AYO kicks off the new season with Sportpool

Betting enthusiasts at Sportpool approached a Newcastle-based web development company AYO Media with a highly demanding project and an equally ambitious deadline for its delivery.

The client requested an August launch for the sports pools website, in time for the beginning of the 2010/2011 football season. This tight deadline only gave the AYO Media development team 3 months to deliver a fully tested and fully functional web application.

AYO Media, http://www.ayomedia.co.uk worked in partnership with Keltie Cochrane, http://keltiecochrane.com/ ,who created the user interface design and the Sportpool brand to deliver a unique pool betting website dedicated to multiple sports.

Sportpool, http://www.sportpool.co.uk/ ,is the first multi-sport pool betting operator in the UK, operating exclusively online. The system combines live sporting events, fund raising and the excitement associated with the potential to win large sums of money from a £2 stake.

As well as running the prediction competition a percentage of the profits generated by the pool is donated to various good causes. Good causes can be suggested by people who have signed up to play sport six and money is won by individual who correctly predict four, five or six outcomes from the six multiple choice questions.

Jackpot winners who predict all six questions correctly will have a share of the minimum £10,000 jackpot. SportSix is the first of many games that will be offered by the Sportpool team; future plans for this product involve more games, an SMS service and mobile device development.

AYO Media Becomes a Technology Pioneer

Newcastle based web development agency, AYO Media has become a North East technology pioneer by achieving Citrix Solution Advisory status coupled with developing a series of innovative business applications.

AYO Media, launched in 2008 by three local entrepreneurs, has strengthened its position as a forward-thinking company by joining forces with software giant Citrix in their bid to offer innovative virtualised solutions in the North East.

Citrix has revolutionised computing with desktop virtualization, application virtualization, server virtualization, application networking, cloud computing and Software as a Service offerings radically simplifying computing for millions of users, delivering applications as an on-demand service to any user, in any location on any device.

Rob Mathieson, the Managing Director of AYO Media, said: “We are very excited to be cooperating with Citrix.

As a Citrix partner, AYO Media will be able to sell and deliver Citrix products, providing all our clients with these effective solutions.”

The drive for AYO Media to be at the forefront of technology doesn’t end here. Over the past two and a half months the web development agency has produced applications for its business clients, which include an iPad application and a Proof of Concept multiplatform mobile device application.

As mobile integration has grown to become a key objective for most businesses, AYO Media has recently delivered a mobile SMS service for their client Utilitiesin1.com. The service enables Utilitiesin1.com customers to text in their gas and electricity meter readings. Once received, the text message is broken down and the individual values are automatically logged into the database and an estimate bill can be generated off the back of this process.

Kevin Reece, Technical Director at AYO Media, said: “Working with forward- thinking companies such as Utilitiesin1.com, AAF Ltd and Tipstar has given us the opportunity to develop applications on the latest devices and use the latest technologies whilst doing so.

Along with our day-to-day web development, we also develop products that really make a difference, helping businesses perform better, saving both time and money.

We look forward to delivering more of these wonderful apps in the future!”

AYO Media is a leading web development agency based in Newcastle upon Tyne. Specialising in web applications, ecommerce development, online branding, online marketing, web design and virtualisation, AYO Media delivers bespoke solutions to the North East businesses.
