Re-Coup Smart Wristband, Powered by Talisman is First to Combine Reusable Coupon with Real-Time Intelligence

The new wristband provides, for the first time, instant rewards for brand loyalty and unlimited promotional offers through the Talisman service. Coupled with an innovative smart wristband, called Re-Coup , Talisman brings new opportunities for revenue to organizations and their affiliate businesses and sponsors in the leisure, entertainment and hospitality industries.

"Talisman leverages the secure functionality of RFID-tagged wristbands with a web-based software service to deliver best-in-class mobile marketing capabilities," said Cindy McNamara, vice president of business development at Talisman. "It's easy to implement and translates into top line revenue gains as well as bottom line savings for theme park operators," she said.

Re-Coup wristbands are flexible, multi-use mobile marketing "platforms" containing a removable, reusable RFID coupon, and are a green alternative to single-use, disposable wristbands. The Re-Coup wristband delivers unlimited promotional capability thanks to the combination of variable data, photo-quality printing, a reusable RFID coupon and the real-time intelligence software and service called Talisman. Re-Coup, paired with Talisman's intuitive web-based software allows primary and affiliate businesses to create and manage ongoing incentive campaigns quickly and easily with real-time performance monitoring. The solution is fully hosted with all hardware, software and training included.

Talisman-powered promotions are expected to return three benefits to theme park operators and hotels: (1) an increased number of customer return visits and higher participation rates through targeted promotions, (2) new business insights and measurements for park operators and their affiliated businesses garnered by the analysis of Talisman-captured customer data and trends, and (3) mobile opt-in information provided by customers for future brand promotions.

The new solution was launched at the 4ID Solutions (www.4idsolutions.com) booth # 1059 at the annual IAAPA (www.iaapa.org) Attractions Expo in Las Vegas, and is available from 4ID Solutions in North America and from RFID n Print Pty Ltd in Australia, Europe and Asia.

Talisman Service

One of the goals of Talisman is to extend the customer's experience by providing a guest portal for customers to opt-in to mobile marketing offers from the hotel or theme park client and their affiliate partners and sponsors. Reinforcement of brand loyalty is accomplished by leveraging additional time-sensitive incentives and rewards to the guest.
