Paddy Power, a Dublin, Ireland based provider of online sports betting and sports betting shops, has introduced imageholders' interactive kiosks to its 620 stores, according to a press release.
The new kiosks have an Elo 32-inch color screen that offers features previously only available online. Along with core sporting information, the kiosk offers data segmented by price, stats, markets and tips in a visualized form.
Paddy Power has been an imageholders customer since 2015, with the two brands collaborating on retail solutions for the bookmakers' retail shops.
"We have used IH solutions in our 620 Paddy Power retail shops since 2015 and have always had a good working relationship with Pete Thompson," Ian Quinlan, technical field services manager at Paddy Power, said in the press release. "Every one of our shops will have at least one IH product. The latest concept is a trial product being used in our new shop openings and we will continue to monitor performance as we open shops in Q3/Q4 2022 and Q1 2023. Now that Pete has taken on a new challenge in Canada, we are looking forward to working with Adrian and the extended team at IH."
A new concept is currently under development that integrates a writing shelf, integrated NFC reader and thermal receipt printer, allowing patrons to simply log into their account via an NFC membership card and print a betting slip.
