Continued ShoWare™ Business Success

 

-  ShoWare signs new or extended contracts with eight North American clients -

 

accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to leisure, entertainment and cultural markets, today announces eight new or expanded contract wins for ShoWare: the Group's recently acquired customisable, cloud-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ticket sales and distribution solution.

 

These wins reflect ShoWare's excellent momentum, and add to a key transactional and recurring revenue stream for the Group.

 

ShoWare's ongoing success across North and South America is helping drive accesso'sexpansion throughout the leisure, entertainment and cultural spaces. The platform can now count Boyden Cavern Adventures and Tours in Kings Canyon, California; Corsicana Palace Theatre in Corsicana, Texas; Mount Royal University in Canada; and the Downtown Grand Casino and Hotel in Las Vegas among its clients.

 

Event promoters also continue to take up the ShoWare ticketing solution, aided by the greater responsiveness, flexibility and control it gives providers over their ticketing operations. River Rock Entertainment has now secured the exclusive rights to promote events at The River Stages in Roanoke, Virginia, and Maria Luisa Tosatdo, an entertainment promoter based in Sinaloa, Mexico, has also joined the growing list of ShoWare adopters.

Elsewhere, OnStage Tix and Carolina Crown and the Funk Fest Tour 2015 have extended or expanded their existing relationships.

 

Commenting, Tom Burnet, Chief Executive Officer of accesso Technology Group plc said:

 

"ShoWare continues to go from strength to strength in the Americas, and we're delighted by the diversity of venues and promoters it is attracting to the Accesso portfolio. The platform is helping the Group embed itself in this new vertical in the ticketing market, where we're now one of the largest providers in the world."
