The game day experience goes beyond just watching the game. It's about being fully immersed in the atmosphere, cheering on your team, and sharing the experience with friends and family. So much of our daily lives rely on our smartphones. Nine out of ten phone users have low-battery anxiety.

A dead cell phone battery at an entertainment venue could potentially ruin the entire experience.

Paperless ticketing has become increasingly popular in recent years, with many venues opting to use digital tickets instead of traditional paper tickets. This can be convenient for fans, as it allows them to access their tickets through their phone. But, if their phone is dead, they may not be able to get into the venue.

Taking photos and recording videos is a big part of the game day experience for many fans. Whether it's capturing the action on the field or posing for selfies with friends, people love to share their experiences on social media. But if their phone is dead, they won't be able to post their photos and videos online.

Texting and calling are other essential aspects of the game day experience. Whether it's coordinating with friends and family or simply staying in touch with loved ones throughout the event. But if their phone is dead, they won't be able to make or receive calls or texts.

Paying for merchandise, food, and drink has also become more convenient with the use of mobile payment options like Apple Pay and Venmo. These allow fans to easily make purchases without having to carry cash or credit cards. But, if their phone is dead, they won't be able to take advantage of these convenient payment methods.

Finally, many people rely on ride-share services like Uber and Lyft to get to and from entertainment venues. If their phone is dead, they may not be able to access these services and may have to find alternative transportation.

All these issues can be avoided with the use of phone charging stations at entertainment venues. These solution allow fans to charge their phones while they enjoy the game. Ensuring they can stay connected and fully experience everything the venue offers.

It's clear that phone chargers are not only convenient for fans, but they can also significantly improve the customer experience. 

Phone charging stations are also a great opportunity for sponsorships and partnerships.

We decided to provide it on our sponsored suits at Minnesota United FC stadium." 

Incorporating phone charger station into your game day experience is a simple yet effective way to enhance the overall enjoyment of your fans while also improving safety and engagement. By providing a place to charge their phones, you can ensure they have all the tools they need to fully engage with your team and the game.

There are a few key things to consider when implementing phone charging station at your stadium

‍

First and foremost, it's important to have enough chargers to meet the demand of your fans. This may require some research and analysis to determine the optimal number and placement of charging stations. Consider a trial with one of the solutions you choose to learn in action.

Secondly, you'll want to consider the type of cell phone charging stations you want to use. Several options are available, including traditional outlets, portable battery packs, and wireless charging stations. Each has its own benefits and drawbacks, so it's important to choose the option that best fits the needs and preferences of your fans. 

Portable chargers are small, lightweight devices that users can carry with them and use to charge their devices on the go. These small devices can easily be carried around, making them perfect for fans who want to watch the game and stay connected. Simply grab one and go back to the game.

Consider a self-serve smart portable charger station. This is a fully automated solution that is controlled by software. Users can use an app to check out charged and ready-to-go portable battery with built-in charging cables. The software will notify users when the portable charger needs to be returned to the station. Provides performance reports to help facility managers track usage and monitor performance. This solution requires minimal effort to manage and maintain and is offered by many businesses. This is exactly what we offer at Electron-to-Go.

It's also important to keep in mind the durability and reliability of the charging stations. They will likely be subjected to heavy use, so it's important to choose a product that can withstand the wear and tear of a busy entertainment venue. Choose a charging station with security features to prevent unauthorized access or tampering.

Finally, the cost of implementing charging stations. While they can be a valuable addition to the game day experience, it's important to carefully evaluate the potential return on investment and determine if it's a viable option for your business.
