Playtech, the leading gaming technology company, has reached a new milestone in its partnership with Buzz Bingo, with a single digital wallet, now powering all physical clubs and online operations.
Powered by Playtech’s flagship IMS platform, the single digital wallet instance provides full connectivity across Buzz Bingo’s retail and online environments – the result of a long-term project that underpins the Playtech ONE vision.
The single digital wallet allows players to enjoy bingo, slots and other virtual gaming verticals using a single account to play with, with the flexibility to deposit credits online and use them at a physical club (and vice versa) or withdraw earnings anywhere. In addition, it also enables cross-channel CRM activities using the Playtech Engagement Center toolset, providing a more integrated experience for gamers.
Marat Koss, Vice President of Interactive Gaming at Playtech, commented, “This is an important milestone for Buzz Bingo, Playtech, and our long-term partnership. An incredible amount of work has gone into achieving unified digital wallet connectivity across all retail and online operations, both for our team and everyone at Buzz Bingo. We are very proud to be a part of delivering an enhanced experience for players from all Buzz and Buzz Bingo clubs online.”
David Evans, Director of Digital Operations at Buzz Bingo, added: “Playtech has been a vital partner in the Buzz Bingo journey since day one, and the achievement of delivering a single digital wallet across our entire retail and online presence cannot be more important. Against a backdrop of highly challenging times with long-term gaming club closures during the COVID-19 pandemic, our partnership has created something truly groundbreaking.”
