Playtech [http://www.playtech.com ], the international designer, developer, licensor
and provider of software and services for the online, mobile, TV and land-based gaming
industry, is pleased to announce the launch of a Games Tab for its licensee and
established betting and gaming operator Ladbrokes.
The Games Tab which will be called "Vegas" on Ladbrokes' website is the first step in
the implementation of Playtech's complete turnkey solution for Ladbrokes and the
commencement of migration work between the two companies. Such addition to the Ladbrokes
website will feature 70 games but will offer Ladbrokes access to over 400 games and an
easy launch process for any new games Ladbrokes would like to offer in the future.
The Games Tab, which is part of Playtech's open games solution, integrates Playtech
games with third party games via a single platform. It also provides Ladbrokes with a
cross-platform capability that includes the ability to see the entire player lifecycle
across all games in the "Vegas" Games Tab.
In a competitive market such as gaming this is a tremendous advantage as it gives
operators the data necessary to maximise player value via promotional tools. Game-specific
bonuses, email campaigns and banners are just some of the tools available to operators on
Playtech's complete player management solution, called the IMS.
Shay Segev, Playtech's COO, said, "We are very happy to commence the migration of
Ladbrokes and offer it the Games Tab. The unique capabilities of the Tab that are backed
by Playtech's IMS solution offer our operators benefits that are second to none. Not only
can operators see the entire player experience across all platforms and games, they can
also use consumer behaviour analytics to maximise player value. This definitely indicates
the future of online gaming."
