“In many senses, Betware stands apart from this new generation. It has a proven track record stretching back years with a robust platform designed to withstand the large volume of customers expected by lotteries such as Danske Spil and the Spanish national lottery. However, it is also a small business, which is yet to fulfil its whole potential, and its attitude and philosophy fit perfectly with the new breed.”

The multisourcing approach goes hand in hand with Betware´s product offering:

“Betware’s Gaming Platform is built to allow operators to expand their businesses by adding games of their choice and not locking them in,” explains Betware CEO Stefan Hrafnkelsson in the article. “Betware is focusing on a multi-source strategy, allowing operators to mix a variety of game zones from different suppliers, where the Betware Gaming Platform is the glue that binds everything together.”

Listen to your players, give them what they want and expect and your gaming business can flourish for years to come.

Solving the speed to market problem

The nature of retail is to stay ahead of the customer predicting the needs of the market to deliver the very best products in the exact shape and manner they are desired. This is particularly true of lottery products or services that are rather impulse purchases. The components that form today’s gaming market are evolving quickly and modern lotteries need to compete not only with gaming operators but with other forms of fun and entertainment available at a similar price level. Therefore the success of a lottery in many ways depends on its ability to keep up with the latest market trends when it comes to products, sales channels or ways of communicating with the player. Multisourcing could be just the answer to securing a lottery’s future.
