Predictions: Turn Pre-Game Traffic Into More Orders & Visits

Huge revenue opportunity of the biggest soccer/football season doesn’t start at kickoff – it starts before the game even begins.

That’s why Ripples introduces Predictions – a free pre-game feature that helps venues capture customers earlier by turning score guesses into interactive drink experiences before the match.

Predictions allows customers to submit their prediction before kickoff and print their guessed final score directly onto drinks. This simple but powerful feature transforms pre-game anticipation into customer engagement, social sharing, and revenue-driving traffic during hours that might be slower.

For venues, predictions are more than a fun game; it’s a business growth tool:

• Increase pre-game foot traffic
• Fill slower hours before kickoff with paying customers
• Boost early drink sales and table occupancy
• Extend customer sessions from pre-game into live match spending
• Encourage repeat orders as guests stay for the full match experience
• Create social-worthy moments that attract new visitors through customer sharing

This means predictions can help turn pre-game hours into a major revenue opportunity while building momentum for live-game sales. Instead of waiting for the match to start, your venue can begin generating excitement, engagement, and orders well before kickoff.

Because Predictions is free to use, it gives venues an easy, no-cost way to activate matchday traffic earlier, attract more customers, and compete more effectively during the busiest sports season of the year.
