Group Play

Group play makes available the traditional social aspects of gaming into the interactive space while also implementing ideas prevalent in today’s social networks to extend group participation and community-building through to all channels and touchpoints of the operator.

Group Play is a collection of methods of participation into the games, as enabled through the Unified Gaming Suite, which all have one common characteristic: they allow customers to play together through methods allowing common participation into pool games, sports games etc or others where such participation style is applicable.

Group Play brings together traditional methods of participating into pool games (friend purchasing a ticket together, agents issuing a master ticket to which customers can buy shares etc) with modern methods of social networking and community building as present in today’s online interactive communities.

Group Play supports various participation methods and features:

• Group Play among friends
• Group Play among all customers
• Predetermined group participation methods (e.g. syndicates – for which a variety of options for online management are made available)
• Ad-hoc group play allowing users to create common participation opportunities, propositions or tickets and attracting or inviting other users to become part of the group
• Deep integration with the customers’ online presence and social networks (under the customer’s full control)
