Introduction

CLOUD PASS, operated by Uniaim, has recently launched an innovative ticket vending machine that supports wristband ticket issuance. This advancement marks a significant step in simplifying ticket processing for various activities, tourist attractions, and mid-scale events where wristbands are essential for managing entry and exit efficiently.

Key Features of the New Vending Machine

The newly developed vending machine allows for simultaneous issuance of both wristband tickets and traditional paper tickets, addressing the previous limitations where only paper tickets were supported. This feature is particularly beneficial in locations focusing on hands-free movement, such as amusement parks and live events.

Pricing and Payment Methods

• - Model: Wristband Ticket Vending Machine (21 inches)
• - Price: ¥1,990,000 (excluding tax)
• - Payment Options: Cash (new bills), credit card, QR codes, and electronic money (currently under testing)
• - Operation: Touch panel interface supporting both types of tickets.

This machine not only supports ticket sales but also features integrated management of sales channels, date specifications, timed billing, and translation functions to cater to an international audience.

Enhanced Usability with Dual Ticketing

The ability to issue a paper ticket alongside a wristband ticket adds flexibility to the user experience. For example:

• - The paper ticket can serve multiple purposes including:

- Exchange voucher for drinks, food, or souvenirs.
- Distribution of guides such as floor maps or FAQs.
- Multi-language printed information for visitors.
- Offering special experience tickets or guiding visitors to specific attractions.

Benefits for Event Operators

By employing wristbands for entry management, event operators can ensure a smoother process for attendees, allowing them to move through entry points without having to manage physical tickets. This system also improves operational efficiency, significantly reducing the burden on staff while minimizing the chances of miscommunication.

• - Sales Optimization: Operators can leverage the paper tickets for promotional opportunities, such as drink vouchers or discounts, assisting in constructing secondary sales pathways through QR codes leading to raffles or reservation pages.

Visitor Experience Enhancement

From the visitor's perspective, the introduction of wristbands makes entry easier and more secure, particularly during peak times. Visitors can confirm essential information quickly via the printed paper tickets, removing the need to rely on mobile devices for crucial details, which is especially considerate for those unfamiliar with smartphones.

Collaboration with DNP's Automated Photo System

The integration with DNP Photo Imaging Japan's automated photography system allows visitors to enjoy a seamless experience from entry through to capturing memories of their time spent at the venue. This collaboration ensures that visitors not only get to enjoy activities but can also cherish these moments through photographs taken automatically.

The newly introduced wristband ticket vendor has been successfully implemented at SkyWalker7058 in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture. This facility stands out as a next-generation athletic experience venue, providing an indoor environment that is engaging yet safe for all ages.
