A sticker is ordinary, but a Sticker Fun Time is an experience that STICKS! With the right activation design you can turn it into a game, a team-builder, a data tool, an identity shaper, or a reason to explore.Need help designing an activation? SFT offers full-service experiential support!
Design the experience around the pull
Every Sticker Fun Time rental is an activation — even at its simplest. A guest walks up, pulls a sticker, and walks away with something they chose. That's already more engaging than a stack of swag on a table. But when you layer in intent — a reward mechanic, a team assignment, a quest, a vote — the sticker pull becomes the centerpiece of a designed guest experience.
The models below are starting points. Every one is customizable, most can be combined, and SFT can help design the full experience from concept to execution.

Ready to design your activation?
A sticker vending machine activation turns a simple sticker pull into a designed guest experience — a game, a quest, a vote, a team-builder, or a branded moment. SFT offers 12 activation models that can be customized and combined to fit any event.
Free dispense lets guests walk up and pull with no gate. Token activations require guests to earn a branded token first. Most activation models work either way — the choice depends on the experience the client wants to create. See how dispense mechanics work.
Yes. Many activation models are designed to pair with each other. Golden Ticket layers onto several models. Micro Quest can feed into Sword in the Stone. Collectible Series pairs with Artist Collabs. Every activation shows which models it pairs with.
Every sticker is dispensed in a cardstock folder. Standard folders are blank. Custom folders turn that surface into four printable sides — redemption instructions, event maps, brand messaging, QR codes, or game extensions. Each activation uses folders differently.
Both options. Clients can bring a fully designed concept, or SFT can design the full experience — quest routes, token distribution, slot configuration, folder content, signage — as a creative add-on.
One machine can run one activation model or layer multiple together. A 4-slot machine running Golden Ticket with Collectible Series uses all four slots with rotating designs where some are redeemable.
