Legic technology provides access, payments

Friday, May 8, 2009 in News

Visitors to Italy’s Lake Garda wellness oasis are able to access facilities and purchase meals with LEGIC technology.

Guests are given their personal chip wristband containing a contactless LEGIC transponder. The wristband is an all-in-one admission ticket, electronic wallet and changing room locker key.


On entering, guests use their wristband to open a vacant locker in order to securely store their clothes and personal valuables. Terminals keep guests informed of their locker number, duration of stay and account status at all times. Guests do not need any cash during their entire stay and don‘t have to bother about troublesome keys.

The wristband is used to bill meals, drinks, massages or beauty treatments. As well as all admission-relevant information, every monetary transaction is stored on the LEGIC chip. Guests settle their expenses when they leave the facility. Return reader stations at the exit turnstiles collect the credential for re-use. [end]
