INTO Places survey 2026

In order to continue to improve our management of the INTO Places programme, we need to continue collecting data from member organisations about how the programme is working for you.

This year, we are asking questions in particular about digital membership products, as in 2026 a number of member organisations have plans to introduce products of this type.

The questionnaire below covers questions on the following topics. Please respond by Sunday, 3 May, in order to discuss the meeting at the next INTO Places call on Tuesday, 5 May.

The survey covers four themes in 21 questions:

  • INTO Places visitors to your places
  • Communicating about INTO Places
  • Welcoming visitors with digital membership cards
  • Your own digital membership cards

Questionnaire

In individuals, of all ages, if possible. An approximation is fine.

If it's an estimate, let us know.

Please tell us about those categories that can and cannot benefit from digital cards. Please reference all your relevant member types, e.g. youth and life members.
How does this differ from (former) physical cards, where relevant?
Please tell us about how this works: which wallets do you accept (e.g. Google wallet vs Apple)? If you use a digital wallet, is this required for your members or can they store it elsewhere (e.g. email)?
Please also share here any thoughts or concerns about how such products at sites within the INTO Places network.
Many of you will join us for our conference in Bavaria in the first week of November. We are still programming, what would you like to see on the agenda in relation to INTO Places?
