"Operators have been asking for the ability to customize their own tournaments and to run them without the hassle and expense of purchasing new equipment,"said Bob Mills, Merit's Director of Network Business. "The ease and convenience of the TournaMAXX™ system provides just that, while delivering big returns into operators' pockets. TournaMAXX™ is a simple way for operators to place themselves above their competition."
TournaMAXX's™ simple requirements include a MAXX unit utilizing Diamond Edition software. Merit's Diamond Edition software has already proven overwhelmingly successful on its own, and Merit anticipates that, when combined with the TournaMAXX™ system, it will deliver a powerful 1-2 punch. By using TournaMAXX™, players can not only compete with one another at the local level on popular games such as Quiz Show™, Moondrop™, Boxxi™, TriTowers™, Power Trivia™ and many more, but they can also be ranked nationally and route-wide at the same time. And with Merit's upcoming Double Diamond Edition, a free upgrade of fresh content for Diamond Edition owners, the excitement will be even greater.
An existing phone line is all that's needed; no dedicated phone line is necessary. In most areas, the TournaMAXX™ system boasts a connection through AT&T®/B2000™, one of the finest Internet service providers in the world. This reliable connection is included in the TournaMAXX™ service and allows operators to access Merit's TournaMAXX™ website. Once connected to the site, an operator can view standings, check connection reports, update the books and change locations, all without having to leave the office. Merit's TournaMAXX™ field sales technicians are also available for on-site support and installation.
"A MAXX unit with Diamond Edition software and an existing phone line… is there an easier way to generate tremendous profits?" asked Mills.
Ongoing testing in both domestic and European markets has already proven that this simple system is rewarding operators on an unprecedented level. Instead of sharing the profits with Merit Industries, operators simply pay a low monthly fee and keep the extra earnings for themselves.
"The TournaMAXX™ system has already proven to be a gold mine," said Bob Mills. "By linking together the MAXX machines, we've opened up whole new avenues of endless promotional possibilities."
Mills added that customer requests for the TournaMAXX™ system have been flooding Merit Industries. "We expect the TournaMAXX™ system to continue to make our operators thrive and grow. And this is only the beginning."
Dave Myers, Merit's Vice President of Marketing and Business Development, expressed similar thoughts. "While other companies are investing in network systems alone, the TournaMAXX™ system will be but one facet of a fully integrated entertainment system. TournaMAXX™ is the latest tool from Merit Industries to help operators run their businesses more profitably, and it certainly won't be the last," he said. "The soon to be released TouchTunes interface that allows Megatouch Maxx players to pay for and select music from the game, as well as the upcoming daily downloadable content features are just a few of the profitable opportunities that will be afforded the progressive "Connected Operator". Merit is not betting its future on "tournaments". We will continue to produce quality, high-earning software with enhanced features and benefits to help our operator partners make more money. TournaMAXX™ is the first reason to get connected – and many more reasons will follow."
