NOVOVISION CMS Celebrates Successful Go-live at Casino Tróia in Portugal
Casino Tróia is a popular gaming and entertainment venue on the Tróia Peninsula off the coast of Setúbal in Portugal. The elegant casino is part of the 5-star Tróia Design Hotel Resort and welcomes international visitors and local guests alike with a broad variety of gaming entertainment, comprising video slots of leading manufacturers as well as table games including Black Jack, Roulette and Poker.
To upgrade the casino’s player journey and enhance the internal business processes, the management of the Casino Tróia have opted for a visionary solution powered by NOVOMATIC: In early January, the NOVOVISION (NV) casino management system was successfully implemented in an Advanced setup comprising NV core as well as a number of additional modules that comprise nearly the entire gaming floor.
The first point of contact for the casino guests are the NV access registration desks, where they are enrolled with a player account and an NFC card for their NV wallet. Once all regulatory requirements and data protection obligations are fulfilled, guests are granted access to the gaming floor, where their next step will lead them to the NV promo PromoTower to participate in the casino’s promotional programme via the NOVOSPIN Wheel. Any wins will be directly booked into their single wallet and be instantly available for slots play.
All 150 video slots of leading manufacturers across the Casino Tróia have been retrofitted with NOVOVISION player tracking modules (PTM) for smooth and intuitive cashless gaming. They also ensure precise accounting processes and for player revenues to be consistently accounted for in the loyalty programme. Also the majority of the casino’s live tables have been equipped with NV tables accounting functionalities. NV pay guarantees the fast pay-out or purchase of additional credits at three cash desks and a brand new NCM 90 large-capacity cash terminal.
Floor staff benefit from the NOVOVISION Notifier app, which notifies selected users of any defined event according to their user role to ensure they can react to these alerts fast and accurate. At the same time, the Casino Tróia’s management will greatly appreciate the system’s powerful set of Business Intelligence functionalities that enable them to make informed decisions for their business, based on in-depth analysis of game, machine and player performance, promotions and the business trends as a whole.
Werner Kearns, Sales Manager NBS, said: “Casino Tróia is our second NOVOVISION installation in Portugal, which firstly shows how highly the Portuguese market appreciates visionary solutions, and secondly, it is a real testament to the excellent local service provided by our long-standing local distribution partner Marcos Pinto from Diverstock. It is very gratifying for me personally to see how our solution is gaining momentum with customers who recognise its true benefits and technical depth. I also extend my thanks to the management of Casino Tróia for their trust and the excellent cooperation of their local team with our NOVOVISION teams.”
Jorge Calado, General Manager Casino Tróia, said: “We are incredibly proud to implement this state-of-the-art management system, which not only enhances the quality of service we offer our customers but also delivers a more engaging and dynamic experience for them. This milestone is the culmination of months of dedicated effort and collaboration between our team at Casino Tróia, Diverstock, NOVOMATIC and the SRIJ (Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos). Thanks to this collective effort, we are now among the first casinos in Portugal to offer such an innovative solution to our guests. This achievement represents a significant step in our continuous journey of growth as we strengthen our value proposition and leverage innovation as a key differentiator in the national market. The new system expands our service offerings for guests while streamlining operations for our team, enabling faster, more efficient service and creating a smoother, more engaging customer experience.”

Slotegrator now provides native app experience for iGaming platforms with PWA function
Slotegrator’s platform solution now offers progressive web app (PWA) functionality, enabling operators to provide installable casino apps with push notifications, flexible branding, and seamless access across changing domains.
The Casino Builder module in Slotegator’s platform solution has been upgraded with a Progressive Web Application (PWA) feature that allows casinos to deliver an app-like experience without relying on the App Store or Google Play.
Native apps are powerful tools for building customer loyalty and enhancing engagement. However, iGaming brands face serious obstacles, such as strict marketplace policies, long review processes, geographic restrictions, and the constant threat of app removal. Slotegrator’s PWA functionality eliminates these barriers, allowing players to install a casino app directly from their browser and enjoy many of the same benefits as a native app.
After installation, the PWA opens from the user’s home screen, loads fast, and supports push notification integration that enhances player engagement and retention.
“Mobile is still the leading channel for user acquisition and retention; however, it’s difficult to distribute native apps in iGaming,” says Olga Ivanchik, COO at Slotegrator. “Our new PWA feature gives operators an alternative that will be familiar to their players, while eliminating the complications related to conventional app stores. Operators can launch quickly, retain full control over updates, and ensure a perfect mobile gaming experience for any market.”
Within the next 2 months, operators will also have the ability to determine when the PWA install bar will be visible to the player. For example, displaying the install bar immediately after the first deposit, as part of a broader retention strategy, helps drive long-term player LTV. The operator can also set up frequency of the install offer — daily, weekly, just once, etc.
Some operators have to consider UX for multiple frontends. Luckily, the installation widgets are highly flexible, helping them drive maximum conversion without sacrificing user experience. Operators can select a top bar or a top banner installation widget, both of which are fully customizable with branded icons, messaging, and backgrounds.
