from web site
Manitoba-based Pollard Banknote announced that it will participate in the 2023 North American State and Local Lottery Association Annual Meeting in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. At the prestigious event, the company will showcase thrilling products and services, including three categories that deliver success for its partners: exciting gaming, retail excellence, and innovation.
NASPL is one of the largest annual industry events in North America. Attendees are usually U.S. states, Canada, and other participants. The purpose of the event is to focus on training networking and exhibitions by participants. This year's conference will be held from Oct. 30-Nov. 2, 2023, at the Milwaukee Convention Center in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
At the event, visitors can learn about Pollard Banknote's products, including EasyPack™. It is a large instant ticket conveniently offered at a traditional checkout counter and is sold on instant ticket vending machines. Visitors can also check out dedicated Scratch FX® products, Flip Scratch™, an incredible combination of pop-up windows and scratch-off games, and pop-up +™.
In addition, the provider's new digital printing technology is also on display, allowing you to get a greater number of ticket images in instant games and improve ticket graphics. We'll also show our commitment to lottery innovation in retail stores with products that improve customer exposure and access to instant games such as easyVEND™, HALO, and digital menu boards.
Easy VEND™ in-lane ITVM enables you to convert instant tickets to traditional Darlane retailers and addresses the growing importance of your own serving solutions. On the other hand, HALO allows retailers to provide color, lighting, and, of course, branding to counter dispensers using the cost-effective enhancement kit from the famous Schafer Retail Solutions+.
Meanwhile, Manitoban's digital menu board to boost sales offers an easily updateable LCD screen with custom graphics for all regulated markets, plus features to show video and animation, providing a fresh visual aspect to instant gaming in retail settings. According to estimates, this helped improve lottery sales by 13-17 percent.
