Since this year, the smart cards of the Sports Center have been sold at the reception desk of each stadium. Citizens can choose to purchase smart cards with five different stored values. Cards with higher stored values are entitled to higher discounts. Citizens with cards can enjoy up to 15 percent to 30 percent off for fitness activities in Natatorium, Tennis Center, Comprehensive Stadium, and other gyms. They can use such cards not only to pay for fitness fees and food costs, and enjoy discounts but also get access to more convenience and faster services by binding them to WeChat.

       Only with your fingers, you can reserve the sports fields in the Sports Center. In order to enable more citizens to come to the Sports Center for fitness activities, and enhance the quality of sports services, the Sports Center has built WeChat Public Platform (WeChat Service No.: DalianSportsCenter) integrating functions of push notifications of sports events and performances, online reservation and payment of sports venues, management of smart cards, activity registration, etc., for the purpose of creating ‘Sports Service Circle’. Among them, one of the highlights is online reservation of sports venues. Citizens can log into the WeChat Service No. of the Sports Center, enter ‘online services-venue reservation’, and choose any site during any period (the minimum hour of use is one hour). Venue will be reserved successfully once you make payment within the specified time. Such function will provide real-time, on-the-spot, multi-channel, interactive and shared services for people coming for fitness activities; another highlight is to make payment and recharge online by binding smart-card to WeChat. Through management of the smart card, you can know your fitness course and make more scientific fitness plan.

       The use of One-card and WeChat services has started a new consumption mode for exercises and fitness that is more convenient and affordable. It has integrated the resources of stadiums and sites in the Sports Center, optimized sports and fitness environment, guided popular sports and fitness consumption, further stimulated the citizens’ enthusiasm in participating in sports activities, and enhanced the overall operation level of the Sports Center.
