The features of this technology help visitors minimise the waiting time for procedures and the process of moving between Vinpearl's internal areas. In particular, when using privileged services in buffet restaurants and private games areas ... visitors do not need to bring their room cards.

All 43 Vinpearls nationwide will apply the new technology in the future to help customers feel comfortable at check-in desks.
