Frequently asked questions
Who is CenterEdge designed for?
CenterEdge is built for multi-attraction entertainment venues: family entertainment centers, amusement parks, water and adventure parks, zoos, museums and specialty attractions. It is aimed at operators that need one system for admissions, attractions, games, food and beverage, retail, events and payments rather than several disconnected tools.
How much does CenterEdge cost?
Published pricing is a flat monthly platform fee based on workstation count: $300/month for 1-3 workstations, $550/month for 4-9, and $800/month for 10-15. Facilities with 16 or more workstations are quoted individually. The rates shown require bundling CenterEdge Payments; optional add-ons are $50-$100/month each, and a mandatory implementation fee is not stated.
What is included in the base subscription?
Every plan includes the full Advantage Suite (Advantage Sales, Advantage Events and Advantage Console), web theming to match your brand, integrated CenterEdge Payments, full access to the CenterEdge Play cashless solution for games and attractions, and the vendor's support and training program. Optional add-ons cover redemption tools, integrations and digital signage.
What support and training does CenterEdge provide?
Support is included for all clients regardless of license or facility size, and covers phone support, support tickets, email and a free self-service support portal with guides and videos. Staffed hours are Monday-Friday 8:00-18:30 and Saturday 8:00-17:00 EST, with 24/7 emergency support. The team is US-based and includes onboarding, installation and training specialists.
Can CenterEdge connect to our accounting, marketing or cashless systems?
Yes. Integrations are an optional $50/month add-on covering cashless software, accounting software and third-party integrations. CenterEdge also lists interfaces for kitchen automation, marketing, bookkeeping and industry cashless systems, and its own payment processing is natively integrated with the Advantage Suite.
