In today’s event and venue landscape, building customer loyalty is no longer optional: it’s essential.

In today’s event and venue landscape, building customer loyalty is no longer optional: it’s essential.

With over 4.3 billion people worldwide using digital wallets in 2024, global digital wallet transaction value reaching ~$10 trillion, and digital wallets already making up ≈31% of physical store transactions globally, guests don’t just want tickets — they expect frictionless experiences, cashless payments, and rewards that feel personal.

That’s where the Glownet Wallet comes in.

The Glownet Wallet transforms how merchants, event organisers, and venue managers connect with their audiences by combining ticketing, access, cashless payments, and loyalty programs into one powerful platform. Whether through RFID wristbands, cards, or mobile NFC, or eTags, the Wallet creates seamless interactions that drive satisfaction and keep customers coming back.

What is the Glownet Wallet?

The Glownet Wallet powers live experiences at events, festivals, and venues, unifying:

  • Ticketing & Access Control – instant entry with RFID/NFC/eTag technology.

  • Cashless Payments – secure, fast, and convenient transactions.

  • Stored Value – balances roll over for future use.

  • Loyalty & Rewards – points, discounts, and personalized offers.

By removing friction at every stage, the Glownet Wallet strengthens trust, boosts spend, and builds long-term loyalty.

How to Build Customer Loyalty with the Glownet Wallet

1. Frictionless Entry & Access First impressions matter. With RFID wristbands or eTags, guests skip long queues and enjoy fast, seamless entry, setting the tone for a positive experience from the start.

2. Cashless Payments & Rewards The Wallet allows instant, cashless payments for food, drinks, and merchandise. Merchants can link rewards directly to transactions, offering points, discounts, or perks that incentivize repeat purchases.

3. Personalized Offers Using Wallet data, you can identify loyal guests and send targeted promotions. Think: “Free drink after your 5th visit” or “VIP upgrade for top spenders.” Personalization builds stronger emotional connections.

4. Stored Value,Top-Ups & Linked Payments Guests can load funds into their Wallet before or during the event. Balances roll over, encouraging future visits and reducing barriers to spending. Guests can also link their credit cards, enabling seamless pay-as-you-go (PAYG) transactions without manual top-ups.

5. Data-Driven Engagement The Wallet provides merchants with valuable insights into customer behavior. With this data, you can design loyalty programs that actually resonate, rather than guessing what your audience values.

6. Seamless API Integrations Glownet APIs allow the Wallet to integrate natively into partner apps and customer journeys, be deployed as a Glownet-powered, custom-branded wallet hosted on partner domains, and — most importantly — extend existing loyalty systems used by event organisers, attractions, resorts, and clubs.

Benefits for Merchants

  • Higher customer satisfaction through seamless guest journeys.
