What Quixant does

Quixant is a UK-headquartered designer and manufacturer of PC-based gaming hardware platforms serving the global land-based casino gaming, sports betting, and route gaming industries. The company operates as a brand within Nexteq plc (LSE: NXQ) alongside sister brand Densitron for custom displays. Its tiered product portfolio comprises QMAX (flagship, Intel Core i5/i7-based), the IQON all-in-one range (IQON 3 and IQON 3 Air on AMD Ryzen 8000 with XDNA NPU and RDNA 3 graphics, plus IQON 2 on Intel Core and IQON 1 Air on AMD Ryzen R1000/V1000), and the cost-effective IQ range including the JAMMA-equipped IQ Connect 1 for North American route gaming. All platforms ship with a proprietary embedded Software Suite delivering regulatory compliance libraries, game APIs, security, and system management; the Launchpad software platform extends this stack to game developers by handling SAS, xSeries, QCOM, PAGCOR, and G2S protocol integration.

The technology stack combines hardware platforms with turnkey cabinets (Quantum gaming cabinet, Qinetic sportsbook kiosk), peripherals (LED controllers, audio amplifiers), and 4K monitors to deliver deployment-ready systems certified to GLI-11 across major global gaming jurisdictions with 10-year supply commitments on flagship products and battery-free MRAM options. Manufacturing is concentrated in Taiwan and Malaysia for supply-chain resilience, with an embedded Software Suite field-proven over 20+ years in regulated gaming environments.

Quixant sells exclusively through direct enterprise engagement with gaming manufacturers, OEMs, and operators, supported by a global Technology and Customer Integration (TCI) team that handles onboarding, integration, firmware/BIOS customization, and regulatory guidance. Named customers include Ainsworth Game Technology and Blueprint Operations for casino slot machines and cabinets. The go-to-market is anchored in industry trade shows (ICE, G2E, OIGA, SAEE, SBC Summit Rio, SiGMA Americas, iGB Live, INTERAZAR), regional sales leadership (VPs for EMEA, North America/Indian Gaming, and Spain/LatAm), and channel partnerships including Novatrade in Brazil. Revenue is generated primarily through hardware platform sales and bundled embedded software, with growing exposure to turnkey cabinets, kiosks, and software licensing via Launchpad.
