BLAST Bingo Management System (BMS)
BLAST BMS offers the latest in digital bingo content, while keeping the look and excitement of traditional bingo. BLAST BMS offers session bingo, specialty games such as YouPick, Bonanza, and Shutterboard along with a rich library of side games. BLAST BMS has an intuitive user experience that allows players to purchase digital bingo cards and play side games before, during, and after regular session bingo. For those who prefer to only play side games, session bingo is optional. In addition to an easy-to-view integrated flashboard, BLAST BMS also keeps players seamlessly informed of all progressive side game jackpots with up-to-the-minute jackpot feeds.
BLAST BMS provides operators with the functionality to highlight new games and upcoming events and a customizable carousel to tailor their entertainment center offerings (including food and beverage specials and embedded short promotional or community videos). For faster and smoother operations, BLAST BMS minimizes the number of keystrokes required to complete each transaction, quicker repeat sales features, and the option of issuing paper bingo inventory and cash floats on a session-by-session or daily basis depending on the needs of the operator.
BLAST BMS includes a full-featured wireless point of sale terminal that provides all the same functionality of a standard point of sale terminal, including top-ups, product sales, bingo verification, and more.
The scheduler gives operators the option to setup recurring sessions (much like a meeting request in calendar programs) so if the same session is played every day at the same time, it can be set it up once and it will schedule per your parameters: daily, weekly, or particular days.
With today's high operational costs, heightened security requirements, and the need for maximum flexibility, BLAST BMS back office can be cloud-hosted thus reducing on-prem hardware costs, providing greater security, and minimizing downtime.
Other key features include:
- Two-step secure account sign-in
- Responsible gaming controls
- Visible balance of cash available
- Clock to keep players aware of time on device
