On this week’s show we catch up on what’s changing across family entertainment and location-based entertainment, from cashless tech and loyalty experiments to a grounded look at what actually drives repeat visits. Chris King from Monster Mini Golf shares how culture-first franchising and local connection can scale without losing the human touch.
• Intercard’s upcoming show schedule and why cashless payments keep accelerating
• A new rewards platform pilot for FEC operators and what user testing should uncover
• Season 5 plans with new regular contributors and how to get involved
• Monster Mini Golf’s recent franchise growth and the infrastructure behind it
• Why being both franchisor and franchisee keeps leadership “boots on the ground”
• Designing locally inspired glow murals to build community connection
• Training teams for age-appropriate guest engagement as the core product
• Openings and closures that highlight trends in claws, sportstainment, mission rooms, and VR pop ups
• New arcade releases and operator considerations on pricing, linking, and audience fit
• Marketing actions to start now for a stronger busy season: digital, grassroots, and outbound events
