At International Bowl Expo, bowling proprietors can test drive Intercard’s Impulse hybrid card reader, which takes credit cards as well as play cards. Operators and industry leaders are saying credit card use is up because it makes payment easier than ever before.
Intercard CEO Scott Sherrod, said: “Our customers tell us that credit card use is up substantially at FEC’s and BEC’s, and I believe the trend is here to stay. Operators find that credit card users spend more on advance purchases via E-commerce as well as in their centres.”
Intercard customers who have tested the Impulse reader have experienced revenue increases of up to 20% by making it easier for guests to pay and play.
Sherrod added: “I believe the customer experience will always be your best advertising, and the Impulse is the next big trend.”
“The ability to use credit cards right at the reader will revolutionise our industry.”
From June 29-30 an Intercard team headed by Sherrod and North America sales manager, Bill Allen will be at Bowl Expo in the Las Vegas Convention Centre at booth #910.
