The Partnership
Connect&GO provided RFID access control and experiential solutions for the 2019 Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions in Orlando, Florida. Event organizers were looking for a way to streamline access to multiple events over 6 days, as well as ways to encourage guest engagement and social sharing. They also needed to provide adequate security for high-profile guests.
Using Connect&GO’s highly flexible all-in-one attractions management platform, Konnect, Diamond Resorts was able to create a frictionless experience for guests and operators alike. Using a stored Virtual Wallet feature, Konnect centralizes data and systems for ticketing, access control, payments and more. Guests can access credentials using an RFID wearable or a simple QR code.
Throughout the 6-day Tournament of Champions, guests could use RFID wristbands to access tournament events as well as evening celebrations. The Konnect platform allowed operators to issue multiple credentials for over 3,000 guests ranging from attendees to celebrities. Additionally, roaming cameras were on-site to take photos of guests. If guests registered their social media accounts, they could have access to all photos taken throughout the high-profile event.
