Further ShoWare Business Progress
- 11 further contracts won across North and South America
- Continues new-year Group momentum, bringing total new contracts won since acquisition to 22
accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to the leisure, entertainment and cultural markets, today announces eleven further contract wins within its ShoWare™ division, the provider of leading, customisable cloud based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ticket sales and distribution solution.
Among the new clients joining the growing ShoWare stable are three venues and three independent producers in Mexico, the Credit Union iPlex in Saskatchewan, Canada, and four new venues in the USA. These new contracts include sports stadia, music & theatre venues and arts spaces and bring the total number of clients added since the acquisition to 22. Each of these 22 operators can now leverage the ShoWare solution to provide fully optimised ticketing solutions tailored to their customers' specific needs.
These wins prove accesso's ability to deliver on an expanded ticketing opportunity both in terms of venue size and vertical type, as well as reinforcing the rationale for the original ShoWare acquisition. These new wins will contribute repeatable and scalable revenue streams, helping to accelerate the growth of accesso's international reach and strategic expansion across the leisure industry.
Commenting, Tom Burnet, Chief Executive Officer of accesso Technology Group plc said:
"I'm delighted that ShoWare has so quickly established itself as a vital part of the Accessogroup. The product's versatility and user-friendliness continues to attract customers from a strategically important and diverse range of verticals and geographies, all of which are entirely complementary to our existing business."
