24/7 Self-Service Snowboard Rental Solution for Ski Resorts & Indoor Snow Parks —— Transform Traditional Snowboard Rentals into Automated Smart Operations

Expanding a snowboard rental business often means higher staffing costs, more complex scheduling, and increased operational pressure.

The WEIMI Smart Snowboard Rental Locker Vending Machine is designed to solve these challenges by transforming traditional counter-service rentals into a fully automated self-service rental system.

Installed directly near ski slopes or resort entrances, the machine allows riders to rent snowboards anytime without waiting in line or relying on staff assistance. This creates a scalable 24/7 rental operation while significantly reducing labor costs and improving equipment turnover efficiency.

Smart Backend Management — Full Visibility & Remote Control

Managing high-value snowboards requires accurate tracking and secure inventory control.

The WEIMI cloud-based management platform allows operators to remotely monitor their entire snowboard rental fleet through a phone or PC.

Real-Time Asset Tracking

Operators can instantly check:

• Which snowboards are currently rented out
• Which boards are available in lockers
• Which equipment requires maintenance or inspection

Integrated Security & Surveillance

Built-in HD cameras monitor every pickup and return process in real time.

The system records:

• User identity
• Rental activity
• Pickup and return history
• Transaction records

This greatly reduces the risk of lost equipment, disputes, or unauthorized usage.

Automated Financial Reporting

The system automatically handles:

• Rental payments
• Deposit management
• Peak-hour analytics
• Revenue reporting

Operators can access clean, exportable reports without manual bookkeeping or spreadsheets.

50-Second Rental Experience — More Riding, Less Waiting

Ski resorts are built around customer experience. Riders want to spend time on the slopes—not standing at rental counters.

The WEIMI self-service rental process is designed to be fast, intuitive, and fully automated.

Fast Pickup Process

Riders can:

• Select snowboard sizes through the HD touchscreen
• View transparent pricing and deposit information
• Complete payment via bank card or mobile wallet

Once payment is completed, the assigned locker unlocks automatically for instant equipment pickup.

Smart Return System

Returning the snowboard is equally simple:

• Riders tap “Return” on the screen
• Scan their order code or enter their rental number
• Place the snowboard back into the assigned locker

Once the locker closes, the system automatically finalizes the transaction and updates inventory status for the next customer.

This closed-loop process maximizes snowboard utilization and turnover rates.

Built Specifically for Snowboard Storage & Rental

Snowboards are large, expensive, and easily damaged if stored improperly.

Unlike standard lockers, the WEIMI Smart Snowboard Rental Locker Vending Machine is specifically engineered for winter sports equipment.

Vertical High-Capacity Storage Design

Tall independent compartments keep snowboards upright, organized, and protected while maximizing storage capacity within a compact footprint.

This design is ideal for:

• Indoor ski resorts
• Snow parks
• Mountain resorts
• High-traffic ski entrances

Industrial-Grade Security System

Each locker compartment features high-strength electronic locking systems that only unlock after verified rental authorization.

This ensures premium equipment remains secure even in unattended 24-hour facilities.

More Than a Rental Locker — A Revenue & Branding Platform

The WEIMI system not only reduces labor costs but also helps ski resorts improve branding and generate additional revenue opportunities.

Capture More Impulse Rentals

By placing rental access directly beside the slopes, operators can increase spontaneous rentals from riders who decide to participate on-site.

Digital Advertising & Promotion

The large touchscreen display can also promote:

• Ski lessons
• Resort memberships
• Pro shop products
• Resort events
• Brand advertisements

Helping operators create additional marketing exposure and passive advertising revenue.

Smart Remote Management System

Operators can remotely manage the entire snowboard rental network through mobile devices or PCs.

The backend system supports:

• Real-time inventory monitoring
• Rental activity tracking
• Financial reporting
• Remote locker control
• Maintenance management
• Multi-location operation management

This allows ski resorts and snow parks to scale rental operations efficiently with lower staffing requirements.

It is a complete intelligent rental solution designed to solve:

• Long customer wait times
