Service & Support

A lane out on a Saturday night costs you the booking, the bar spend and the party that was going to book next month. Our subscription plans put a planned maintenance rhythm around your equipment, so wear is found on a service visit instead of in front of your customers.

Three ways to cover your centre

Pick the level of cover that suits how you trade

Every plan is priced from your own numbers — lane count, pinsetter type, where you are and how often we're on site. Not off a rate card.

Travel is priced at cost

We don't mark up airfares, accommodation or kilometres. If your centre is serviced by a technician based in the same city, your plan carries no overnight costs at all — you're charged the drive that actually happens.

Nothing is left to memory

Every visit ends with a written report: what was serviced, what was adjusted, what is wearing and what we recommend before the next visit.

How it works

Three steps, then it just runs in the background

01

Tell us about your centre

Lane count, pinsetter type and where you are. We price all three plans on your own numbers and send them through — no obligation.

02

We schedule your year

Choose your plan and you get your service visit dates for the next twelve months, locked in up front and worked around your trading.

03

You're covered

Scheduled visits, written reports and seven-day support from the first month. One monthly payment, indexed once a year, nothing to chase.

Optional extras

Add-ons folded into the same monthly plan

Genuinely optional and priced separately — take what you use, on the one invoice.

Brunswick Crown Advantage

Scoring subscription in Platinum or Gold. Already pre-paid elsewhere? We'll review it with you at renewal rather than charge you twice.

Kiosk subscription

Self-service kiosks kept current and supported, priced per unit per year.

DFX Media Wall

Media wall subscription on a flat annual rate, bundled into the same monthly payment.

Spark

Spark-enabled lanes supported and licensed, priced per lane — it needn't be every lane.

Common questions

Before you ask us for a price

How is my price worked out?

Four things: the technical support your centre size and equipment need, the technician days for your scheduled visits, the travel to get there, and any callout days included in the plan. String machines need materially less service time than freefall, so they cost less to cover. Travel is charged at cost. You see every component on the proposal.

What does it cost if I don't take a plan?

Reactive callouts for centres without a subscription are $1,500 per day plus travel, scheduled next available — behind every centre that does have a plan. Ad-hoc telephone and remote support is $195 per hour. One callout day generally costs more than a year of the Support plan on a mid-size centre.

Do you charge extra for travel and accommodation?

Not on a scheduled visit — it's already in the price, at cost. If your centre is serviced by a technician based in the same city, there's no overnight cost in your plan at all.

Can I change plans later?

Yes. Move up or down a tier, change the visit rhythm, or add and remove subscriptions. Most centres start on Care and move to Complete as their trading hours grow.

Is there a discount for signing longer, or for multiple centres?

Yes to both. A three-year term earns a discount on the service component, and owners of three or more centres earn a further one. They stack.

What happens to the price each year?

Plans are indexed 3.5% annually, and that's shown on your proposal for years two and three up front. No mid-term surprises.
