Income generation using Darwin

 

You can generate £1000s for your museum or gallery by using Darwin for your mobile tours.

You will have complete control over the content and interaction  – no need to wait for third parties to implement updates or to charge you for new content and additional tours.

Darwin’s mobile licence is a single fixed cost per device, regardless of how many tours you sell. So the more you sell, the higher your profits!

Fixed costs, bigger profits

After your hardware costs and Darwin licences there are no other expenses. The Darwin licence is single payment and not based on rentals – so the more often you rent your devices the more income you will make.
