In recent months, AAC has been inundated with enquiries from aquatic centres and hotels asking how to save money on their RFID cards and tags. The suppliers they have used for their scanning systems, turnstiles and doors, it seems, have been charging exorbitant rates for RFID consumables. This is done on the pretence that only their RFID Cards and tags are compatible with their systems. This is not true. The reality is that RFID cards and tags are compatible with all systems and this is primarily done to generate an ongoing cash cow for these suppliers because the margins used are quite extraordinary. As an insult to injury, often these suppliers supply RFID Cards and consumables actually branded to themselves, thus using their products as additional advertising exposure for their own companies!
Cost savings with AAC RFID Cards
Both the aquatic and hotel industries need to seek better pricing for RFID Cards and consumables. As a recent example, AAC reduced the costs to one aquatic centre by approximately $15,000 per year, and the same for a hotel group by over $50,000 per year! Simply by offering fairly priced RFID Cards for their access control systems. As an additional benefit – the cards were also branded to their venue, not to us.
The secret is this… RFID Cards for 99% of access control uses are incredibly simple and should not cost an arm and a leg. AAC’s RFID Cards are compatible with all systems including Links and VingCard.
