RFID wristband payments and access control now fully integrated with Lightspeed Restaurant POS for resorts, clubs, and destination properties
TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA, February 25, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — WristCoin Cashless, a leading enterprise-grade cashless payment platform, today announced its full integration with the Lightspeed Restaurant Point of Sale system. The integration enables hospitality and leisure operators to deliver a unified experience where guests use RFID wristbands for payments and room or locker access
Now in general availability since 2025, the integration has already been successfully deployed across multiple properties, supporting high-volume environments that demand reliability, speed, and operational efficiency.
A Unified Guest Experience
With WristCoin integrated directly, guests can tap their RFID wristbands to:
Pay for food, beverages, retail, rentals, and services
Access hotel rooms, lockers, and secure areas
Eliminate the need for cash, cards, or room keys
This tap-and-go experience enhances guest convenience while reducing transaction times and minimizing cash handling.
“At Wander, guest experience is paramount. WristCoin provided the exact integrations we needed to ensure our guest experience was streamlined and stress-free. Having locker access on the same wristband as payments fully integrated with the Lightspeed system has been a great combination. It allows our guests to move seamlessly throughout the resort, enhancing their experience, and in turn increasing our revenue”
Shannon Hunter, Founder and President at Wander The Resort
Designed for Destination-Based Merchants
The integration is purpose-built for high-traffic, experience-driven environments, including:
-Resorts & Hotels
-Spas
-Theme parks with wet zones
-Watersports operators
-RV Parks & Resorts
-Sports & leisure clubs
-Racquet clubs
-Ski resorts

By combining payments and access control into a single wearable, operators can streamline operations, reduce friendly fraud, and unlock new revenue opportunities through frictionless on-property spending.
