STERN PINBALL LAUNCHES NEW INSIDER CONNECTED™ FEATURES

Launch Parties and Operator Machine Tech Alerts

CHICAGO, IL – October 26, 2022 – Stern Pinball, Inc. expands its award-winning Insider Connected platform with new features benefiting both players and operators across home and commercial environments.  New features launched today include official Insider Connected launch parties and operator machine tech alerts.

Beginning with James Bond 007, Stern launch parties are even better with Insider Connected. Upon logging into their Insider Connected account, players will be able to discover official launch parties near them.  By scanning in and playing on any connected machine at an official launch party, players will be able to achieve a special digital Launch Party Badge on their profile.  It’s more fun to compete!

Operators with Insider Connected Professional accounts can register their entertainment locations for discovery by players on Insider Connected.  Official launch parties at these locations will be showcased both on the player homepage and in the location directory.  As an additional perk to hosting an official launch party, locations will automatically have a high score leaderboard generated on their James Bond 007 pinball machines, driving repeat gameplay and new player participation.  This will extend any Insider Connected Pro operator’s location entertainment experience which will drive revenue and excitement. To become an official Stern launch party location, please reach out to sternarmy@sternpinball.com.

With operator machine tech alerts, Insider Connected Pro operators can now view tech alerts at any of their connected locations from their Insider Connected account.  This includes alert history as well as critical events like the opening of a coin door.  Tech alerts help operators monitor a machine’s health remotely, allowing operators to improve uptime and reduce the cost of unnecessary service checks, improving revenue and reducing service trip costs.

It’s never been easier to register for Insider Connected, available at insider.sternpinball.com. Players can also register at any connected game by scanning a QR code. Get connected today!  To become an Insider Connected Professional, submit an application at insider.sternpinball.com/pro.
