Carrus Gaming will deliver its latest generation of ELITE-terminals, which offer retailers speed and ease of processing documents (e.g. play slips, receipts, instant tickets, etc.), as well as new opportunities for designing innovative play slips for special events.
Thanks to the new design of the ELITE-terminal, embedding dual-access to the reading area, LOTTO Bayern will enhance and improve the customer experience and provide greater transparency throughout the gaming process. Both the accompanying software and Terminal Management Suite will be developed in partnership with FDJ Gaming Solutions, a subsidiary of the French lottery operator, la Française des Jeux.
The rollout of the ELITE-terminals will take place in the second half of 2022.
“We are proud to extend our presence in Germany through this new project with LOTTO Bayern, one of the largest German gambling operators to select our solutions. We are pleased to see that our R&D investments in camera-based lottery terminals are setting the new market standard.”
– Timothée Carrus, CEO of Groupe Carrus
