accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology

network. The agreement will also enable current accesso clients to
make their tickets available to a vastly expanded audience, gaining

with Google, today's announcement is a further demonstration of
accesso'sstrengthening position in the ticketing distribution
market after its entrance with the acquisition of Ingresso in
2017.
Paul Noland, CEO of accesso, commented:
"We're delighted to be announcing this partnership agreement
with Groupon, a globally recognised brand in the eCommerce space.
By partnering with Groupon we are responding to consumer demands
that want to buy their tickets all in one place, and we are
providing the backbone that allows them to do that".
Brian Fields, Groupon's Vice President and General Manager,
commented:
"Working with Ingresso gives us the ability to leverage our huge
presence on mobile to provide the best possible experience for our
customers and merchants. As one of the biggest marketplaces for
live entertainment in North America, this partnership will enable
us to bring even more choices to the tens of millions of Groupon
customers looking for fun things to do near them or where they
travel."

point-of-sale, virtual queuing, distribution and experience
management software.
Many of our team members come from backgrounds working within
the attractions and cultural industry. In this way, we are

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
