Preparing Your Venue for The Christmas Season

As the festive season approaches, hospitality venues across New Zealand are gearing up for one of the busiest times of the year. With an influx of patrons and increased spending, now is the perfect time to ensure your venue is ready to deliver exceptional service while keeping operations running smoothly behind the scenes. 

Here are some key practices to help your venue thrive this festive season: 

1. Efficient Payments and Cash Handling 

More patrons in your venue can lead to long ordering and payment queues, so offering fast and convenient payment options is essential, such as contactless, mobile, card payments, and of course, cash! Installing an in-venue ATM and using a back-office Cash Recycler will ensure your cash handling remains secure, efficient, and stress-free. 

2. Elevate the Patron Experience 

Festive cheer can quickly disappear with slow service or long wait times. For venues with gaming areas, installing Cash Redemption Terminals can greatly speed up payouts, reduce waiting times, and improve overall customer satisfaction. 

3. Stay on Top of Financial Data 

Data is your best friend during the festive season. Keeping an eye on both financial and operational performance can help you identify areas that need improvement in real-time. Reporting tools offer in-depth insights, allowing you to make quick, informed decisions to keep everything running smoothly. 

The festive season is an opportunity to deliver memorable patron experiences and increase your revenue.
