Bally Technologies has won a major new contract to provide key systems and server-based solutions at 17 Sun International casinos across Africa and South America.
The agreement will see Bally’s iVIEW player-user-interface and iVIEW Display Manager connected to more than 12,000 gaming machines and table games. The majority of Sun International casinos in Africa will use Bally’s CMP distributed architecture to allow patrons a single-card environment across multiple properties. CMP provides player-tracking and bonusing solutions, enabling casinos to gather, track and report mission-critical player data.
"We went through an extensive evaluation process spanning more than nine months, in which we looked at seven different system providers," said Sun International CEO David Coutts-Trotter. "Bally offers the most robust and secure solutions for our extensive multi-casino enterprise and provides a host of bonusing solutions to truly enhance the player experience at the game and provide patrons with a new generation of bonusing abilities."
The installation of Bally’s systems is to begin in 2012 with all the solutions it is providing to be live at all of the 17 casino sites towards the end of 2013.
"Sun International has selected an outstanding portfolio of solutions that will not only streamline and increase efficiencies, but deliver Bally systems’ trail-blazing promotional capabilities at the point of play," said Ramesh Srinivasan, Bally’s president and chief operating officer. "This partnership is a result of our commitment to aligning world-class back-of-the-house management systems with ground-breaking bonusing and customer-service solutions."
