OREANDA-NEWS. June 25, 2015. accesso Technology Group plc (AIM: ACSO), the premier technology solutions provider to the leisure industry, has signed a five-year deal with Malaysia's newest theme park, Movie Animation Park Studios (MAPS), to install its patented smartphone-based queuing solution, QsmartSM. MAPS is scheduled to open in Perak, Malaysia by mid-2016.

During the first half of 2014, accesso signed a Memorandum of Understanding ("MOU") for the installation at MAPS, an agreement that saw the group begin to forge deeper ties with attractions in the important Asian market.

The Park will feature more than 40 rides, shows and attractions including the world's first DreamWorks-dedicated zone, Malaysia's tallest drop tower, and a thrilling live-action car stunt show.

Used by more than 11 million guests since 2001, accesso LoQueue virtual queuing technology solutions allow guests to queue without having to stand in line.  Instead, they reserve their place in a queue line electronically and are notified when it is their turn to ride. For attraction operators, this means increased guest satisfaction and increased revenues by unlocking guests from queue lines, allowing them to enjoy the rest of the attraction instead and spend time in retail and food and beverage outlets.

Commenting, Tom Burnet, Chief Executive Officer of accesso Technology Group plc said:

"MAPS is one of the most unique and exciting projects underway in the leisure and tourism industry in Malaysia, and we are thrilled with the role our technology will play in helping guests maximise their time in the park as well as drive incremental revenue for Movie Animation Theme Park Studios. Asia is the fastest-growing theme and water park market globally and we are excited our group can be a part of that".
