FastBar for marketing teams
Events your guests talk about,
for the right reasons

- Shorter lines, happier guests
- Perks for VIPs and sponsors
- Fast and easy, however guests pay
Trusted by events and venues across the US and beyond
The problem
You built the event.
Don't let a long bar line ruin it.
A great lineup and a beautiful space can be undone by a 20-minute wait for a drink. The guest experience is only as good as its slowest moment.
The old way
With FastBar
The old way
The venue with the long lines
Long waits and slow service become what guests remember about your events, and what they tell their friends.
With FastBar
Lines that keep moving
FastBar is built for busy event bars. An RFID wristband tap takes under a second, and venues using FastBar have cut card transaction times by up to 78%.
The old way
VIPs and sponsors waiting with everyone else
Paper drink tickets and comp lists make your most important guests feel like everyone else.
With FastBar
Perks that just work
VIP drinks and sponsor perks load onto an RFID wristband or card and apply at the bar, with nothing to hand out.
The old way
A clunky way to pay
Cash-only bars, card readers that stall and confusing charges on the statement don't match the event you designed.
With FastBar
Easy, however guests pay
Payment cards, phones, RFID wristbands and cash, with no app to download, receipts by text and your event's name on the card statement.
The old way
Payments that stall when the WiFi drops
A packed event is hard on the network, and when payments stall, the line stops moving.
With FastBar
Keeps selling offline
Every payment method keeps working without a connection, so guests never notice.
The old way
Knowing little about how it went
Guests come and go, and you hear how the event went from online reviews, if at all.
With FastBar
Hear from your guests
Guests can rate the event and leave comments when it ends, and when they register a wristband, you choose what you collect, including a marketing opt-in.
The FastBar system
A better guest experience, at every event you host
Every way your guests pay, perks for the people who matter most, and every sale in one real-time dashboard you can check from your phone.
Every way your guests pay
- RFID wristbands
- Cards: tap, chip or swipe
- Apple Pay and Google Pay
- Cash
- Room and member charges
<1 sec
per RFID wristband payment
No lines to remember
A wristband tap takes under a second, so guests spend their time enjoying the event, not waiting.
Up to 78%
faster card transactions after switching to FastBar
Shorter lines for everyone
Payment cards and phones are fast too, so the line keeps moving even when guests don't use a wristband.
5 / 5
median attendee rating across all FastBar events
Guests love it too
Attendees rate their experience in post-event surveys, and across every FastBar event, the median rating is a perfect five.
RFID wristbands
Guests tap, and get back to the show
RFID wristbands are the fastest, most polished way to pay at concerts, festivals and VIP areas, and they can carry your brand all event long.
Register once
Guests connect a payment card from a pre-registration link sent with their ticket, or at a registration station on site, and you choose what you collect along the way.
Tap to pay in under a second
Secure wristbands stay on all event, so guests tap at any bar and get back to the show.
Perks that apply themselves
VIP drinks, sponsor credits and comps load onto the wristband and apply at the bar, with nothing to hand out.
Every other way to pay works too
RFID is one way to pay, not the only one. Use it everywhere, in some areas, or not at all.
- Credit and debit cards
- Apple Pay and Google Pay
- Cash
- Member and room charges

RFID wristbands
Branded, secure RFID wristbands and registration stations, whenever you want them.
