1 | Why park ticketing add-ons drive revenue #
- Bigger baskets: Families and school groups usually want more than entry—think photo passes, lockers, or unlimited slides.
- Friction-free: Oveit embeds every add-on in the same QR/RFID credential, so guests skip paper vouchers and pay-again queues.
- Real-time control: Turnstiles and handheld scanners instantly validate how many rides or perks remain.
2 | Prerequisites for theme park upsells #
Requirement | Details |
---|---|
Oveit account | Module: Attractions enabled |
At least one base ticket | e.g., General Access |
List of upsell items | Extra rides, VR arcade, branded T-shirts |
3 | Create your first ticket add-on (step-by-step) #
- Open the ticket you want to enhance (Tickets → Edit).
- Scroll to Add-ons → Create add-on.
- Name the perk (e.g., Extra Rides – 3 pack).
- Price it ($20 in the demo video).
- Limit it (optional)—e.g., max 3 packs per guest.
- Save. The add-on now shows during checkout and attaches to the same QR/RFID wristband.
Example bundle #
Ticket | Included add-on | Upsell offer |
---|---|---|
General Access | 3 standard rides | “+3 extra rides for $20” |
All-Day Splash Pass | Unlimited slides | “Commemorative beach towel $35” |
4 | Turnstile & scanner integration #
- Oveit’s API syncs add-on balances in real time—no separate codes.
- Guests present the same wristband or phone at each ride gate; the system debits remaining rides automatically.
5 | Best practices for theme-park upsells #
- Anchor value—include a small number of rides free, then sell top-ups.
- Bundle merchandise—souvenir photos or T-shirts convert best when offered at checkout, not the gift shop exit.
- Highlight savings—use “Save 20 % vs. on-site price” copy beside each add-on.
- Segment by ticket—offer locker rental on waterpark passes; skip it for dry attractions.
- Use urgency—limited-edition merch or early-bird ride packs drive faster purchase decisions.
