Travelling funfairs and seaside amusement arcades take lots of small payments for rides, games, tokens and snacks, often from families in a hurry and at busy weekends and holidays. Many still run on cash, and travelling fairs move from town to town. A payments app that takes quick payments by QR code, sells ride wristbands and bundles by link and works wherever the fair sets up can win these operators, and every visitor who pays sees your app.

Take quick payments by QR code
A QR code at each ride or kiosk lets families pay from their phone in seconds, so queues move faster.

Sell wristbands and bundles ahead
A payment link for a wristband or ride bundle lets families pay before they arrive and spend less time at the pay booth.
Grow through family days out
Funfairs and arcades sit alongside trampoline parks, zoos and seaside cafés, and the same families visit many of them. One operator on your app can introduce the others.
