NOVOMATIC to Showcase Latest Products at Peru Gaming Show
NOVOMATIC has confirmed its attendance at the upcoming Peru Gaming Show (PGS) 2023 event, set to take place on June 14-15 at the Jockey Exposition Center in Lima. At stand #53, the company will showcase its latest highlights for the region.
Operators from the region can look forward to the most recent NOVOMATIC cabinet highlights such as the BLACK EDITION II XL 3.32. Recently launched at ICE in London, this new cabinet is an apt successor of the original BLACK EDITION with a setup of three characteristically angled 32” screens, top ergonomics and a stunning XL appearance on the floor. At the PGS, it will be presented with the NOVO LINE CASH CONNECTION Edition 4, comprising 20 linked games, among them the stunning Candelas de los Muertos titles.
Another cabinet highlight on display in Lima will be the DIAMOND X 3.32 presenting the NOVO LINE Interactive Edition X3. This exciting achievement in cabinet design came in second at the recent Global Gaming Awards in London in the category “Product Launch of the Year” and has made a top impact in terms of customer interest and performance right from the start. Also the best-selling PANTHERA Curve 1.43 will be shown with the NOVO LINE Interactive Concurve Edition 6 multi-game compendium and its fine choice of upright games.
Electronic Table Games will be represented by the OPTIMUM ROULETTE from FAZI: This automated multiplayer Roulette with eight player positions is a premium ETG solution that Peru’s venues should not miss. NOVOMATIC sports betting kiosks continue to be in great demand. In Peru, the multi-screen version NOVOMATIC ActionBook Plus will be on display. Together with the table-top version NOVOMATIC ActionBook Compact, both deliver the perfect kiosk hardware solutions for all kinds of space and positioning requirements.
A special premiere at PGS will be the presentation of the innovative NOVOVISION casino management system. This powerful solution takes all areas of a casino business to another level, with a uniquely comprehensive range of functionalities that far exceed the traditional Accounting, Jackpots, Player Tracking, CASHLESS and TITO transactions. As a distinctive USP, NOVOVISION introduces biometric technologies for the management of gaming operations, e.g. for player recognition and access. Worldwide, more than 40,000 gaming machines, 3000 betting terminals and 1300 ATMs are connected to this sophisticated software, which has been awarded as “Best CMS/Software Product” at the recent European Casino Awards in London.
Katty López, Sales Director of Crown Gaming Peru, characterizes the NOVOMATIC portfolio for this year’s PGS as a comprehensive collection of must-have products. She says: “It comes at the perfect point in time, with the current upswing in Peruvian market and all the development in the online and betting segments across the region’s markets. We are very excited to be able to show our customers our varied 360° portfolio of solutions that cater to the requirements they are going to have.”
Max Bauer, NOVOMATIC Vice President LATAM & Caribbean, says: “NOVOMATIC’s capabilities far transcend the products currently marketed in Latin America, and that is what we want to make known at PGS. The present and the future will merge on our stand to host our customers’ actual needs as well as to nurture their visions for upcoming projects, thus seeking to broaden the industry’s perspective through novel solutions in the region.”

Be #GiftSmart: Scratch the Idea of Gifting Scratch & Win Tickets to Kids
BCLC reminds adults to gift responsibly this holiday season
With the holiday season in full swing, BCLC is reminding British Columbians to gift responsibly and scratch lottery products from their shopping lists for kids.
“Scratch & Win tickets can make great stocking stuffers for the adults in your life, but they’re not for kids,” said Ryan McCarthy, BCLC’s Director of Player Health. “The research shows that children who have early encounters with gambling are four times more likely to develop riskier gambling behaviour as they grow up. While people are out shopping for those last-minute gifts, BCLC wants adults to be aware of the potential risks associated with gifting lottery products to children and to consider safer alternatives.”
While Scratch & Win tickets are among the most common ways kids can be introduced to gambling, children are increasingly exposed to various online forms, such as gambling streams.
“With the convergence of gaming and gambling, youth are becoming more exposed to gambling content in online spaces like streaming sites, where creators are able to live-stream their own gambling, usually while playing online slots and instant games,” said Dr. Luke Clark, Director for Gambling Research at UBC. “Our research at the UBC Centre for Gambling shows that a higher frequency of watching online gambling streams is associated with a more positive attitude towards gambling and a high intention to gamble in the future.”
In B.C., it is illegal to sell lottery products to anyone under the age of 19 and BCLC encourages adults to have conversations with the kids in their lives about the risks associated with gambling.
“Open and honest conversations are crucial when it comes to navigating childhood exposure to gambling,” said McCarthy, who shared the following tips to adults:
- Monitor for gambling-related lifestyle changes. For example, developing a positive attitude towards gambling or a preoccupation with video games or streaming sites.
- Be a positive role model. Exhibit safer gambling behaviour and talk about the risks.
- Limit exposure. Monitor kids’ online activities and discourage engagement with gambling content. Explain how gambling is based on chance.
