V Festival required a “cashless solution” for their VIP area at the recent series of Festivals around Australia.
Wizid developed a barcode solution where that specific area of the event became cashless. Wizid Guideposts were preset to cover a wide range of drinks, divided into 15 classifications. Each drink style was issued with a barcode & eligible patrons issued with barcoded wristbands, all with a previously allocated set number of drinks applicable to the barcoded wristband.
The patron went to the bar, ordered their drinks, the barcode allocated for the ordered drink was then scanned ( loading the order ), the patrons barcoded wristband was then scanned. If the Wizid Guidepost light turned green, the drinks were served, if red the patron was denied service as they had already received their allocated drinks previously or a sponsors spend limit had been reached.
Bar staff only needed to check the Guidepost lights, meanwhile the Guideposts were keeping a running total for the various sponsors, who could control the amount of their spending. No money was changing hands & an accurate record of drinks served was instantly available, along with other parameters preset with the organisers. Data was captured for later marketing & sponsorship opportunities
