As mentioned in our previous blog, the American Gaming Association shared its new principles outlining the modernization of payments on the casino floor to provide structure around the industry’s regulations of digital payments. According to the AGA, these principles have “come at a time when the majority (57%) of past-year casino visitors report the option for digital or contactless payments on the casino floor is important to them” due to COVID-19.

In light of the pandemic, consumers may be hesitant to use traditional forms of wagering, like cash. To make patrons feel more comfortable, resorts and casinos should take proactive measures to offer safer payment options on the floor. While cashless gaming not only provides convenience and flexibility, it also promotes a safer gaming environment during a period of social distancing.
