Upsell in a Gaming Club — How It Works and Why

Upsell in a Gaming Club — How It Works and Why

Upsell — offering a player a more expensive or expanded version of what they originally chose. A player came for an hour in the standard zone — they’re offered VIP. A player wanted to pay per hour — they’re offered a multipass with a better per-hour rate. Upsell raises average spend per visit (AOV) without increasing player count.

How Upsell Works in Gaming Clubs

Zone upsell — instead of Standard, offer Pro or VIP. The per-hour price difference is modest, but meaningful for average spend — especially in long sessions.

Tariff upsell — instead of a single hour, offer a multipass. Player pays more upfront but gets a better per-hour rate — classic volume discount upsell.

Top-up upsell — player planned to top up 200, but sees that topping up 300 gets a 15% bonus, and chooses 300. This is average top-up upsell. More details — top-up bonus.

Upsell in IZI: Practical

Zone pricing — in tariff settings, the “Prices by Zone” section sets different prices for Standard, Pro, and VIP. When opening a session, the admin selects a zone — player sees the price difference.

Multipass alongside hourly — place multipass next to hourly tariff in the cashier. With hourly at 100 and a 20-hour multipass at 1,600 (80/hour), the comparison is obvious.

Top-up bonus tiers — configure a tiered threshold structure. At different top-up amounts, players get different bonus percentages. This visually demonstrates the benefit of paying more.
