NOVOVISION CMS Offers Advanced Casino Solutions

The start of 2025 has been an outstanding year for the NOVOMATIC systems unit. Following successful installations with prominent customers in Portugal and the United Kingdom, the company celebrated a significant milestone at the International Casino Exhibition (ICE) in Barcelona, marking the best showcase of its renowned NOVOVISION™ casino management system (CMS) to date. The event not only highlighted the innovative features of NOVOVISION™, but also solidified its position as a game-changer in the casino management landscape. As part of the larger NOVOMATIC product suite or as a standalone solution, NOVOVISION™ has established itself as a powerful CMS tool, capable of delivering high performance and reliability to casinos and operators worldwide.

A Milestone Moment: NOVOVISION™ at ICE 2025

The attention that NOVOVISION™ garnered at ICE 2025 was immense, with operators from around the globe flocking to the NOVOMATIC booth to experience its new functionalities firsthand. The comprehensive capabilities of NOVOVISION™ were presented in two distinct setups at the show, each one designed to emphasize the system’s versatility in both high-traffic environments and smaller club operations. The overarching theme of the presentation was the system’s ability to streamline casino management processes, improve operational efficiency, and boost player satisfaction.

A key feature of the stand was a biometrically enhanced access installation with sleek flap gates, which not only served as a functional entry point but also as a visual divider between the two demo areas. This feature highlighted the system’s advanced biometric capabilities, allowing for secure, seamless, and efficient player access across different types of gaming environments.

High-Traffic Architecture: Enhancing Casino Operations

At the heart of the casino-focused demo was the system’s ability to manage high volumes of players while ensuring compliance with modern gaming regulations. With the option for Ticket-In-Ticket-Out (TITO), cashless solutions, and biometric wallet systems, NOVOVISION™ allows operators to offer a range of convenient payment and player tracking options. The integration of these advanced technologies ensures a highly personalized player journey, which is fully compliant with responsible gaming protocols.

A standout feature of the casino setup was the system’s emphasis on detailed player tracking. This feature empowers operators to gain deeper insights into player behavior, providing them with the tools necessary to implement targeted loyalty programs and enhance overall customer satisfaction. The system’s ability to manage and store player data in a secure, compliant manner ensures that operators can remain ahead of regulatory requirements while offering an exceptional gaming experience.

NOVOVISION™ Self-Service Stations: Revolutionizing Customer Registration

One of the most exciting new additions to NOVOVISION™ was the triple version of its self-service station. The innovative self-service kiosk serves three distinct functions: loyalty kiosk, promotional service point, and Self-Registration Terminal (SRT). The SRT, in particular, represents a leap forward in the registration process, transforming it into a fast, secure, and intuitive self-service experience.

The SRT utilizes a 32” Full HD screen with Projected Capacitive (PCAP) touch technology, which provides users with a responsive and easy-to-navigate interface. Players can register quickly, select their preferred language, and navigate the menu with ease. The station can also be tailored to suit individual operator preferences, as well as any prevailing regulatory requirements.

A major benefit of the SRT is its ability to support a range of optional components, such as an OCR document scanner, ID card reader, camera, and QR code printer. This flexibility enables operators to collect the necessary player data in a compliant manner, while also offering players an anonymous play option if desired. The combination of functionality and security makes NOVOVISION™ SRT a game-changer for casinos seeking to optimize their customer registration process.

NOVOVISION™ Panorama: Enhancing Player Experience

Another highlight at ICE 2025 was the new NOVOVISION™ panorama picture-in-picture feature, which enhances the overall player experience by integrating various content types into the gaming interface. By transferring the PTM player interface to the bottom screen of the gaming machine, the feature increases the usability of the interface and adds an extra layer of convenience for players. Whether it's in-game data, streaming content, or other updates, the panorama feature ensures that players have access to all relevant information without disrupting their gameplay.

This innovation underscores NOVOMATIC’s commitment to creating an engaging, dynamic, and user-friendly gaming environment that appeals to both operators and players alike.

Tournament Solutions and Business Intelligence (BI): A Comprehensive Approach

In addition to its player tracking and self-service capabilities, NOVOVISION™ also introduced advanced functionalities for tournament management, business intelligence (BI), and jackpot management. These tools help operators streamline the administration of tournaments, gain valuable insights into player trends, and manage jackpots with ease.

The tournament solution, in particular, attracted significant attention at the show, with operators praising its flexibility and ease of use. The system offers a range of customizable features that allow operators to design and manage complex tournaments across different gaming platforms. By integrating BI tools into the system, operators can gather detailed data on player behavior, optimize their operations, and create tailored promotions that drive player engagement.
