Parken Sport & Entertainment (F.C. Copenhagen)
Parken GO self-service kiosk with visual AI
F.C. Copenhagen's AI kiosk cut service time from 1 minute 20 seconds to 15-20 seconds
Problem
Queues at kiosks and bars on match days and concert days slowed sales at Parken Stadium.
Approach
In February 2024 the club opened Parken GO on the stadium's C-tribune, described as the first of its kind in Scandinavia. Guests scan a card at the entrance, take what they want and leave. Visual AI recognises the items, and the card is charged automatically. The cashier module and checkout line were removed.
Results
Takeaway
Removing the checkout step shortened service and raised the value of each sale, according to the club's own figures.
