Our Clients
For more than a decade, Great Wolf Lodge has incorporated PDC’s RFID wristband solutions at ten nation-wide facilities (and counting) helping to grow their revenue while enhancing the guest experience. Using PDC’s Smart® RFID Wristband System, Great Wolf Lodge reaps the following bottom line benefits: increased purchases, enhanced efficiency, and a bolstering brand image.
Through PDC’s state-of-the-art RFID technology, Dorney Park guests can load funds to their PDC Smart® Wristbands via self-service PDC Smart® Kiosks placed throughout their venue to make quick cash-free purchases at restaurants, food carts, gift shops and more. The new program has increased impulse purchases, reduced transaction times, and shortened food and services queues.
