HERZLIYA, Israel, Nov. 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NayaxLtd. (Nasdaq: NYAX; TASE: NYAX) - a global commerce enablement and payments platform designed to help merchants scale their business by simplifying payments and maximizing loyalty, is proud to showcase its broad range of end-to-end solutions for the amusement sector at the IAAPA Expo 2024 in Orlando, Florida.

Nayax provides an all-in-one solution tailored for the amusement industry. It offers frictionless payments, flexible pricing for players, operational efficiency through a management web platform and mobile app, and a complete engagement and loyalty suite to drive customer retention.

Tigapo, Nayax’s line of products for amusement and FECs, offers an end-to-end ecosystem that brings state-of-the-art technology to the world of arcades. It includes a cloud-based management platform, an easy-to-use app, and sophisticated predictive algorithms, meeting consumer demand for more engagement, immersive experiences, and a mobile-first approach.

Tigapo is proud to launch two revolutionary new products at the IAAPA Expo 2024:

ChaTi is a pioneering AI chatbot that provides operators with real-time insights and personalized recommendations based on player data, machine performance monitoring, revenue tracking identifying the most profitable machines, and performance forecasting. ChaTi will help optimize profitability, predict trends, and empower operators to make faster, smarter business decisions, saving them time and money.

Tigapo will also launch the industry’s most advanced game activation readers with interactive screens both for players and operators, which showcase in-app challenges and back-end management systems and empower operators to socialize gameplay through arcade-wide leaderboards.

One of Nayax’s goals is to help operators manage their business easily. With that in mind, Nayax will launch Connect2Play, a new plug-and-play cable that seamlessly and quickly connects Nayax’s VPOS Touch payment device to nearly any unattended amusement machine. Connect2Play facilitates fast, simple, and reliable installation in the field with no specialized technical knowledge, reducing time and money spent on manual labor and installation.

Coupled with Nayax’s EasitFit 2.0 bill validator adaptor, which enables both cash and cashless payment acceptance from the same machine knock-out, Nayax’s complete solution reduces operational costs while increasing revenue generation with comprehensive telemetry and pulse mode options.

“We are delighted to introduce new capabilities to the amusement sector at this year’s IAAPA Expo,” says Carly Furman, CEO of Nayax North America. “Built with flexibility in mind, our cost-effective, scalable solutions enable amusement business operators to focus on what matters - delivering an exceptional customer experience and increasing revenue.
