Lynx Automatics supply Touchscreen SWP Games Machines and Quiz Machines to Clubs, Pubs, Leisure Centres, Cafes and Canteens throughout Lincolnshire.

Skill With Prizes (SWP) machines were introduced to the UK in the mid 80’s, and their popularity and takings continues to grow year on year.

Most SWP’s are based on a question and answer format, often taking the theme of popular television quizzes. The questions, which are from various categories, have to be answered within a certain time limit. The more successful the players are, the greater prize value is won.

Although SWP’s pay out prizes, for legal purposes they are defined as games of skill, as there is no element of chance in them.

They call for a combination of quick mental and physical reflexes, together with a wide range of general knowledge. They have a unique appeal, enhanced by their association with popular TV shows.

SWP’s are most popular amongst younger customers and particularly in pubs frequented by students. They are often played by more than one person at a time, and therefore additional space may be needed.

Please note that all our SWP machines are fully compliant with the recent changes laid out by HMRC.
