Momento Hospitality Group’s, The Governor, located in the diverse business and university district of Macquarie Park, has today introduced OK2PLAY? for all patrons of the venue. Holding the community at the heart of its operations is the fundamental basis of all of Momento Hospitality Group’s functionality and success. As a pioneering and leading hospitality group, with venues located strategically across Sydney, Momento Hospitality Group’s core focus is on delivering high quality experiences in food, beverages and entertainment to its patrons. In holding this position in the community, the introduction of OK2PLAY? is an obvious step for The Governor, in terms of player protection, staff protection and putting the community first. Momento Hospitality Group understands the genuine connection between their venues, and the locals is paramount . They have set high standards to earn the trust of their communities. In implementing OK2PLAY?, The Governor is ensuring this meaningful connection between their patrons and their staff is maintained and the hospitality group is taking their social licence seriously. “We are humbled by Momento Hospitality Group taking on the technology platform,  OK2PLAY?, commencing with The Governor,” Bryan Te Wani, CEO, GPT, states. “As market leaders, they see the importance of their customers, staff, patrons and the industry as a whole, as a priority in everything they do.”

Australian technology company, GPT’s new digital platform, OK2PLAY? has launched in hospitality venues across NSW in the past month and is set to roll out in Queensland venues, commencing in October. The non-intrusive OK2PLAY? technology, allows hospitality venues to assist patrons who are not feeling OK, to seek guidance to counsel whilst still within hospitality venues.  OK2PLAY? assists hospitality venues to provide patrons with real time assistance when it is required, after patrons are asked through digital prompts if they are OK2PLAY?  For those who are, their entertainment experience remains unchanged, but for those who respond “no”, a senior member of staff, who is on site at that time, can connect with patrons and start a conversation about how they are feeling and can guide the patron to support services. OK2PLAY? allows a senior member of staff to have a meaningful conversation with their patrons, breaking down the barriers of having to physically approach staff for assistance and normalises the conversation, ensuring it is socially acceptable to ask for help.

The rollout of the new technology platform, OK2PLAY? continues across Australia as the Central Coast Leagues Club introduces the initiative to patrons this week. Developed by the Australian technology company GPT, OK2PLAY? allows patrons who may not feel “OK” to access support in real time, making OK2PLAY? the most advanced player protection digital platform in the world. “I’m glad to be one of the first Clubs to implement OK2PLAY?,” CEO, Mr  Edward Camilleri, Central Coast Leagues Club, says.  “The purpose is for members to feel secure, and if they do have a problem and they are a bit shy in talking to our staff and trained personnel, this is a way they can go to an easy touch and get help fairly quickly.” “Mental Health sits very highly in terms of our priorities to all patrons of Central Coast Leagues Club. People have all types of stresses in life, mental health is a big issue, both for the young and old and if this Club and our staff can be of assistance to them, then I am all for it,” Mr Camilleri, explains.

In an industry leading first, Sporties has implemented a player protection platform designed to assist both members and staff, by asking a patron; Are You OK2PLAY? OK2PLAY? is a world leading technology platform, built by Australian Tech Company, GPT, that has been developed to increase the speed of response between a patron of a venue and staff, creating the pathway for connecting patrons to assistance in a discreet, seamless, and frictionless manner, in real time. “As part of our ongoing care and commitment to exceed the expectations of our Members, ensuring the valued member experience, it is our pleasure to announce we have introduced the new OK2PLAY? technology platform into our venue,” Mr Jeff Gibbs, CEO, Sporties, explains. “For a member or guest to the Club, it is a very easy process of simply pressing yes or no to ‘OK2Play’, allowing our staff to assist in the implementation of the appropriate steps, if required.” “We have embraced this leading technology for the wellbeing of all our patrons and the fact that it is easy for members and guests to use, is discreet, and totally confidential, is a huge step forward in this area.” “We are proud to act as a discreet and empathetic channel for those seeking further help. It is the goal of Sporties to not only make it socially acceptable to ask for help, but to normalise the conversation and protect the member experience within our venue.” Mr Gibbs, says.
