Access Corporation Offers Cost Effective Turnkey Gaming Solutions
Added: (Thu Nov 12 2009)
Access Corporation, one of the leading resource providers of online gaming has introduced cost effective turnkey gaming solutions. Announcing this to the press Mr. Vince Van Horn, the Vice-President of operations for Access Corporation said that there was a gap in the demand and supply of quality resource providers for setting-up online poker portals and Access Corporation will fill this space. He said that more than a decade of experience in setting-up gaming operations for leading operators has given Access Corporation adequate experience in launching cost effective turnkey gaming solutions. Setting up an online gaming business is not an easy task which operators can pull off quickly. It requires proper strategy and knowledge of the business to successfully run an online gaming operation.
There are different licensing options that are available for entrepreneurs depending upon their requirements for an online casino, sportsbook or poker room. In a one-time fee licensing the gaming operator would get the license of the gaming software for a lifetime which includes upgrades to the software. The advantage of a one-time license is that operators do not have to pay recurring fees for renewing the license. This option is more suitable for the large players who can afford the upfront payment. Access Corporation offers one-time licensing options to gaming operators for a fee starting at $25,000 and upwards. Mr. Vince Horn said that the return on a one time fee can be quickly recovered with proper marketing and promotional strategies. With a few hundred active players it is possible to start generating decent revenues.
The White Label option is a more cost effective option (starting at just $10,000) of launching an online poker operation. It can be considered similar to a branch operation of a larger poker company, the only difference here is that the branch can have its own branding. Mr. Van Horn said that the time is ripe for smaller players to grab a share of the online poker market. While the big players in the online poker scene like Poker Stars and Full Tilt generate hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue there is enough opportunity for the small players. With companies like Access Corporation providing all the necessary resources required to start an online poker operation, it has become really simple for operators to quickly launch their online poker rooms. The right marketing and promotional strategies can generate revenues quickly for new online gaming operators.
The most cost effective option offered by Access Corporation is the affiliate route. In this option, the operator does not have to buy or lease a license but can use the license of a primary operator. In some cases the licensee only designs a banner for the affiliate and pays a small percentage of the revenue but in some cases a website is designed for the affiliate with their own branding. Mr. Vince Horn also added that with the opening of regulatory restrictions in many countries, online poker can go on to become a very profitable online investment.
