contingency and data security on the highest level.
Since the takeover in August 2018 by a private equity company, Stakelogic introduced over 43 new game titles, added 61 casino operators to its client base and more than quadrupled its revenue.
Stakelogic : triple digit growth with more to come available to as many players as possible.’
Stakelogic CEO, Stephan van den Oetelaar: ‘At the time of the acquisition of Stakelogic we recognised the enormous potential of the online gambling industry. In order to excel with Stakelogic, we focused and invested on three things: velocity, quality and distribution. We needed to extend our game portfolio with top class games that would be
DRGT to showcase its 2020 vision at ICE London event
DRGT will be at ICE showing its modular, flexible and cost-effective systems and jackpot solutions that have been installed across over 50 different countries, and on in excess of 60,000 gaming devices, boasting some of the most powerful functionality in the world. N2-240
An example of how DRGT helps enhance the player experience is that their Tables Management System now seamlessly integrates Tables gameplay data into their accounting, cage and reporting modules, in so doing bridging that former ‘technology gap’, and affording Tables Managers the ability to now offer their players the kind of functionality and rewards previously only available to Slots players. In addition, the company is also now able to offer operators the ability to award double loyalty points to the players of their much-publicised BlackJack11’s, and Poker21’s, side-bet jackpot games.
CEO, Jurgen De Munck said: “I believe the answer to that question is by hiring and training staff with the right attitude, then arming them with knowledge, and finally empowering them to make player-centric decisions. Te whole process has become extremely integrated, operators need to understand who are best suited to service their players, they then need to employ and train these like-minded individuals. We as systems service providers then need to provide these staff with the means to get to know and understand each and every player individually (the much talked about ‘player segment of one’), and finally, these staff then need to go out and do what they do best, fully cognisant of their capabilities, and the fact that they are empowered and armed with the tools and knowledge to make the correct player-centric decisions.”
Mr. De Munck added: “Advances in technology allowed us to provide a systems offering, at the
SCALING UP In order to do so Stakelogic in the last year recruited more than fifty experienced game developers from all over the world. Stakelogic obtained the Romanian and UK license in addition to its MGA license. Furthermore, Stakelogic games are now certified for Sweden, Denmark, Portugal, Spain and Italy.
And as creativity and technology go hand-in-hand in the online gambling industry, Stakelogic also obtained the ISO 27001 certificate, to ensure
INNOVATION IS KEY Te online gambling industry is developing rapidly. Advanced design and system development technology have made it possible that we can create our games faster and better. However, in order to stay successful over time, game developers as Stakelogic need to understand the player of tomorrow. Te game of tomorrow is all about experience. Art directors and game developers are first of all creative wizards that understand how to create the ultimate player experience.
For the coming period Van den Oetelaar explains: ‘Tis year, Stakelogic will surprise its clients with more new and different high-end global content. Games that will appeal to a wide range of players. Te game Expendables Megaways, that will be introduced on the ICE Exhibition, is an example of this strategy. Furthermore, Stakelogic will introduce a range of famous Reflex games specific for the UK market. We trust we will again grow the business of our clients.’
outset through our patented SMIB, that operates without a permanent server connection. It also afforded us the ability to provide more functionality than existing legacy systems, and furthermore ensured that we were able to install our product extremely quickly. A case in point was our installation at Grand Casino Basel, where we completed the entire change over in a single day during normal operating hours, and more recently in South Africa, where 6 of our staff completed a cashless migration across 3 venues comprising 80, 140 and 220 EGMs, each roughly 200km apart, in just 4 days including travel time; we truly are a formidable competitor.”
Towards the end of 2018, the company acquired Simplicit-e Gaming Solutions (SGS) in a joint venture with South African investment holding company Grand Parade Investments (GPI), and established DRGT Africa.
“Te relationships and network that both of these businesses have given us access to over the last 12 months has been invaluable, part of what you will see on our booth at ICE will bear testament to that,” said Charl Geyser, the former owner of SGS and now Managing Director of DRGT Africa.
Jean-Michel De Busscher, Managing Director of the company’s Belgian distribution business DRGT Online, added that whilst they are market-leaders, by some significant margin, in their home country
of Belgium, as well as in Switzerland, they remain under significant pressure, and rightly so, from competitors to maintain that status. “Our market leadership is jointly driven by our system augmentations, new products, and product extensions, alongside our operations and service support efforts. Together they keep us that proverbial ‘step ahead of the pack’,” he explained. “Where I see us having set ourselves apart, and where I believe we provide the best option in assisting operators in setting themselves apart, is our ability to help operators measure, understand, manage and then engage and communicate with their players.”
Mr. De Munck added: “When I and the rest of our development committee assess any development proposals, we always ask one question: ‘how will this enhance the player experience? Examples of these include the provision of faster registration functionality through our drSelfRegistration, easier loyalty point reward redemption through our drPlayerKiosk software, easier access to cashiers and the cage through our drRoamingCashier, the ability to send (and receive) direct messaging to individual EGMs, and as a result individual players, via our drMediaManager and our drScreen player interfaces, or the ability to now track, reward, and engage Tables players better as I mentioned earlier.”
