What it is

We stream live data to your Alpha LED ticker. We have a large variety of data you can choose from. From standard news including headlines, weather, stocks and sports to social media integration with twitter.

Who needs one

Any business with a retail location that customers visit. Your customers will love reading the ticker while waiting in line. With our new social features they can even interact with the ticker via twitter.

How it works

First you need one of our custom feeder boxes. The feeder will connect to any Alpha LED ticker. It also needs to connect to the internet via an ethernet connection. Once your feeder is connected your ticker is ready to go. Configure your feeds via our webpage or use our API to control your feeds with your own software.
