5 Ways an Activate Installation Boosts Revenue for Family Entertainment Centers

As a Family Entertainment Center (FEC) or arcade owner, your primary goals are to increase foot traffic, maximize per-capita spending, and encourage repeat visits. In a competitive market, adding a “wow-factor” attraction is key. As a premier interactive arcade equipment supplier, we’ve identified Activate as a powerful revenue-generating engine. Here’s how investing in an Activate experience delivers a significant return on investment (ROI).
1. Attract a High-Value Demographic
While traditional arcades appeal to a specific audience, Activate broadens your reach significantly. It’s a magnet for:

  • Teens and Young Adults: This demographic craves social, shareable experiences.
  • Families: Parents are looking for activities that get their kids moving and foster teamwork.
  • Corporate Groups: Activate is a turnkey solution for companies seeking unique and effective team-building exercises.
    This wider appeal means more bookings across different times of the day and week, filling traditionally slower periods.
    2. Command Premium Pricing and Drive High Throughput
    Activate is not a low-cost, token-based game. It’s a premium, timed experience that justifies a higher price point (e.g., per person for a 75-minute session). The structured, session-based model allows for predictable scheduling and high guest throughput, maximizing the revenue potential of your floor space.
    3. Fuel Repeat Business with Dynamic Content
    One-and-done attractions struggle to build loyalty. Activate is designed for replayability. The integrated RFID wristband system tracks individual and group scores, creating a competitive leaderboard that entices players to return and beat their personal best or challenge rival teams. With a continuously updated library of games, there’s always a new challenge waiting.
    4. Generate Free Marketing via Social Media
    Activate is inherently “Instagrammable.” The futuristic lighting, fast-paced action, and group celebrations create compelling content that participants are eager to share on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. Every post acts as a free, authentic advertisement for your venue, driven by genuine customer excitement.
    5. A Turnkey Solution from a Trusted Supplier
    Partnering with an experienced interactive arcade equipment supplier means you’re not just buying equipment; you’re investing in a complete business solution. We provide end-to-end support, including:
  • Custom layout design for your specific space.

    This turnkey approach minimizes downtime and ensures you can start generating revenue from day one.
