Batting cages

Prepaid pitch buckets. Session packs for the serious hitter. All tracked automatically.

A digital session pass in Apple Wallet for batting cages. Sell buckets in advance, track usage without tokens, and win back players at the start of every new season.

Token-free. Punch-card-free. Phone-based.

A multipass card replaces physical tokens and punch cards with a digital session balance that updates automatically on every scan. No inventory. No cash handling for session credits.

Serious players train year-round with the right motivation

A prepaid session bundle is a training commitment. A player who has paid for 20 swings remaining shows up for those swings — in November as well as April.

Season start is your biggest win-back opportunity

A push notification in late February — announcing new pitching machine settings, extended hours, or a spring training special — reaches every card holder as the season decision is being made.

Push notifications

Your card talks to them. You set the rules once.

Win-back fires automatically when a card holder goes quiet. Geolocation nudges fire when they're within 100 meters of your door. Transaction confirmation fires on every scan. None of it requires anyone on your team to do anything.

  • Win-back push — 28-day silence trigger, always running
  • Geolocation push — 100m proximity, zero staff input
  • Transaction push — confirmation fires on every scan
  • Free, unlimited, on every plan

Batting cage loyalty is seasonal loyalty. The card is what bridges the off-season.

Batting cage attendance peaks with the baseball and softball season and drops significantly outside it. The players who keep coming in October and November are your most committed and most commercially valuable customers. But even the seasonal visitor — the travel ball parent, the high school player preparing for tryouts, the recreational league hitter — has a moment of high intent at the start of every season when they are actively looking for somewhere to practice. A push notification that arrives at that moment, from a venue they already visited and whose card is already in their wallet, is the lowest-friction path back to a visit. The loyalty program bridges the gap between seasons.

Digital session pack cards for batting cages

Batting cages serve a customer base with a natural seasonal rhythm that creates predictable peaks and troughs in facility utilisation. Spring and early summer — youth baseball and softball season, high school tryout preparation, adult recreational league — drive peak demand. Late fall and winter represent a utilisation challenge: the players who continue training year-round are serious, high-value customers, but their numbers are smaller and their visits require more active motivation than seasonal demand naturally provides.

Digital session pack cards for batting cages deliver multipass bundles to Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, replacing physical tokens, punch cards, and paper session vouchers with a digital balance that updates automatically when staff scan the pass. A player who purchases a 20-session bundle receives a digital card showing their remaining swings. Every cage session decrements the count. When the player is down to five sessions, a push notification fires — prompting repurchase while the training habit is intact and the season motivation is active.

The token-free operation model is a specific operational benefit for batting cage facilities. Managing token inventory, handling cash token purchases, and tracking punch card fraud are friction points that digital session passes eliminate entirely. The Hardcards scanner app running on a tablet at the cage entrance processes each session credit automatically — no staff intervention required for each individual cage entry once the session pack is active.

Seasonal win-back automation is the highest-ROI feature for batting cage operators. A push notification in late February or early March — timed to the start of youth and high school baseball season — reaches every card holder in the database as the training decision for the new season is being made. For players who lapsed in October, the notification re-establishes the facility at the exact moment their intent to practice is highest.