Operators can limit the visibility of their installation campaigns to specific devices — desktop, mobile, Android, or iOS — thanks to special targeting options. Operators can also design acquisition strategies specific to each platform, driving installs only where they offer the best user experience.
When players install the PWA, operators can connect it to push notification services, so they can re-engage them even when the application isn’t actively open.
Mirror domain compatibility addresses a common operational challenge in restricted markets. If an operator has to change domains due to licensing or regulatory requirements, players who have already installed the PWA will be able to continue using it without reinstallation.
Unlike native applications, PWAs don’t require App Store or Google Play approval, effectively eliminating possible delays and the risk of removal from the market. Instead, operators can deploy updates instantly to every user.
The new PWA functionality is now available in Slotegrator’s Casino Builder module, alongside other tools for improving mobile acquisition, engagement, and player retention.

SCCG Management Launches SCCG Technology, Delivering AI-Driven Solutions to the iGaming Industry
New division delivers smart, AI-driven technology solutions to gaming operators, suppliers, and ventures worldwide, built on the same stack SCCG uses to run its own global advisory business.
SCCG Management announces the launch of SCCG Technology, a dedicated division built to deliver intelligent, AI-driven solutions to the iGaming industry. Where SCCG has spent three decades advising gaming companies on what to build, SCCG Technology now builds it.
The division launches with a working portfolio, not a promise. Over the past year, SCCG has re-engineered its own global operation around artificial intelligence: automated content and newsletter systems reaching tens of thousands of industry professionals weekly, real-time market and odds data pipelines feeding its prediction-market ventures,
and AI-assisted CRM and pipeline automation across more than 120 active client engagements.
The proving ground is SCCG’s own digital presence, now being rebuilt on the division’s platform: a site that reassembles itself around each visitor and publishes across every channel from one place. An operator in LATAM and an investor in Las Vegas see the same network through different eyes. Content is AI-accelerated but expert-governed: every AI-assisted claim is labeled and traceable to its source, a discipline that matters in a regulated industry. We built it for the most demanding client we have, ourselves, before offering it to anyone else.
The timing reflects a structural shift in the industry. Operators and suppliers no longer compete only on licenses and content; they compete on data, speed, and the intelligence of their customer experience. AI has moved from experiment to infrastructure, reshaping how players are acquired, how content is produced, how markets are priced, and how compliance is managed. Most gaming companies know this. Far fewer have a partner that understands both the technology and the industry it has to serve.
“Every gaming company I speak with is asking the same two questions: what should we be doing with AI, and who can actually build it for us without a two-year learning curve on how this industry works. SCCG Technology exists because we solved that problem for ourselves first. Now we are opening the toolkit to the industry.” – Stephen A. Crystal, Founder and CEO, SCCG Management
SCCG Technology will deliver across five service lines:
Product Strategy and Build: Carrying a gaming concept from advisory whiteboard to working software. Rapid prototyping and delivery of new gaming products and ventures, the capability a strategy deck cannot substitute for.
Data, Analytics, and Market Intelligence: Real-time odds and market data pipelines, prediction-market tooling, and business intelligence dashboards that put operational truth in front of decision-makers daily.
Compliance-Aware AI Content and Marketing Systems: Automated content production, newsletter and campaign engines, and CRM automation built for a regulated industry, AI-assisted output labeled and traceable, brand voice intact.
AI Operations and Automation: Workflow automation and applied AI across the back office, from player-facing support to reporting, compliance preparation, and the operational plumbing gaming companies run on.
Intelligent Web and Digital Platforms: Digital experiences that personalize by visitor role and region, engineered for conversion and structured for both traditional search and the AI answer engines that increasingly drive discovery.
What separates SCCG Technology from a generalist agency or dev shop is the firm behind it. Every engagement draws on SCCG Management’s 30-plus years inside the gaming industry, its regulatory and commercial expertise across dozens of jurisdictions, and a global client network spanning operators, platforms, suppliers, and investors. SCCG Technology does not need the industry explained to it.
The launch continues a deliberate expansion of the SCCG platform. In the past year the firm has established SCCG LATAM with its Miami office, launched SCCG Brazil with dedicated local leadership, and expanded its managed-services offering for casino operators. SCCG Technology is the connective layer across all of it: the division that turns the firm’s advisory insight into deployed, working technology. The model is expert-governed and AI-accelerated: SCCG’s people supply the industry judgment, and the platform supplies the speed.
“The gaming industry does not have a shortage of technology vendors. It has a shortage of technology partners who understand gaming. That is the gap SCCG Technology was built to close.” – Stephen A. Crystal, Founder and CEO, SCCG Management
SCCG Technology operates as a division of SCCG Management, the gaming industry’s global advisory firm. With more than 30 years of experience, more than 120 active client engagements worldwide, and offices spanning North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Asia, SCCG provides end-to-end advisory services across iGaming, sports betting, sweepstakes, tribal gaming, and casino technology.
