("accesso" or the "Group")
Long-Term Extension with Village Roadshow
accesso secures 5-year contract extension with Australia's
Largest Theme Park Operator, with the option of a further two
years
Contract sees accesso provide virtual queuing, ticketing, guest
experience and distribution solutions
accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO) , the premier
technology solutions provider for attractions and venues worldwide,
has announced an extension to its agreement with Village Roadshow
Theme Parks (VRTP), through which VRTP will continue use of accesso
ticketing, virtual queuing, guest experience management and
distribution technologies at five of its properties - Warner Bros.
Movie World, Wet'n'Wild Gold Coast, Sea World (Australia),
Australian Outback Spectacular and Paradise Country - through 2027,
with the option to extend further through 2029.
Since 2018, VRTP has leveraged the end-to-end suite of the
Group's technologies tailored to the attractions industry to
deliver a reimagined, contactless experience for its guests, both
on- and off-site. Headquartered on the Gold Coast, VRTP is
Australia's largest theme park operator, welcoming millions of
guests annually to enjoy some of the most thrilling entertainment,
rides and slides available anywhere in the world - from
hyper-coasters to animal encounters and dinner show
productions.
VRTP's holistic integration of the Group's technology
encompasses four unique solutions:
-- The fully hosted accesso Passport (Ò) ticketing solution,
VRTP is empowered to deliver an intuitive and streamlined
eCommerce experience to its guests on any device. Onsite,
the accesso Passport ticketing suite provides VRTP a simplified
front gate point of sale - focused on driving improved
sales results - as well as robust access control options.
-- accesso's patented LoQueue (Ò) suite of virtual
queuing solutions allows VRTP to free its guests from
physical queues, empowering them to explore all its attractions
have to offer.
-- accesso's guest experience management platform serves
to bridge the physical and digital aspects of a guest's
journey, giving operators insight to every step of a guest's
experience - pre-, during and post-visit. VRTP leverages
the accesso guest experience management platform to power
its all-in-one mobile app, which acts as a virtual assistant
for guests and generates immersive, in-park experiences.
-- The accesso ticketing distribution platform provides operators
like VRTP access to an expansive network of global ticket
distribution channels, reaching more than 1 billion consumers
worldwide. The solution allows ticket sales to be made
in real time, eliminating the need for ticket allocations.
Bikash Randhawa, VRTP COO, commented:
"Since partnering with Accesso, we have worked closely with
their team to successfully implement their technology to our
properties and enhance our customer experience. We look forward to
continuing working with them and seeing what our teams will
accomplish together over the years to come."
Steve Brown, CEO of accesso, commented:
"Through our long-standing partnership with Village Roadshow
Theme Parks, our integrated range of technology solutions works
seamlessly together to improve the guest experience while driving
improved operational and financial results. We are thrilled to have
extended this partnership and look forward to working hand-in-hand
with Village Roadshow Theme Parks to continue meeting and exceeding
their guests' expectations for years to come."

About accesso Technology Group
At accesso, we believe technology has the power to redefine the
guest experience. Our patented and award-winning solutions drive
increased revenue for attraction operators while improving the
guest experience. Currently serving over 1,000 clients in more than
30 countries around the globe, accesso's solutions help our clients
streamline operations, generate increased revenues, improve guest
satisfaction and harness the power of data to educate business and
marketing decisions.
accesso stands as the leading technology provider of choice for
tomorrow's attractions, venues and institutions. We invest heavily
in research and development because our industries demand it, our
clients benefit from it and it makes a positive impact on the guest
experience. Our innovative technology solutions allow venues to
increase the volume and range of on-site spending and to drive
increased transaction-based revenue through cutting edge ticketing,
point-of-sale, virtual queuing, distribution and experience
management software.
Furthermore, COVID-19 has highlighted the benefits our
technology is able to bring to venues from facilitating social
distancing using our robust and sophisticated virtual queuing
solutions; reservation systems delivered through our agile
eCommerce platform to enable capacity management, taking queues
away from front gates; and attraction eateries utilising our
contactless food and beverage offerings.
Many of our team members come from backgrounds working within
the attractions and cultural industry. In this way, we are
experienced operators who run a technology company serving
attractions operators, versus a technology company that happens to
serve the market. Our staff understand the day-to-day operations of
managing complex venues and the challenges this creates, and
together we strive to provide our clients and their guests with
technology that empowers them to do more and enjoy more. From our
agile development team to our dedicated client service specialists,
every team member knows that their passion, integrity, commitment,
teamwork and innovation are what drive our success.
