Printed Wristbands for Adding Extra Security

You are probably wondering why printed merchandise needs added security... well if you've ever queued up for an hour or so to get into a club you'll know exactly what we mean. Many of you will know just how frustrating it is when you see people skipping to the front of the cue to get a wristband off their friend that is already in the club.

You generally find people who are already in a club don't want their friends to wait in the cue, so they give their wristband to there friends, hoping the bouncer will recognise them and let their friend in too (as they have their wristband on). However they never really think about how annoying it is for the people who have been waiting for hours in the cue to see people walking straight in without having to wait!

Other benefits of having printed merchandise with added security... There is also the worry for club owners letting in people that are under age, as of course if someone already has a wristband on, the bouncers will probably assume that they have already been ID!

This of course is not the bouncers fault, but if the club gets caught with someone under age in the club there could be a massive fine for club owners and the club could even be shut down. The way round this is to have secure wristbands that are made from tough tear resistant material for high security, totally waterproof and one size fits all.

These wristbands cannot be removed without cutting, so attempts to transfer to another person are easily detected. Which should protect the clubs reputation and save it from getting a massive fine. Wristbands can also be branded with a club name or logo, which will ensure the people entering the club aren't using wristbands from other clubs (to avoid paying the entry fee).

However branding your wristbands isn't always a security thing, it also creates good brand awareness for the club. Just think how many people wake up the next morning with their wristbands still on. Since leaving the club they would have gone to the kebab house, got a taxi or walked home and probably seen their friends on the way.

Think how much brand awareness just one person would create by showing the clubs wristband off on their way home. Wristbands also offer an incentive to the customer too, as clubs sometime offer free drinks if you show your wristband to the bar staff, or offer free entry if you bring your wristband back the next time you come... The benefits of wristbands are endless!
