not bonus cash or bonus credits) to purchase other items you sell such as food and beverage or other products.
- Sell cashless game cards online to increase guest spend per head and average transaction value.
- Add game cards to party packages to boost revenue and attract group bookings.
- Automatically track and record all cashless card purchases, saving time and simplifying reporting.
Create a new cashless card
- From Venue Manager, go to Products > Create product > Cashless Card.
- Add the product name (required), descriptions and thumbnail image.
- (Optional) Add tags to help you manage the product, such as using tags to manage categories in the online checkout.
- Add the different types of cashless card variations that guests can purchase, such as preset cash or time amounts, or a custom amount between a specified range.
- Enter the cashless type name (eg $20 top up, Unlimited play for 60 MINS).
- From the Value type drop-down, select whether the amount is for Cash or Minutes or a Custom amount between a defined range. Then complete the relevant entries:
| Value type | Instructions |
|---|---|
| Cash (using Amusement Connect) | Enter the amount the guest pays in cash (eg $20) in the Price field. The Amusement Connect system will calculate the arcade credits and arcade bonus credits based on this amount. |
| Cash (using Intercard) | Enter the redeemable arcade amount in the Value field (eg $20) and the price the guest pays (eg $8) in the Price field. For example, if the redeemable arcade value is $20 and the price is $8, guests will receive $12 in bonus cash to redeem at your arcade games ($20 - $8 = $12 in bonus cash).
|
| Minutes | Enter the Value in the number of minutes (eg 30 MINS), and the Price the guest pays (eg $15). |
| Custom | For Custom, select the settings cog to enter the price range between which guests can choose their own amount. |
