Payment turnstiles: A technology revolutionizing payment collection and securing access control

In a world driven by convenience and technology, businesses are constantly seeking smarter ways to manage everything – including access control and payments. Turnstiles integrated with payment systems are not a new concept; coin-operated turnstiles have allowed us to pay for access to public toilets for years. However, they are now at the forefront of innovation, offering efficient, secure, and user-friendly solutions. Read on to learn more!

The power of turnstile counters

Turnstile counters play a pivotal role in access control and data tracking. These counters monitor the number of individuals entering and exiting a facility, ensuring accurate attendance tracking and crowd management

Integrated with payment mechanisms, turnstile counters offer dual functionality: managing access and ensuring seamless payment collection

This combination is particularly beneficial for environments such as paid public toilets, gyms, theme parks, and other facilities where controlling entry and securing revenue are equally critical. Depending on the setting, businesses can choose between direct payment turnstiles or turnstiles integrated with external ticketing systems.

Coin-operated turnstiles: a cost-effective choice

For many businesses, a coin-operated turnstile represents a simple yet effective solution. These systems eliminate the need for external payment devices, offering a self-contained option for controlling access. Users simply insert coins or tap their payment card to gain entry, providing a straightforward method for revenue collection.

COMINFO'sPay2Go solutions offer a dedicated coin-operated and card-payment turnstile designed specifically for paid public toilets. Pay2Go combines a compact, sleek design with reliable payment technology, making it an ideal self-contained solution for high-traffic sanitary facilities.

Turnstile integration with ticketing and payment systems

Gyms, theme parks, stadiums, and exhibitions require a different approach. In these settings, visitors typically purchase tickets online or at a physical counter, and the turnstile validates the ticket – whether in paper, QR code, or digital form – before granting access. Any COMINFO turnstile can integrate with ticketing systems and external payment solutions, enabling smooth ticket verification and seamless passage at the point of entry.
