Founded 25 years ago, Planet Lazer Kelown entertainment center, located in Okanagan, British Columbia, Canada, is the largest indoor facility in the region, integrating laser guns, video games, lottery tickets, and parties The hall and catering services are the prime locations for all entertainment activities.

Planet Lazer Kelowna selected Semnox’s RFID Parafait System over all others after operating for almost 25 years without one and owner Jenna Boyo could not be happier. She had been running her store. The revenue features over 6000 square feet of dual level Extreme Lazer Tag, allowing up to 38 players in each game. Its fully interactive arena offers over 30 different play options which makes every game a new experience. As Jenna likes to say, “You don’t PLAY the game, you ARE the game!”

“The decision to go cashless was an ongoing internal debate for over a 2 year period,” she continued. “We approached several companies to discover which solution would make the most sense for our business and Semnox was hands down the best choice for what we needed. We really liked tap-to-play readers, their flexible software capabilities as well as their All-In-One Komplete Kiosk which allowed us to save necessary space and provided a self-serve option for our customers, freeing up employees from selling cards or attractions. Our guests were extremely quick to adapt from tokens and tickets to cards, utilizing RFID technology and the Parafait Beam Readers. Installation was made during COVID-19 pandemic so this decision was also based on eliminating excess touch points for safety and sanitary reasons.”

Semnox was extremely pleased to add Planet Lazer to their growing family of operators. “It’s always great whenever you can have a friend as a customer and that is especially true with Jenna,” said Brian Duke, Senior Sales Partner of Semnox Americas. “However, this wouldn’t even have been possible if it wasn’t for all the products & services we provide that separate us from our competitors. Our ability to run every facet of her business through our system’s cloud-based management software was a huge factor that sealed the deal for Jenna.” (2021/01/27)
