What is an Event Locker System?

An event locker system is a digitally controlled, self-service storage platform designed to handle rapid visitor turnover during peak arrival and exit periods. CrowdStor functions as a venue smart locker system combining secure access control, cashless payments, real-time monitoring, and high-throughput operation.

CrowdStor by Vpod Smart Solutions empowers stadiums, arenas, and live event spaces to offer seamless visitor storage while unlocking new ways to drive revenue and improve operations. From matchdays to concerts and tours, CrowdStor is the intelligent locker solution that works harder for your venue.

Core Capabilities of the CrowdStor Platform

High-Throughput Self-Service Storage

Operated through a smart touchscreens interface, or via WebApp / QR code – users can access lockers in seconds without waiting in line or interacting with staff. This creates a safer, more enjoyable environment and helps improve the overall flow of the venue.

Retail Click & Collect Integration

CrowdStor supports retail merchandise collections in a smarter way. Use smart lockers as in-store collection points for merchandise, souvenirs, or apparel. Integrate exclusive offers, upsells, or loyalty rewards to turn every collection into an opportunity to boost footfall and basket size.

CrowdStor supports seamless click & collect by integrating with your POS or online retail systems. Visitors can collect purchases pre-event, during intermissions, or after the show. You can promote exclusive in-store discounts or bundle offers that appear at the point of locker collection, turning a simple pickup into a valuable engagement moment. This reduces retail queues, frees up staff, and encourages visitors to spend more, more often.

Optional Paid Storage & Revenue Models

Why stop at one use case? Monetise lockers with pay-per-use, pre-booking, or brand sponsorship. CrowdStor adapts to high-volume days, VIP access, backstage use, or even partner activations – sweating the asset across multiple event types.

USE CASE: ZIGGO DOME, AMSTERDAM
Challenge:

Hosting up to 17,000 visitors per event and over 1.2 million guests annually, Ziggo Dome faced long queues caused by coin-operated lockers and manual processes. Visitors needed €2 coins to access lockers, staff were frequently diverted to resolve issues, and post-concert exit times were significantly delayed.

Solution:

4,608 CrowdStor smart lockers deployed within one week, introducing a fully digital, cashless event locker system. Visitors access lockers via QR code or PIN, while the venue benefits from real-time monitoring, centralised management, and high-throughput self-service operation.

Results:
  • 75% reduction in post-concert exit times (from 60 to 15 minutes)
  • Elimination of coins and physical keys
  • Faster, self-service access during peak ingress and egress
  • Reduced staff intervention and operational friction
  • Improved financial security through cashless payments
USE CASE:
PARADISO, AMSTERDAM
Challenge:

With limited floor space and constant sell-out shows, Paradiso needed a storage solution that matched both their aesthetic and operational demands.

Solution:

Results:
  • Fast, self-service access during peak hours
  • Seamless flow in and out of the venue
