VizExplorer Forms Strategic Partnership with B2B Social Casino Provider OpenWagerVizExplorer, a leading provider of operational intelligence solutions for casinos, today announced that it has partnered with OpenWager, a custom branded social casino platform provider. Pursuant to the partnership, the companies will launch VizExplorer® SocialLink™ for OpenWager for integration with VizExplorer applications to enable casinos to use social games to drive incremental property visits. The technology partnership between the two companies arises from the growing adoption by casinos of social casinos into their marketing mix, and their constant need to drive more players to visit their properties more often. The OpenWager Platform is one of the first technology platforms to enable rapid delivery and operation of a wide range of customizable social casino games that let casinos stay connected to current customers and acquire new players. OpenWager technology will initially be integrated with campaignViz™-VizExplorer's marketing campaign tool-to give casino marketers a view into social casino players' cross-channel behavior and a direct marketing channel through which to deliver offers to prompt visits and on-property activity. Future integrations with slot optimization tool floorViz™ and later hostVizOps™, the company's sales enablement solution for intelligent player development, will provide additional player analysis tools to see both online and on-property activity to further inform marketig offers and player development strategy. "We are thrilled that OpenWager has been selected to be VizExplorer's social casino partner. We believe in the power of the social casinos to drive visits, engage players anywhere, and extend a casino's brand to social and mobile, and look forward to partnering with VizExplorer to prove the use case to operators considering the move to a social casino," said John Cahill, OpenWager CEO. "Many customers are already dabbling with social casinos, but are missing the deeper analytics and direct marketing ability to help them truly understand and engage this audience," said VizExplorer CEO Ian Bonner. "Adding analysis of social gaming behavior is a boon for marketers seeking to connect with players when they're online and on their mobile devices." According to gaming market research firm Eilers & Krejcik Gaming, social casino games will become a $4.4 billion market in 2017. The companies will demonstrate VizExplorer® SocialLink™ for OpenWager at the 2017 Indian Gaming Tradeshow & Convention, held April 10-13 at the San Diego Convention Center.
