Certain qualifying commercial venues may potentially be suitable for arrangements that reduce or remove the need for a substantial upfront machine purchase.
Each opportunity is assessed individually.
Strong customer footfall and dwell time can be particularly important.
Contactless Arcade Machines
Suitable commercial machines can potentially use contactless or cashless payment technology depending on the equipment and installation.
This can fit naturally into venues where customers already use electronic payments for:
Food
Drinks
Tickets
Bookings
Activities
Entertainment
Managed Arcade Installation
Depending on the commercial arrangement, a managed installation can potentially include:
Machine Supply
Delivery
Installation
Payment Systems
Technical Support
Maintenance
Machine Selection
Performance Review
The exact responsibilities depend on the agreement.
Arcade Machine Positioning
Machine position can influence how customers interact with the equipment.
Important considerations include:
Visibility
Customer Flow
Waiting Areas
Food & Drink Areas
Entrances
Main Activities
Available Power
Playing Space
Walkways
Machines should complement the customer journey rather than obstruct it.
Arcade Machines Near Main Activities
Placing machines near existing entertainment can create natural customer interaction.
For example:
Arcade Near Bowling
Arcade Near Cinema Foyer
Arcade Near Ice Rink Café
Arcade Near Trampoline Waiting Area
Arcade Near Hotel Games Room
Arcade Near Student Bar
The appropriate location depends on the venue.
Arcade Machines Near Café Areas
Café areas can have strong customer dwell time.
Parents, families and groups may remain around tables while others participate in activities.
Where space allows, arcade machines nearby can provide another entertainment option.
Arcade Machines Near Bars
Entertainment-led bars can potentially position arcade equipment close to social areas.
Machines should remain:
Visible
Accessible
Properly Spaced
Away From Main Walkways
Suitable for the Audience
Games such as boxing and reaction machines may be particularly relevant.

Arcade Machines to Increase Customer Dwell Time FAQs
Can arcade machines increase customer dwell time?
They can provide customers with an additional activity and another reason to remain engaged within a venue, although the effect will depend on the location and customer demographic.
Which venues are most suitable?
Bowling centres, holiday parks, hotels, family entertainment centres, leisure venues, cinemas, ice rinks, bars and multi-activity locations can potentially be suitable.
Do we need a complete arcade?
No. An installation can potentially start with one or several machines.
Can you install 10 or more machines?
Yes. Suitable larger venues can be assessed for substantial multi-machine installations.
Do we need to buy the machines?
Not necessarily. Long-term rental and other commercial arrangements may be available.
Do you offer revenue share?
Potentially. Suitable high-footfall venues can be assessed for revenue-share or profit-share arrangements.
Can the machines accept contactless payments?
Suitable machines can potentially use contactless or cashless payment technology depending on the equipment and installation.
Do you maintain the equipment?
Maintenance and technical support can form part of the agreed commercial arrangement.
Can you help decide where machines should go?
Yes. Photographs, dimensions and information about customer flow can help when assessing the proposed arcade area.
Do you cover the whole UK?
Suitable commercial opportunities can be considered nationwide.
Give Customers More to Do at Your Venue
If customers are already spending time at your bowling centre, hotel, holiday park, leisure centre, cinema, ice rink, family entertainment centre, bar, student venue or activity centre, arcade machines can potentially add another layer of entertainment.
From one machine positioned in a waiting area to a complete commercial arcade installation, Boutique Party Hire can assess your venue.

We hired a claw machine through Boutique party hire for our corporate event and it was brilliant! It went down a treat with guests. It was simple to use, dropped off on time and picked up as soon as we were done. The process couldn’t have been simpler. Would definitely recommend.
Charlotte and her team are FABULOUS! I am the owner of Abigail Lucy Design, a Luxury Wedding + Events company. We recently started planning, designing and managing Luxury Children’s Parties. We have used Charlottes services a couple of times now and we couldn’t be happier, she will always be our go to person from now forth because she always delivers even when we have super last minute bookings. They are professional, helpful and reasonably priced – we love working with Charlotte and her team! I would highly recommend! Love A x
Amazing prop supplier, I used them for a themed event in a prestigous venue in London and not only were their props excellent but their service and conduct on-site was second-to-none. Would definitely recommend.
I hired kids chairs and tables from this company, brilliant smooth seamless service from beginning to end. Thank you Charlotte, will definitely use again.
We hired the powder blue slide bouncy castle and a set of kids white table and chairs for my daughter’s Peter Rabbit themed 3rd birthday party and they were a huge success!

We used Boutique Party Hire for my daughter’s 1st Birthday Party. We hired a bouncy castle and soft play. Right from the point of inquiry to the point of delivery & collection the process was easy and professional. They are also reasonably priced. The bouncy castle and soft play looked lovely and was exactly what we wanted! The kids also loved it! We will definitely be using this company again and recommending them to friends and family.
I would highly recommend the Boutique Hire company the staff were so friendly & professional they couldn’t do enough for me when setting up they helped me reorganise my furniture in order to fit the items in. They also come the next day to take it down at a reasonable time and refunded me my deposit within 24 hours. The children absolutely loved the set up and I would definitely use them again x

I just had my babys 1 year old birthday party and hired a baby blue bouncy castle. They delivered on time, not only that I needed a ‘ONE’ table last minute and they came back to deliver it pretty fast and efficient on the same day. I will definitely be using them again for future parties and highly recommend them! Thank you boutique party hire team x
Absolutely amazing service from start to finish, I got the white soft play, ball pit, bouncy castle and balloon garland and the quality was class. My guests were wowed and the kids were fully entertained all day. The garden looked beautiful all set up. It was a ‘no fuss’ drop off and pick up and I found the price really reasonable. Will always use boutique party hire now and highly recommend. So glad I found you guys. Thank you so much for making my daughters birthday special x
