At present, most of the amusement centers use prepaid sales model and have established a membership system by pre-selling their game tokens. So the most significant challenge to them is how to encourage players to consume their prepaid tokens quickly. The excessive pre-purchased game tokens will become a significant challenge for the game center to achieve profitability.
So the stock quantity of pre-purchased tokens is an issue must be concerned, especially in the highly competitive current market. Only when the amusement park maintains a healthy cycle of token sales, consumption, stockpiling, consumption, and sales again can it ensure sustained growth and profitability.

Dedicated players need to be nurtured over a long period to develop a consumer habit of 'playing games - saving lottery tickets(reward points) - redeeming prizes.' However, in reality, many players are completely unaware of the purpose of lottery tickets(reward points). It is common to see lottery tickets hanging outside the machines, untouched, which proves that the venue has not put in the effort to cultivate a strong awareness of lottery ticket(reward points) consumption.
Never assume that your players already understand the purpose of lottery tickets(reward points). Even in venues that have been in operation for many years, it is still discovered during on-site interviews with players that many of them are not aware. Don't believe it? Just ask consumers at the venue. The machines, redemption counters, materials hung above the venue, and announcements by staff, among others, can all be channels for informing players about the purpose of lottery tickets(reward points). It is essential to do more promotion, create large displays and large cards, and clearly communicate the purpose of lottery tickets(reward points) to the players.

Some trivial and detailed issues with redemption machines need to be identified as early as possible, and matters on-site should be addressed on-site to the greatest extent, without waiting or observing. Therefore, in terms of equipment maintenance, it is important to pay attention to the following:
1. New machine entry performance, as it is relatively unstable in operation at this stage, requires dedicated supervision, timely follow-up, and improvements.

Dust can also cause issues with circuit boards, such as conductivity and optical sensor malfunctions. Thus, both internal and external cleanliness of redemption machines are equally important. Regular cleaning schedules for internal and daily cleaning for external components should be established.
3. Timely inspect the quality and durability of certain components. If issues are detected with imaging equipment, for example, replacements are necessary. A thorough understanding and mastery of the machine's performance can help extend its lifespan and ensure normal usage rates. Critical inspection areas include vulnerable parts such as motors, drive belts, gears of ticket dispensers, and sensors.
