RFID-Enabled Cashless Payment Schemes Get Due Credit
Whether you’re using gift cards, riding roller coasters, or buying a fast food meal, cashless payments are hot.
So hot, in fact, that GO SmarTTender RFID gateway, a payment gateway and transaction processor, scored a “Best New Product” award at the recent IAAPA Expo in Atlanta.
The product enhances the guest experience (current Proximities clients include amusement park and water park operators) by integrating seamlessly into a venue’s existing ticketing system, point of sale, and access control infrastructure.

Proximities, Inc., the world leader in RFID enabled cashless payment, access control and age verification solutions for the leisure and entertainment industry announced that its GO SmarTTender RFID gateway was recognized as Best New Product on opening day at the IAAPA Expo in Atlanta, GA.
“Proximities’ GO SmarTTender is the gateway that serves as both a transaction processor and a payment gateway for our GO suite of RFID business solutions,” said Sandy Calabrese, Vice President of Sales & Marketing of Proximities. “It continues to set us apart from our competition and allows us to provide a turn-key solution by integrating seamlessly into a venue’s existing ticketing, point of sale and access control infrastructure. We are very pleased that IAAPA recognized GO SmarTTender with this prestigious first-place award in the revenue and admissions category,” added Calabrese.
“Enhancing the guest experience is the number one priority for amusement and water park operators and our GO RFID system powered by SmarTTender addresses that priority by offering guests a tremendous convenience. Our patented, secure RFID wristband enables guests to carry their purchasing power and access privileges with them on their wrist. A simple swipe of the wristband sends data to SmarTTender for processing. It is quick, easy, and convenient and the guests love it,” stated Ronald R. Carney, Chief Executive Officer of Proximities.
