Application of RFID Wristband Tags Reduces Queues in Parks

Recently, a new park in Louisiana called Moncus Park opened to the public, allowing people to purchase food and beverages with a flick of an RFID wristband tag. Moncas Park, formerly used as a commercial development, is now a non-profit park that began construction in March 2018.

Since food and alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are provided by local food vendors, entry is $10 per person, but entertainment is free, so people need an easy way to buy food and beverages. The application of RFID wristband tags is aimed at reducing queues and crowds at sales counters, and more importantly, tracking sales, people statistics and trends.

Upon arrival, visitors are given an RFID wristband with a unique ID number linked to their account in the park's software. When a family attends an event, each family member will have their own RFID wristband and can also have their own e-wallet. About 40 RFID reading devices are also installed in the park. To make a transaction, one visitor places an order and then, when paying, taps the wristband against a nearby RFID reader to obtain a unique ID number and automatically deduct the corresponding sale amount from the digital wallet. All the data is then transmitted to the event organizer's server, where users can view details such as what was purchased, when and who was purchased, as well as demographics of the buyers (such as their gender and age). Each food supplier has two RFID readers for payment.

The RFID solution is designed to make purchasing easier and faster than standard payment systems, thereby reducing queues. Reducing queues not only makes sales faster and more convenient, but is also important in preventing the spread of disease.

RFID Technology Optimizes Self-service in Restaurants

Smokin' Oak Wood-Fired Pizza & Taproom is a growing franchise that combines a pizzeria with a self-serve bar wall, offering fast casual dining across the United States. The company operates five stores and has plans to expand as many as 75 stores over the next few years.
