Fully aware of the profound changes taking place in the global marketplace, Glory Technology has made a series of astute investments and formed strong strategic alliances with international partners. This has enabled the company to establish the UGS system (Universal Game System) as an internationally active platform. UGS is owned 100% by Glory Technology, including all software code.

H T 2004 Following an agreement signed between Glory Technology and public company Multirama SA, Glory Technology successfully completed the installation of the UGS system at the Olympic Lottery of Uzbekistan, with a central system and the first three hundred of a total installation of one thousand UGS terminals.

2005

Development and growth

Glory Technology began the implementation of the first part of an installation of the UGS system for fixed odds numerical games and risk management applications in the UK.

2003 Glory Technology obtained official licensing from the Ministry of Finance in the Republic of Cyprus to install and operate the UGS system in Cyprus – the first company to gain such a license in relation to integrated turnkey solutions for games of chance. This followed an exhaustive selection and approval process which lasted eighteen months and involved many departments of the Ministry of Finance including audit and IT committees.

The company began the supply and installation of UGS systems in Cyprus to OPAP GLORY, a subsidiary company of OPAP SA, as part of a signed agreement valid until 2010 with an option for 3 more years. This includes integrated turnkey solutions with a central system and UGS terminals, for games of fixed odds and risk management services.

The company was awarded the Cyprus Export Merit for Services for the year 2004, conferred at a special ceremony by the President of the Republic of Cyprus H.E. Mr Tassos Papadopoulos.

2006 Glory Technology fully launched its services into the UK market with a high-impact and highly acclaimed stand at the Betting Show at the National Exhibition Centre in Birmingham.

Glory Technology now has an active installed customer base in Cyprus, Uzbekistan, Republic of Serbia, Republic of Moldova and UK.

Operational efficiency and management information Glory Technology’s Universal Game System offers many cost-saving advantages over traditional systems. The facility to print personalized coupons in any shop reduces waste, stationery costs, transportation and security services payments. Similarly, rapid and secure online communications between terminals and the central UGS system can save the running costs of old-fashioned fax and Photobet machines.

The main advantage of the UGS system is the provision of all the critical information needed for real-time business monitoring – helping operators to maximize profits while minimizing risks. Bets or lottery sales at each location are immediately available and viewable remotely - giving management instant access to data and reporting for better decision-making and rapid response. Liabilities can be seen at a glance – enabling operators to observe bets as they build up, check event popularity and percentage of stake, and enter hypothetical results to view payout. The options are unlimited, and the search combinations endless.

Shop management is also easier, with instant and error-free settling of bets. Online shop transactions consolidated into daily or weekly reports provide all the management information needed to run the business effectively, profitably and professionally. UGS also enables operators to offer and change their own odds, special offers and bonuses – with variation between shops so they can do business in the most effective and competitive way.

Unique open architecture The unique open architecture of the UGS platform can integrate a broad spectrum of best-in-class third party software and hardware.

This provides clients with the power and flexibility to continuously upgrade their systems, achieving higher performance and control over their entire enterprise. The platform has been developed using the latest development tools such as Java, J2EE and IBM WebSphere, ensuring secure, high-speed, online transactions as well as dynamic adaptability to future technology changes and opportunities.

Retailer accounting and applications can be easily integrated, allowing highly modular, flexible solutions to meet varied business practices.

Y C N E I C I F EF

Ability to grow UGS solutions operate on a variety of platforms, independent of limiting hardware and software environments. They can be easily moved to new platforms without costly software modiďŹ cations or system upgrades.

Maximum exibility The UGS platform enables client organisations to interface easily with the technology and infrastructure used by their retailers and outlets, rather than having their options limited by proprietary systems.

Processing powerhouse To meet the critical importance of fast transaction processing and uninterrupted 24-hour availability, the UGS platform uses operating systems that support up to 32 CPUs: more than four times the capacity of other providers.

Ironclad security With ironclad security at point of sale, and additional layers of security and control at the processing and application levels, the UGS system is one of the most secure solutions ever devised.

Inbuilt protection for high security

UGS terminals have an array of built-in security and protection features. These include fingerprint security to prevent unauthorized access, a security locking mechanism to prevent access to internal components, secure and monitored user authorization via unique password, and terminal authorization that uniquely identiďŹ es each machine in each shop.

Integrated turnkey solutions The UGS family of terminals are at the very forefront of technological performance and low operating cost.

They meet the needs of lotteries, retailers, betting shops and players alike. Supplied as fully integrated, turnkey solutions, all the hardware and software is conďŹ gured to work perfectly together - ready to plug and play. They are fully upgradeable with new game software, third party applications and additional memory.

Every transaction is encrypted before entering the communications network and is decrypted only after being received by the central UGS system.

Triple security encryption using 3DES security algorithm protects these communications which are handled outside of any communications protocol or data link, making them far less susceptible to attack. UGS’s Linux operating system is recognised worldwide for its superior security protection.

In self-service terminals, an alarm will sound in the event of unauthorised access or tampering. Safe and ruggedly built, they are designed for use in public venues such as shopping centres and supermarkets.
