Ever wonder what a few seconds can cost your venue?



🎟️ Ticketing Throughput:
At a typical 1,200-person concert, around 400+ guests bring bags that require inspection.
If each bag adds ~4 seconds to the entry process, that’s 1,600 seconds — or over 26 minutes of cumulative delay (think about what you’d do with 26 minutes)
Redirecting just 40 of those bags to lockers saves 160 seconds — that’s 40 more fans inside the venue faster, spending money instead of waiting in line.

💰 Why That Matters:
Those 40 guests might now:
Buy a drink sooner
Hit the merch table
Post about the experience
If even 10% of them spend $20 = $80 uplift per event
At 3 shows/week = $12,480/year in additional drink sales — from 40 bags redirected.

🛍️ Merch Sales Impact:
Only 22% of fans buy merch. Why?
Many don’t want to carry it all night.
If 5% more attendees buy thanks to lockers, that’s ~$3,600+ in extra revenue per event.

🔑 Lost & Found Overload:
Phones. Keys. Wallets. Jackets.
Every show ends with a small mountain of lost items.
Lockers reduce that burden — and the late-night scramble to reunite fans with their stuff.

Lockers aren’t just about storage. They’re about:
✔ Faster throughput
✔ Higher per-cap revenue
✔ Happier fans
✔ Fewer lost items
