What if the solution to doing better was to do less?
In this article, we review 5 automationsdesigned for multi-activity complexes (bowling, karaoke, laser game, trampoline park) with a single objective: simplify operations and increase sales, by reducing your workload.
01. Ordering: increase sales without interrupting the gaming experience
The moment of ordering always poses the same dilemma: either the customer leaves the business to order, or they give up.
Visit Self ordering kiosk accessible from the play areas is changing the way people eat and drink on site. Customers no longer have to choose between continuing to play or ordering. They order when they feel like it, without leaving the activity.
✔ Organization, you're better able to absorb peaks, without adding shifts or increasing the number of checkouts.
✔ Cipher side, you capture sales that often go unnoticed: a drink between 2 games, a board to share during a karaoke session...
"The kiosk isn't just for taking orders, it helps regulate flows throughout the site. It protects the gaming experience and supports sales without forcing the customer's hand."Our expert opinion
02. Payment: cash in faster without mobilizing your teams
If payment is not a technology problem, it is a timing problem. It often arrives just as everyone is finishing at the same time, while the teams are already managing rotations, following groups and unforeseen events.
Visit payment at table breaks down this artificial grouping. Customers pay as they go, without having to wait for a cash register to become available. Payment is spread out over time, instead of being concentrated in a few minutes.
✔ Team side, the impact is immediate. They are no longer called in urgently to cash in during rushes. They stay in their own zone, keeping to the rhythm of the service and avoiding unnecessary trips to the cash register for a task that adds nothing to the experience.
✔ Organization, you smooth out the load on the entire service. Tables are freed up more quickly, traffic flows are reduced, and sessions don't drag on. The site continues to run, even when traffic levels rise.
"Payment at the table is not about speeding up service. It's to prevent collection from becoming a bottleneck, concentrated in the same place at the same time."Our expert opinion
03. Loyalty: keep your customers coming back without multiplying promotional offers
Customers return when your establishment becomes part of their routine. A one-off offer may trigger a visit, but it doesn't create a lasting relationship.
A tiered loyalty program to establish this logic over time. The customer sees where he's at, understands what he's going to unblock and knows why it's in his interest to come back. The relationship is built over time, without forcing the customer's hand.
✔ Management side, you get away from chain promotions. You reward regularity rather than opportunistic buying. Occasional visitors become more regular, without windfall effects or unnecessary pressure on margins.
✔ Pilot side, you recover a customer base really exploitable. You can identify who is coming back, at what rate and for what purposes, enabling you to adjust your actions without multiplying campaigns or discounts.
"Loyalty doesn't become just another promotional lever. It becomes a tool for stabilizing footfall and smoothing out business over time."Our expert opinion
04. Communication: fill off-peak hours without thinking about it
Tuesday night is your worst enemy. The 4pm slot on Mondays remains empty, week after week. You know it, your teams know it, but you don't always have the time to act on it.
Visit automated sms and e-mail campaigns enable us to act effectively in these niches. You define the weak slots, trigger the appropriate messages, and the system takes care of it. No need to think about it every week, or react in a hurry.
✔ Organization, communication ceases to be reactive and becomes programmed. Messages go out before off-peak times, after a period of no visits, or to customers most likely to return during these times.
✔ Attendance, you create habits. Customers identify quieter slotsThey are more comfortable and return at these times. Activity is spread out more evenly over the week, without impacting on already busy slots.
"Communication ceases to be a late reaction. It allows you to act upstream to fill the niches you know are fragile."Our expert opinion
05. Notoriety: develop your local visibility without breaking the advertising budget
Before booking, customers look at reviews and make comparisons. They choose the place that reassures them, especially for a group or family outing.
Visit automated notice collection allows you to take action without having to call on your teams. The message is sent automatically after the visit, when the experience is still fresh. You're no longer dependent on an on-the-fly request at the end of the service.

✔ Visibility, the effect builds week by week. Notice volume on the risetheir freshness too. Your establishment will appear more often in local searches, and your future customers will find reassuring signals.
