Bally will replace competitors’ systems at 10 casinos in South Africa and Botswana in 2012.

The installations include a broad array of Bally’s latest systems applications, including SDS™ for Windows® and CMP™ casino-management systems.

Bally’s SDS Windows solution will be connected live to more than 3,200 gaming machines across Peermont’s operations using the latest high-speed networking technology.

Bally’s widely used promotional products Power Bonusing™ and Power Winners™ will be used by the gaming operator to aid in retaining existing players and attracting new guests to the properties.

Additionally, the TableView™ real-time table management solution will be deployed at Peermont. The casinos will also utilize Bally Business Intelligence™ for group-wide analytical, campaign management, and floor-monitoring capabilities across all properties to make well-informed decisions through the use of strong, objective data points.

Bally’s CoolSign® media-management solution will provide Peermont with integrated capabilities to deliver messages to players across all avenues of selected resorts, including restaurants, bars, and casino gaming areas.
