Add pre-paid digital amounts onto scannable objects such as swipe cards or RFID fobs. Guests can top up amounts and use them to purchase items at POS. This guide shows you how to set up a wallet product for guests to use at your venue.
How guests use wallets
A wallet is a means of assigning a monetary value to a scannable object such as a swipe card or RFID fob which can be used to provide payment at POS .
Guests can purchase and load money on their wallets and use them to purchase items at your venue. They can quickly and easily top up their wallets. They also allow for families or groups to share the wallet's value by linking it in ROLLER to multiple scannable cards.
Keep in mind
- You can't purchase a wallet using a discount or any complimentary payment types.
- If a wallet is purchased online, an ID will need to be assigned to the wallet at POS before the wallet can be used.
- Wallets can only be used as a payment method at POS and cannot be used for purchases on a self-serve kiosk, online checkout or via Venue Manager.
