Case Study: Sneaker Syndicate boosts Key Master machine revenue with Cantaloupe card readers

Sneaker Syndicate Upgrades their Key Master Machines with Card Readers

Sneaker Syndicate, an arcade business operating Key Master prize machines, faced the challenge of being a typically cash-only operation. They wanted to modernize by offering customers cashless payment options for their games. The company turned to the vendor Cantaloupe for a solution using their card reader technology.

Cantaloupe implemented its easy, plug-and-play card readers, which accept credit/debit cards and mobile wallets. This solution provided remote access to sales data and delivered exceptional results for Sneaker Syndicate, including a 45% increase in machine revenue without a drop in cash sales and a doubling of overall sales in the first month. The owner credited Cantaloupe with enabling significant business expansion and opening the door to the future of the industry.
