Agreement with Village Roadshow Theme Parks for accesso
Passport(R)
- Five-year agreement with Australia's largest theme park
operator -
- Contract demonstrates accesso's expanding footprint in an
important growth region -
accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology
solutions provider to leisure, entertainment and cultural markets,
today announces a five-year agreement with Village Roadshow Theme
Parks ("Village Roadshow"), Australia's largest theme park
operator, to install the accesso Passport ticketing suite in key
attractions across the country.
The accesso Passport eCommerce solution will be go-live from
spring next year at Warner Bros. Movie World; Wet'n'Wild Sydney;
Wet'n'Wild Gold Coast; Paradise Country; and Sea World (Australia).
Each of these venues will deploy accesso Passport's comprehensive,
secure and fully-hosted online shopping experience to improve the
guest-purchasing experience and drive incremental revenue from its
eCommerce and front gate ticketing operations.
Importantly, this contract represents a significant expansion of
an existing relationship, following the installation of Qband(SM) ,
an accesso LoQueue(SM) virtual queuing solution, at Village
Roadshow's Wet'n'Wild Sydney in 2016. It also demonstrates
accesso's ongoing commitment to expanding its reach across new
markets and geographies. The Asia-Pacific region is a key growth
area for the Group, and this win is a reflection of the progress
accesso is making in establishing a foothold there.
Steve Brown, Chief Executive Officer of accesso commented:
"We are thrilled to expand upon our relationship with Village
Roadshow Theme Parks and look forward to further growing Accesso's
presence in Australia. This agreement illustrates Village Roadshow
Theme Park's continued confidence in our suite of solutions and
their commitment to crafting a truly unforgettable experience for
their guests."
Adrian Karzon, Head of Information Technology for Village
Roadshow Theme Parks said:
"As Australia's leading theme park operator, we are always
looking for new ways to improve the guest experience and drive
revenue. By expanding on our partnership with Accesso, we look
forward to streamlining our ticketing and eCommerce operations to
ensure that our guests have an enjoyable experience from the moment
they purchase their tickets and throughout their visit."
