Enhancing the Guest Experience

At the heart of RocketRez's offering is an unwavering commitment to enhancing the guest experience.

“We realized that technology is the solution–the payment system, the seamless and quick way of securing a ticket and walking into the aquarium, all those things eventually impact the bottom line.” - George Jacob, President and CEO of Aquarium of the Bay

The importance of personalization in customer experience is more vital than ever. According to a study by Epsilon, 80% of consumers are more likely to purchase from a company offering personalized experiences. RocketRez empowers you to customize each visitor's journey, ensuring they leave not just satisfied, but deeply impressed and eager to return.

Effective Ticket Management

RocketRez's Ticketing & Reservations offers responsive interfaces, custom seat maps, general admission options, and more. These features ensure a seamless ticketing process for your guests and an efficient management system for your team.

Moreover, RocketRez's OTA integrations streamline third-party bookings, enabling you to sell more tickets across multiple platforms. In today's digital age, it's essential to have a broad online presence. With OTA integrations, you can tap into larger audiences and increase your reach. As estimated by Statista Mobility Market Insights, two-thirds of revenue in the global travel and tourism market came from online sales channels in 2022, with it expected to top 69% in 2023.

Effectively managing retail and inventory is a critical aspect for any museum with a gift shop or merchandise. In fact, according to the Museum Store Association, retail operations can account for as much as 20% of a museum's revenue.

Leveraging Data for Decision-Making

Data-driven decisions are no longer an option but a necessity, especially for museums, where understanding visitor behavior and preferences can significantly enhance operations and profitability.

Our Business Intelligence module offers a comprehensive solution to analyze both historical and current data, facilitating strategic decision-making. According to a study by Gallup, organizations that leverage customer behavior data to generate behavioral insights outperform peers by 85 percent in sales growth and more than 25 percent in gross margin.

“Dealing with ticketing systems like RocketRez actually directly helps us track our demographics. So whether we have visitors coming in from China or Germany or Korea or elsewhere, that demographic capture happens very easily with our ticketing system and the use of our QR codes in our galleries, which are multi-lingual.” - George Jacob, President and CEO of Aquarium of the Bay

RocketRez takes this up a notch with the Clarity Dashboard feature. This provides customizable dashboard widgets that visualize data for maximum impact. These reporting features provide valuable insights that guide your strategic planning and decision-making processes.
