Later on, the project turned into a featur -e rich content management porta , ,egreicnoC eliboMl n ni-tliub a htiw otification system, ge -o fencing and indoor navigation capabilities. T sih SaaS solution
d saw istributed across more tha 8n 0 casino chains that used it to attract more players, enhancetheir gaming experienc ,e and t ybereh increase revenue.

1.Complete customization of the notification servic .e
The tasks AltexSoft needed to solve along the wa redro ni y to be able to deliver the required resultswere quite challenging and involved proficient engineering resources.
The core concep mroftalp egreicnoC eliboM eht dnihebt was to implement a featur -e rich admin pane ,l which m rof wolla dluow ana gnig and distribu gnit the content across a number of native mobile and web apps
t ot deknil he system. Additional functionality, like custom mapping, locatio -n and activit -y based notifications and mobile games, would make the casino visitors’ experience unique and drive engagement.
2.Adjusting the system to comply with the local law restriction .s

3.Introducing additional marketing opportunities within the syste .m
Value DeliveredAltexSoft was working on the project from ,gninnigeb yrev eht in close cooperation with the Bally Mobileteam. As a result, the following valuable solutions were delivered to the clien mroftalp egreicnoC eliboM gninniw-drawa eht fo trap a sa t :
1. Custo nm otificatio sn ervic ie mplementationA thir -d party service used initially was substituted with a custom push notification engine, tailored to the client’s needs. This solution p ia d o� in less than 20 month ,s and prove d to be a valuable onetime investment. Moreover, the company was able to largely improvethe flexibility of eht notification engine compared to a thir -d party one. Specifically, having full
t ssecca o the user data enables sending out notifications based on the users’ recent activity,accordingly target specific segments via personified notification .s
2. Local an gd loba pl ositioningDue to the interstate legal restrictions in the gambling sphere, the team hadto implement a set of local zi ation services. GPS services allow us to locate the users within na accuracy of 20 meters. Custom geofencing prevents the users from
cca essing the buil -t in games or services outside of specific zones where this kind of gaming is allowed (separate cities, casino areas, etc.). The system fully complieswith US federal law .
3. iBeaco sn ervic ie ntegrationUsing the distributed network of Bluetooth Low Energy devices (Beacons) the systemcommunicates with the users via indoor navigation and locatio -n based activity (pushnotifications, chec -k ins). The Beacons are installed on the premises of the casinos and used to push reminders, special deal ,s or promoted content to the user ;s C reating meaningful contextual experiences, driving engagement and revenu .e
4. Hig sh yste pm erformance an sd ustainabilityThe platform is developed using the best performance engineering practices, namelyworkload optimization, profiling and caching. Thus, the software can process over1 million requests daily without sacrificing the quality of performanc .e
Approach and T echnical I nfoWorking on the project from trats yrev eht , AltexSoft was involved in all stages of the process:
eR quirements specification, system visualization, and web development. A dedicated team o gnidulcni ,srebmem maet 5f Project Lead, Software Enginee sr ,tsylanA ssenisuB dna ,
was assigned to the project throughout the development cycle, with the UX and markup engineers being involved parttime.
Project T echnology stack included:

The duration of the project has amounted to 24 month ,s with the total scopeof work done close to 10 ma -n years.
