1. Track & Adhere to Limited Attraction Capacity

Many attractions opening are limiting attendance to 25% - 50% of park capacity to maintain social distancing guidelines. Consider utilizing wristbands to keep track of the number of guests allowed in your venue at a given time. For example, brightly-colored wristbands give you the opportunity to identify and color-code each guest or group that enters your doors to make sure guests and staff adhere to the mandatory cap.

2. Identify and Categorize Limited-Time Attractions

Venues like theme parks, water parks, museums, and family entertainment centers are instituting not only daily capacity limits, but are introducing split attendance times as well. For instance, if your guests follow a pattern of arriving in the morning and leaving in the evening, you may want to split your day into morning and afternoon admissions. Some smaller venues may limit dwell time to a couple hours to better manage and track flow. Wristbands can play a key role in assisting with these new attendance procedures during these unprecedented times. Brightly-colored wristbands are the ideal visual identifier for staff. Issue a certain color wristband for each different time slot. Blue wristbands may categorize guests that arrive in the morning, and yellow may indicate afternoon hours.

3. Custom Print Wristbands On-Demand and On-Site

Another beneficial solution is to customize print-on-demand wristbands on-site at your venue. Designed to be used with a compatible direct thermal printer, you can print the exact number of wristbands you want when you need them. Offered in a variety of bright colors, consider implementing a color-coding system where you can easily interchange wristbands depending on the day, hour, group, or access area. Since you are able to print on-demand, colors can be changed as often as needed and staff can easily see which guests should be in the park or in a certain area at a given time.

4. Capture Guest Capacity with Barcodes

Print unique barcodes, QR codes, and text, (like arrival time, access type, or group name); onto each wristband to better manage guest capacity. Barcoding allows your attraction the opportunity to not only capture the number of guests in your venue and set a cap, but it can also be used to connect guests’ wristbands to your point of sale system to keep track of occupancy levels.

5. Enhance Guest Experience with RFID Applications

RFID wristbands offer also have the ability to manage guest capacity. RFID wristband dispensing kiosks allow you to reduce direct contact with your staff and track how many wristbands are dispensed. RFID checkpoints can even be installed to track attendance and the flow of foot traffic going into different locations. And RFID wristbands enable cashless point-of-sale throughout your venue, further reducing direct contact and providing guest convenience for all of their food and merchandise purchases.

6. Assist with Staff Rotation and Timed Shifts

Since parks will be operating with limited attendance, the number of employees may also be reduced. Wristbands, and/or customized ID holders, lanyards, or badges can also assist with staff rotation based on staggered or timed shifts, or groups. These identification solutions can also be customized with important safety and health information to enhance guest’s peace of mind and promote healthy reminders for all.
