Go cashless with fast, flexible cash-to-card kiosks that help guests pay quicker, stay longer, and spend more—while you cut costs and increase revenue.

Faster Payments, Happier Guests

Guests are here to have fun—not fumble with cash. Families want quick checkouts, kids want to jump into games, and no one wants to wait for change.

That’s where cashless payments for venues make all the difference. With cash-to-card kiosks and tap-and-go tools, lines keep moving—and your revenue keeps growing.

Faster Payments. Bigger Profits. Better Guest Experiences.

With digital payment solutions from Ready Credit, you can simplify payments, reduce wait times, and watch your sales grow.

  • No More Waiting, Just Playing:

    Faster payments mean less time standing around and more time enjoying games and seeing the show.

  • Tap, Pay, Repeat:

    With RFID wristbands or cards, paying is just a tap away..

  • The Freedom to Spend More:

    Guests can transfer unused funds to a prepaid debit card they can use anywhere Visa or Mastercard is accepted, giving them the confidence to load and spend more.

  • Safer Operations With Fewer Risks:

    No cash means fewer chances for theft, errors, or drawer discrepancies.

  • Faster, More Efficient Closing:

    With no cash to count or reconcile, managers can close out registers quickly and focus more on delivering exceptional guest experiences.

  • Cut Cash, Cut Costs:

    Cash handling comes with hidden costs—security, storage, and extra labor. Removing cash transactions saves money and simplifies day-to-day operations.

FEC & Event Cashless Payment FAQ

FEC cash-to-card solutions make payments effortless. Guests can load funds at self-service kiosks in seconds and use their cards anywhere in your facility. Families can distribute funds across multiple cards, giving kids the freedom to play and pay on their own—no need to share a wallet or wait for a parent to make purchases. With faster transactions and shorter lines, everyone wins.

With ReadyFLEX®, staff can process cash-to-card transactions anywhere on site using mobile devices—no kiosk required. That means shorter lines, fewer operational bottlenecks, and a more seamless payment experience for attendees.

ReadyFLEX® is designed for events where space is limited or where permanent kiosks aren’t an option. Staff can process cash-to-card transactions using mobile devices, making it a perfect solution for festivals, stadiums, and temporary event spaces.

ReadyFLEX® runs on standard mobile devices with Wi-Fi or internet access, meaning there’s no need for complex hardware installs. Integration is quick and non-disruptive.

With features like cash-to-card kiosks and tap-and-go RFID devices, FEC cashless solutions make paying a breeze. That means your guests can spend more time enjoying the fun and less time stuck at the register.

Traditional cash management creates unnecessary overhead—from armored transport and miscounts to staff labor and end-of-day reconciliation. Switching to a cashless model streamlines operations, enhances security, and creates a smoother experience for guests and staff alike.

Adopting cash-to-card for FECs simplifies operations by eliminating cash handling, reducing fraud risks, and eliminating manual reconciliation. It’s all about efficiency, giving your managers the freedom to focus on delivering the best guest experience possible.

Ready Credit’s FEC cash-to-card solutions reduce the hidden costs of cash handling, like labor, security, and storage. By eliminating manual cash processes, family entertainment centers can save on staffing expenses, minimize losses from theft or errors, and streamline operations.

Typically, cards dispensed from cash-to-card kiosks are non-reloadable. Guests can load a set amount onto the card, but once the balance is used, a new card must be obtained.

Prepaid cards usually remain active for several months or until the balance is depleted. The exact expiration date is printed on the front of the card. To check your card balance or view transaction history, visit RCBalance.com.

Note: After 92 consecutive days of no transaction activity, a $3.95 monthly fee will be deducted from the card balance.

Our cards can be used at any business that accepts prepaid debit cards. Mastercard ReadyCARD® can be used anywhere Debit Mastercard is accepted. Visa ReadyCARD® can be used anywhere Debit Visa is accepted.

Self-service kiosks and mobile handhelds are designed for fast throughput. Most transactions take under 60 seconds, reducing long queues during peak times like pre-show, intermission, or vendor rushes. Additional units can be deployed in high-traffic zones for surge management.
