Your old pinsetter is the most expensive thing in the building.
Old pinsetters cost you a mechanic, lost lane time and a steady bill for spare parts. Switch® Shield ends all three, at €9,950 per lane, installed.
Switch® Genie takes over the rest. Scoring, the front desk, bookings and reporting in one system your team can run from day one, for €1 per lane, per day.
What the old machine takes from you.
Every centre is priced differently. Ask us before it closes.
Tell us your lane count and whether it is a retrofit or a new build. We come back with the campaign price for your centre, on one product or both.
Every lane you keep open on a Saturday night is the investment paying you back.
Less to go wrong
Fewer moving parts than a free-fall machine, so there is less to jam and less to replace. Your duty manager clears a stoppage without waiting for anyone to drive over.
A cost you can plan around
One installed price per lane, one daily rate per lane. No hardware refresh cycle, no upgrade invoice three years in, nothing that changes without you agreeing to it.
Reasons to stay another game
Themed lanes, point games and food ordered from the seat. Guests stay for one more game instead of settling up, and they spend while they are there.
Switch® Shield
Fewer moving parts than a free-fall machine, and none of the routine that comes with them. It runs quietly behind the deck while your own team keeps an eye on it from a tablet.
Switch® Genie
One system for scoring, the front desk, bookings, ordering at the seat and the back office. It fits any pinsetter brand, so you can start here and add Shield later.
The support that comes with every Switch®.
Building or upgrading a centre is a significant investment. From the day your equipment is installed you have a dedicated support structure behind you: technical expertise, genuine parts, preventive care and remote monitoring, all working to keep your centre running at full capacity. Switch Care is not an add-on. It is part of what it means to be a Switch® operator.
A direct line to qualified Switch® engineers who know your equipment. Remotely where possible, on site when it matters.
Scheduled visits to inspect, service and tune your equipment before a problem reaches your lanes.
Your system is monitored continuously. Anomalies are caught early and often resolved before a bowler notices anything.
Direct access to original Switch® components, sourced, shipped and guaranteed to perform as the equipment was designed to.
Track support requests, manage billing, order parts and read the full technical library, from your browser or the Genie front desk.
The questions operators ask first.
Yes. Shield drops into most existing houses as a retrofit, and it is equally at home in a new build.
Yes. Genie fits any pinsetter brand, so you can modernise scoring and the back office first and add Shield later.
Shield is IBF and USBC approved, so it meets the standards required for competitive and tournament bowling.
Shield is shipped and installed with a 5-year warranty. Genie carries a lifetime warranty with free upgrades and remote support included.
The €9,950 per lane is Shield shipped and installed. Genie is €1 per lane per day with no hardware refresh cycle and no upgrade fees.
We do. Your team is trained by Switch as part of the install, with live sessions and a full training library they can return to whenever someone new joins.
