Provide Better Experiences for Guests, Members and Groups
Ticket sales, educational programs and food sales make up the greatest part of your revenue. By selecting a point-of-sale solution that can unify your income streams, you’ll gain better visibility into your operations and be equipped to make more informed business decisions.
How can our Galaxy point-of-sale system help you do this?
Galaxy is a robust modular solution that offers:
- Integrated ticketing and admission control – sell tickets and passes through multiple sales channels and validate those tickets with the simple scan of a barcode (whether printed or on a mobile device)
- Membership creation and management – process new memberships at any point-of-sale system you designate and create full-color membership cards on the spot; manage your members directly through Galaxy or interface with third-party software such as The Raiser’s Edge
- Efficient scheduling of groups, private tours, advanced bookings and timed events – enhance the guest experience by managing all reservations through one system that lets you see at a glance the availability of resources throughout your venue
- Increased sales capacity – sell at the front gate or at kiosks, through a call center, online through your own web store, or through third-party distributors via Galaxy Connect
- A unified point-of-sale solution – consolidate your ticketing, food & beverage and retail sales for faster reporting and better customer relationship management
