The Challenge: Understanding Fans in Real Time

Creating an unforgettable game-day experience is just as crucial as the action on the field. Every touchpoint—from ticketing and concessions to security and entertainment—shapes a fan’s overall satisfaction.

However, many sports organizations still depend on outdated feedback methods like post-event email surveys. These traditional approaches suffer from low response rates and delayed insights, preventing teams from making real-time improvements that could enhance the fan experience instantly.

Enter Infotap—a game-changing solution that allows teams to capture real-time feedback from fans in the stadium. By leveraging interactive surveys and immediate data collection, teams can address concerns on the spot and continuously refine the live sports experience.

How Infotap Collects Data in the Stadium

📲 QR Codes for Instant Feedback

QR codes placed strategically throughout the stadium offer a seamless way to gather fan input. Fans can scan a code with their smartphones and answer quick surveys related to their experience. Effective placements include:

  • Seat armrests and cup holders – Evaluate comfort, views, and overall satisfaction.

  • Concession stands – Measure food quality, wait times, and service efficiency.

  • Restrooms – Assess cleanliness and availability of amenities.

  • Team stores – Identify popular merchandise and customer preferences.

🎤 Survey Stations for Quick Responses

Survey stations equipped with tablets or touchscreens can be positioned in high-traffic areas like concourses, VIP lounges, or club sections. These interactive kiosks help teams collect feedback on:

  • Food & beverage quality – “Did the food meet your expectations?”

  • Facility cleanliness – “Were restrooms well-maintained?”

  • Game-day atmosphere – “How would you rate your overall experience?”

📩 Text and Email Links for Easy Access

For fans who prefer digital participation, Infotap enables teams to send survey links via text or email at key moments:

  • Halftime surveys – Capture insights on first-half action and in-game entertainment.

  • Post-game check-ins – Collect feedback immediately after the event.

  • Next-day follow-ups – Gather additional suggestions and detailed responses.
