accesso Technology Group plc has agreed a funding facility worth up to £50 million with HSBC.

The listed firm provides tech for ticketing, point of sale and other aspects of guest experience for the leisure and attractions sector.

A new $40 million revolving credit facility has a four-year term to May 2027 and is accompanied by a $20m ‘accordion option’ which the group may utilise as it pursues its strategic plan into the mid-term, accesso said.

The HSBC facility replaces the group’s undrawn £18m arrangement with Investec from March 2021.

Known as a provider of tech for theme parks, it has broadened its reach into ski resorts, concerts and the arts, and other cultural attractions.
