Aristocrat is the largest gambling machine manufacturer in Australia, and one of the largest manufacturers of slot machines in the world, currently second only to International Game Technology.[citation needed]
History[edit]
The company produced its first machine in 1953, and was listed on the Australian Stock Exchange in 1996. The company was founded by Len Ainsworth, whose family[1] maintains a substantial stake in the company, but is now chairman of a different gaming company, Ainsworth Game Technology. Aristocrat is licensed to distribute slot machines and other gaming products in over 200 jurisdictions (note that many countries, such as Australia, have a number of different gaming-licence jurisdictions).
Aristocrat offers free pokies to play even with your Facebook friends. With the help of their sister company called Product Madness they have produced games like Heart of Vegas, an Aristocrat-powered social casino on Facebook.Aristocrat is certainly dedicated to keeping up with player demands, so you can always expect ground-breaking technology from the company. Aristocrat enjoys a well-earned reputation for outstanding performance and strong brand equity in more than 200 jurisdictions around the world. The diverse product line-up extends from electronic gaming machines to complete gaming solutions, including systems, services, electronic tables,. Aristocrat, the corporation was founded in 1953 and shortly afterwards released its first gaming cabinet - the Clubmaster. It was the first machine to introduce multi-line and scattered payouts - so when the NSW government legalised pokie machines in the late 50s Aristocrat ™ were right there with the best product, ready to capture the market!
Aristocrat's CEO blamed the US subprime mortgage crisis for poor financial results in 2008,[2] despite the fact that competing companies have experienced record growth[3] in the same time period. As a result of the expected drop in revenue, the CEO enacted sweeping budget cuts, including large-scale retrenchments of staff from all areas of the business.[4] The company again faced difficult market conditions in 2009 with its full year resulting in a net loss of $157.8 million.[5]
In 2011, the company reached an agreement with the AGLC to provide equipment and games for Alberta's video lottery terminal network.[6]
In July 2014 Aristocrat agreed to buy Video Gaming Technologies for about $1.3 billion to triple its North American business amid falling profit in Australia.[7] On August 10, 2017, it acquired mobile game developer Plarium for $500 million to enter into mobile gaming.[8] On November 30, 2017, it acquired mobile game developer Big Fish Games for US$990 million.[9]
Since March 2017, the CEO has been Trevor Croker, formerly executive vice president for global products, who succeeded Jamie Odell.[10][11]
Tesco no delivery slots at midnight night. When I look for a Tesco slot no hours are listed even if booked up, for several days. The dates move forward each day - ie the last shown date is 19th April, was 18th before midnight, but no slots appear. Yes, as long as this is no later than 11.45pm on the night before your delivery. Demand for our online home delivery slots is still extremely high, so we can't guarantee that you'll be able to get another slot in the coming days. What are you doing to help care homes?
In July 2019, Aristocrat sued Ainsworth, alleging that they had used proprietary code and media assets leaked by a former Aristocrat employee to produce a clone of its popular Lightning Link games.[12][13]
Products and partnerships[edit]

Aside from spinning reel slot machines, the company has interests in gambling systems (computerised network systems that manage slot machines), computerised card game simulations, electronic table games and linked jackpot systems (such as the patented Hyperlink systems). The company has developed the Reel Power system, where players buy reels instead of lines, win combinations in the standard configuration.
Aristocrat's most prominent products have been game setups which place large progressive jackpots over a number of machines, including its Lightning Link series. The series has seen substantial popularity, to the point that Aristocrat has licensed branded areas at several North American casinos dedicated exclusively to the machines.[14][13][12][15]
The company has a number of distribution partnerships, including Sammy Corporation in Japan.
In the U.S., Artistocrat has licensed titles to Grand Vision Gaming of Montana for use on video lottery terminals.[16]
