- 1,000+ devices would need to be handed out EACH DAY for guests according to the numbers provided recently
This will be one more thing that needs to be carried by those that can't remember their Villages ID today and this one won't fit conveniently in a wallet.
If these are handed out for free then the cost will hit the amenity budget. If these are not handed out for free then there will be complaints about the cost and there will be demands for the ability to re-activate guest devices used previously.
With 300+ new points of failure there will be a maintenance cost that hits the amenity budget.
It's a solution; we just need to accept that it could require a one-time amenity fee increase that never goes away.

Don’t all those access points need to be tied back to a main server, to update when new fobs are issued or fobs are lost.
This would cost a fortune to maintain, let alone roll out
