ROXBORO, N.C. & OCEAN CITY, MD--Entertainment facility solutions provider CenterEdge Software (www.centeredgesoftware.com) is helping Ocean City's premier family amusement park, Jolly Roger, better manage cash and ticketing through its innovative mobile software. By interfacing with Jolly Roger's Embed card readers, CenterEdge Software enables ride attendants to quickly and easily help customers access various attractions while guarding against potential employee theft.
"We are excited about CenterEdge because of its ability to link our multiple attractions and locations, some of which are two miles apart -- everything from our amusement park, Speedworld's multiple cart tracks, multiple attractions on the pier and even Thrashers French Fry stands on the boardwalk," said Steve Pastucek, Jolly Roger general manager.
According to Pastucek, CenterEdge's integration with Embed Card Systems is seamless and allows park management to focus cash handling into a very few locations while letting guests use cards to access almost everything.
Operating an amusement park and a pier, Jolly Roger features traditional amusement park attractions like roller coasters and midway games in addition to Splash Mountain Waterpark, Speedworld (Go Karts), and a pair of miniature golf courses. The pier operation features a ferris wheel; slingshot; roller coasters; and french fry stands known as "Thrashers French Fries" which are extremely popular.
Jolly Roger is using CenterEdge to interface with Embed card readers used by ride attendants to check customers' pre-purchased stored value cards, deducting fees for access to the ride. This helps keep cash in a few concentrated locations where the cards are sold and reduces the risk of employee theft by ride attendants – many of them young adults and teens – manning the attractions.
"Our software interfaces seamlessly with the Embed card system, which Jolly Roger uses, to help our customers manage their facilities quicker and easier, with a major focus on capacity control and better tracking of revenue and labor," CenterEdge Software Director of Operations Marcus Mayer said.
According to Mayer, his company's software suite works to improve reservation and ticketing functionality which in turn helps build a loyal clientele through shorter wait times for attractions and ease-of-use in purchasing tickets with cash or credit.
Painstakingly developed by experienced amusement industry professionals, CenterEdge Software has applications for point of sale, group sales, birthday reservations, and redemption management with the ability to handle online sales and bookings; customer loyalty/rewards programs; time clock and scheduling; digital signage; and daycare management. The company's software interfaces seamlessly with debit card systems, Quickbooks, major credit cards and security systems, while CenterEdge takes all customer support calls in its corporate headquarters and addresses them with a full team of cross-trained, experienced entertainment facility professionals working together as a team.
