Why WaitTime
As one of the earliest adopters of the WaitTime technology, the Miami Heat were looking for an innovative platform to help inform operations but also improve guest experience through the mobile app and digital way-finding at their Gates and Entrances. The integration of WaitTime into the Miami Heat digital platforms has allowed the team to monetize WaitTime's revenue generation while also prioritizing their guest engagement.
