Semnox Solutions, a technology provider for the entertainment and amusement industry, has grown its international presence by successfully deploying its Parafait venue management system at Ākēdo Arcade, securing its first client in Finland.
Ākēdo Arcade is a lively entertainment space featuring a variety of attractions, including classic arcade games, sports and racing titles, dance and skill challenges, shooting games, and cutting-edge virtual reality (VR) experiences. It aims to foster a social and motivating atmosphere suitable for gamers of all ages and skill levels.
“Before choosing Semnox, we conducted extensive research on various cashless systems,” says Jani Heikkilä, director at Ākēdo Arcade. “Semnox clearly stood out with its advanced technology and the added advantage of a fully integrated e-commerce platform.”
Semnox’s Parafait system proved to be the perfect solution for the arcade’s operational requirements, thanks to its seamless cashless experience and comprehensive online tools.
A smooth transition
To cater to its expanding business, Ākēdo Arcade installed Semnox’s Lumin readers on 35 games and set up a self-service kiosk, allowing guests to easily purchase and recharge cards. Additionally, the platform provides in-depth analytics and reporting to support management and enhance the guest experience.
“We are now live with the system, and we are happy to say that our expectations have been met,” says Heikkilä. “The transition has been smooth, and the support has been excellent. We are confident we made the right choice with Semnox.”
“We’re excited to welcome Ākēdo Arcade as our first client in Finland,” says Vinayaka Kamath, business head for UK & Europe at Semnox Solutions. “Their vision aligns perfectly with our mission to empower entertainment venues with smart, integrated technology, and we look forward to supporting their growth.”
With this launch, Semnox further cements its position as a global leader in arcade and entertainment venue technology, offering operators scalable, reliable, and integrated solutions.
In partnership with Falco Playhub Solutions, Semnox also recently delivered integrated systems that enhance the guest experience at Hop Land, a vibrant new family entertainment centre in Saudi Arabia.
