Reward Players In Real-Time with On-Demand Coupons

There’s no doubt that the digital age has made everything better and faster. But when it comes to face-to-face communication with customers, nothing beats the real thing. That’s why TransAct created Epicentral Mobile Host. The first technology of its kind that allows casino hosts to personally thank both carded and uncarded players with rewards and coupons printed right on the machine they’re playing on. Once paired with Epicentral®, supervisors can give pre-set quotas for available coupons to their casino staff with the ability to track the progress of each coupon from the time it’s printed to the time it’s redeemed. With the access to quickly see the status of Epic printers and active players on any handheld device, Epicentral Mobile Host is the perfect companion for casino hosts.

A Faster and Smarter Promotional Couponing System

Casinos are striving for a one-of-a-kind gaming experience for their players and this is possible by creating innovative promotions that will stand out against any competitor. Epicentral is TransAct’s promotional bonusing software suite with its latest version available on a web-based platform, Epicentral can help any casino reach an even broader audience by increasing revenues by targeting all customers while they play. Multiple promotional campaigns with unique coupons can be printed from every Epic printer on the floor and straight into the player’s hand. Epicentral extends time-on-device, increases player spending, and generates increased customer loyalty. Making it easier to track every promotion so operators can receive as much information and insight as possible, Epicentral can help casinos make data-driven business decisions.
