A Quick Story #
On a busy weekend morning, the ticket line was already stretching far beyond the entrance. Guests were paying for tickets, then moving to another counter to collect their NFC wristbands. The process slowed everything down, and guests were growing impatient before they even entered the venue.
After switching to instant NFC wristband activation at the box office, everything changed. Now, guests could pay, receive an activated wristband containing their ticket and add-ons, and get their printed ticket – all in less than a minute. Lines moved quickly, staff had more time to assist guests, and the experience started off on the right note.
