Strategic move
The partnership represents a strategic move towards more permanent installation deployments for Connect&GO.
The company also recently utilised its “Parkpass” connected-experience solution at multiple amusement parks in North America.
RFID is one of a number of digital innovations that are becoming increasingly popular solutions. It is used for everything from monitoring crowd capacity to increasing consumer engagement and generating secondary revenue. Connect&GO uses primarily RFID technology to provide customers of major attractions and events with a “frictionless experience” of access control, cashless payment and experiential activations.
In April, the company opened a new office in Paris which will be the headquarters for its European operations.
