XBall - Ball machine module and loyalty card system

The ball dispenser is the most lucrative asset at any driving range, but if it is not managed properly it may not achieve its full potential. XBall can provide range operators with the management tools they need to maximise dispenser profitability and increase customer loyalty. Use XBall to integrate with both EGM and Rangeservant machines.

Xball can operate as a stand-alone module, or be integrated with XPos to provide a comprehensive loyalty card system. It will allow you to operate a flexible pricing structure, offering different prices and different basket sizes depending on the customer and time of day, such as ‘happy hours’ for loyal customers.

Meanwhile, the loyalty system can be used to encourage customers to make more use of the range by offering them discounted pre-payment rates, and can generate thousands of pounds worth of prepaid sales, helping your cash flow.

Increase custom in quiet periods, or generate pre-paid sales to improve cash flow

When combined with XPOS, you can run a cash or token-free system and simplify your administration. The loyalty cards can be swiped at the shop to buy credit or check balances, and then used to pay for a variety of different baskets. The voucher system makes use of the dispenser’s key pad, eliminating costly tokens.

XBall can also provide a wealth of analysis about your range usage. You can monitor how many balls customers use over a given period. The dispensing history will identify your busy and quiet periods, so that you can price your balls to maximize profitability.

Built with the latest Microsoft technologies, XBall is a simple to use and very reliable, with a proven track record. During the month of the 2006 Open, a single system dispensed over 550,000 balls without missing a beat.
