Scientific Games’ newly developed SCiQ technology for lottery retail stores has been launched in Kansas, US.
“Our retailers embraced modernising lottery in their stores,” said Stephen Ortiz, Kansas lottery director of sales and marketing. “SCiQ has benefited their lottery sales and simplified operations at their check-out counters.
“The system helps maintain game inventory, rather than it being a manual function, and they like the product security the locked SCiQ bins offer. The greatest impact is that SCiQ takes the guesswork out of instant game inventory with store-level analytics and insights tied to planograms.”
SCiQ provides retailers with a suite of features, including fully integrated digital menu boards for modern product display, automated inventory management, real-time store-specific sales and market basket performance reports and enhanced product security.
“The Kansas Lottery’s approach with our 1,500 retailers is to provide services and seek opportunities to use technology that helps make their operations more efficient and profitable,” Ortiz shared. “Once the SCiQ project began with our chain retailers, word traveled like the wind, as they say in Kansas. It didn’t take long for our more progressive independent retailers to ask how they could get this technology in their stores.”
