The equipment is the one start-up cost we can show you exactly, and it is shown live: the prices in this guide come straight from our set pages, so they are always current. Everything else, from rent to staff, depends on your market. This guide shows what drives the equipment price, what else to budget for and how to estimate your own return.

Open a set to see its full contents and the price for each electronics generation. Every item in a set links to its own product page, so you can see what each part costs on its own.
What changes the price?
- Number of players. Outdoor sets equip 10 to 12 players; indoor systems are sold for 12, 18, 24, 30 or 36.
- Electronics generation. The same set costs a different amount in the 9th, 10th and 11th generation; see our generations compared guide.
- Tagger models. Standard play sets, realistic Steel edition guns and specialist taggers are priced differently.
- Game devices and extras. Devices, inflatable cover and arena design add to the total.
What else should you budget for?
We do not quote figures for these, because they vary too much by country and city:
- rent or a land agreement, and fit-out of the site or arena (walls, lighting, obstacles);
- insurance, permits and any local registration;
- staff: at least one trained instructor for every game;
- marketing for the first months;
- shipping and import duties, which depend on your country: our sales team confirms the shipping cost before you pay.
How do you work out the return?
A simple model you can fill in with your own local numbers:
| Line | How to estimate it |
|---|---|
| Monthly revenue | games per month × players per game × price per player, plus extras (parties, food and drinks, photos, tournaments) |
| Monthly running costs | rent, staff, utilities and charging, marketing, insurance, maintenance and spare parts |
| Monthly profit | monthly revenue − monthly running costs |
| Payback period (months) | equipment and set-up cost ÷ monthly profit |
The levers that move the result are utilisation (how full your games are), the average bill and how much equipment sits out of play. Read laser tag business profitability, extras that raise your average bill, how much a kit costs when it is out of play and what eats up an arena’s profits after launch.
How do you keep the cost down over time?
- Service, not replacement. We service our equipment for its whole life and sell spare parts often at cost price.
- Upgrade, do not rebuy. Trade-in fits new electronics into older sets for several times less than buying new ones.
- Free software. Every configurator and firmware release is free.
- Warranty. Every item carries our warranty from the date of purchase.
