Why activate a session for the current time?
Instant session activation solves several key tasks:
- Start playing immediately — no need to wait at the administrator desk
- Spontaneous visits — come to the club without planning and get access to a PC right away
- Save time — the whole process takes less than a minute
- Avoid queues — especially during hours when administrators are busy with other clients
In short: instant session activation turns a club visit into “came–sat down–started playing”.
Step-by-step guide
Step 1. Select a club
- Open the IZI app
- Select the club you are currently in
- Make sure it is the correct branch
Why this matters: Tariffs and available computers may differ between clubs in the network.
Step 2. Start the activation process
- On the club page tap the “Book” button
- The system will take you to the parameter selection section
Why this matters: Despite the name “Book”, this process is also used for instant session activation.
Step 3. Select a PC
- Browse the list of available computers
- Select the specific PC you want to use
- Make sure it is free (marked with the corresponding status)
Why this matters: You can choose any free computer in the room, based on its location and characteristics.
Step 4. Check date and time
- The system will automatically set the current date and time
- Do not change these parameters
- Tap “Next”
Why this matters: Automatic settings guarantee that the session will start immediately after payment, without delays.
Step 5. Select a payment type
- Choose a suitable option: Season pass, Package or Per-minute
- Base your choice on the planned duration of play
Why this matters: For short sessions, per-minute tariffs are more profitable; for long ones, packages or season passes are better.
Step 6. Select a tariff
- From the list of available tariffs choose the optimal one
- Pay attention to the price and conditions
Why this matters: Choosing the right tariff helps you save money and get the required amount of time.
Step 7. Pay for the session
- Check all activation parameters
- Tap the “Pay” button
- Confirm payment with the selected method
Why this matters: After successful payment, the computer is automatically unlocked and you can start playing immediately.
